Les paroles de GN'R Lies

par Eddie 26 Mai 2008, 09:20 Paroles Des Chansons


Je mets les paroles du 2ème album des Guns N' Roses : GN'R Lies cette album constitué de titre éléctrique capté en live qui figurait sur leur EP Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide (1986), et de titre acoustique.
Afin de compléter cette rubrique je mettrais un article sur le très controversé
One In A Million.


Reckless Life (Axl Rose/ Slash/ Izzy Stradlin/ Chris Weber) :

I'm reckless and feelin' no pain
You know I've got no need to control
Livin' with the danger
I'm always on the edge now
With million dollar visions that I hold
Livin' like this never ever
Tore my life apart
I know how to maintain
And you know I know my part

On a holiday, a permanent vacation
I'm living on a cigarette with wine
I'm never alone 'cause I've got myself
Yes, I imitate myself all of the time

Livin' like this never ever
Tore my life apart
I know how to maintain
'Cause it's comin' from my heart

I lead a reckless life
And I don't need your advice
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only vice

Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only...

Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know it's my only...
Hey, hey - yeah!


 
Nice Boys  (Rose Tattoo) :

She hit town like a rose in bloom
Smellin' sweet, said sweet perfume
The color faded and the petals died
Down in the city, no one cried
In the streets, the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
The roaches so big
You know that they got bones
They moved in and made a tenement home

I said nice boys
Don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'm not a nice boy!

Sweet sixteen she was fresh and clean
Wanted so bad to be part of the scene
She met the man and she did the smack
Paid the price layin' flat on her back
Wanted so bad just to please the boys
They ended up just being a toy
Played so hard burned her life away
Lies were told no promises made

You know nice boys
Don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'm not a nice boy and I never was!

Young and fresh when she hit town
Hot for kicks just to get around
But now she lays in a filthy room
She kills the pain with
A flick and a spoon
And in the streets the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
You know the roaches so big
You know that they got bones
Moved in and made a tenement home

Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no baby
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I bet your mama said
"Nice boys don't play rock and roll"
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys!

 Move To The City  (Izzy Stradlin/ Del James/ Chris Weber) :

You pack your bags
And you move to the city
There's somethin' missin' here at home
You fix your hair
And you're lookin' real pretty
It's time to get it out on your own
You're always fightin'
With your mama and you papa
Your family life is one big pain!
When you, you gonna move to the city?
Into the city where it all began

You gotta move, You gotta move
Ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma
Time you gotta move

You stole your mama's car
And your daddy's plastic credit card
You're sixteen and you can't get a job
You're not goin' very far
You're always ridin'
With the teachers and the police
This life is much too insane!
When you, you gonna move to the city?
Into the city where it all began

You gotta move, You gotta move
Ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma
Time you gotta move
Right to the city
Where the real men get it
Aw, child, ain't it a pity?
Sometimes it gets too shitty!
Come on and hit me!

You're on the streets
And it ain't so pretty
You need to get a new what you please
You do what you gotta do for the money
At times you end up on your knees!

I'm always buyin'
With the local and the junkies
This city life is one big pain!
But you, you had to move to the city
Into the city where it all began

You gotta move, you gotta move
Ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma,ma
Time you gotta move
Oh right to the city
With the real nitty gritty
Aw, child, ain't it a pity?
Sometimes it gets too shitty!
Come on and hit me!


Mama Kin 
(Aerosmith) :

It ain't easy livin' like a gypsy
Tell ya, honey, how it feels
I've been dreamin' floatin' down stream
And losin' touch with all that's real
Whole lotta lover, keepin' undercover
Never knowin' where you been-Oo yeah
You've been fadin', always out paradin'
Keep in touch with mama kin!

You always got your tail on the wag
Spittin' fire from your mouth
Just like a dragon
You act like a perpetual drag
You better check it out
'Cause someday soon
You'll have to climb back on the wagon

It ain't easy livin' like you wanna
It's so hard to find piece of mind
Yes it is
The way I see it
You got to say "shee-it"
But don't forget to drop me a line

Bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for daddy's such a drag
You still stuff your mouth
With his beans
You better check it out or someday soon
You'll have to climb back on the wagon

It ain't easy livin' like you wanna
It's so hard to find piece of mind
Yes it is
The way I see it
You got to say "shee-it"
But don't forget to drop me a line

It ain't easy livin' like you wanna
It's so hard to find piece of mind
Yes it is
The way I see it
You got to say "shee-it"
But don't forget to drop me a line

Bald as an egg at eighteen
And workin' for daddy's just a drag
You still stuff your mouth
With his beans
You better check it out or someday soon
You'll have to climb back on the wagon

It ain't easy livin' like you wanna
It's so hard to find piece of mind
Yes it is
The way I see it
You got to say "shee-it"
But don't forget to drop me a line

Patience (Izzy Stradlin) :

1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4

[Sifflement]

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you
I'm still all right to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt
You're in my heart now

Said, woman, take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, make it slow
And we come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
Patience
Mm, yeah

I sit here on the stairs
'Cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now
I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense
But I can't speed up the time
But you know, love
There's one more thing to consider

Said, woman, take it slow
And things'll be just fine
You an' I'll just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time
Because the lights are shining bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it
Oh, I'll never break it
'Cuz i can't take it

[Sifflement]
...Little patience, mm yeah, mm yeah
Need a little patience, yeah
Just a little patience, yeah
Some more patience, yeah
Need some patience, yeah
Could use some patience, yeah
Gotta have some patience, yeah
All it takes is patience
Just a little patience
Is all you need

I've been walkin' the streets at night
Just tryin' to get it right
Hard to see with so many around
You know I don't like
Being stuck in the crowd
And the streets don't change
But baby the name
I ain't got time for the game
'Cause I need you
Yeah, yeah, but I need you
Oooh, I need you
Whoa, I need you
Oooh, all this time
Ah

Used To Love Her (Izzy Stradlin/ Axl Rose) :

I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I had to put her
Six feet under
And i can still hear her complain


I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I knew i miss her
So i had to keep her
She's buried right in my back yard


I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I used to love her, but i had to kill her
She bitched so much
She drove me nuts
And now i'm happier this way


I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I used to love her, but i had to kill her
I had to put her
Six feet under
And i can still hear her complain

Chorus


You're Crazy
(Version acoustique) (Guns N' Roses) :

I been lookin' for a trace
Lookin' for a heart
Lookin' for a lover in a world
That's much too dark
You don't want my love
You want satisfaction
You don't need my love
You gotta find yourself another
Piece of the action, yeah

Said where you goin'
What you gonna do
I been lookin' everywhere
I been lookin' for you

You don't want my love
You want satisfaction
You don't need my love
You gotta find yourself another
Piece of the action
'Cause you're crazy
You're fuckin' crazy
Ya know you're crazy
I said you're crazy

Say boy where ya comin' from
Where'd ya get that point of view
When I was younger
Said I knew someone like you
And they said

You don't want my love
You want satisfaction
You don't need my love
You gotta find yourself another
Piece of the action
'Cause you're crazy
You're fuckin' crazy
Ya know you're crazy
I said you're crazy
Ooh you're crazy
You know you're crazy
Well you're crazy
You know you're crazy

You know you are
Bring it down
You're fuckin' crazy

 
One In A Million  (Axl Rose) :

1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4

[Sifflement]

Guess I needed sometime to get away
I needed some piece of mind
Some piece of mind that'll stay
So I thumbed it down to Sixth and L.A.
Maybe a Greyhound could be my way

Police and niggers, that's right
Get out of my way
Don't need to buy none of your
Gold chains today
I don't need no bracelets
Clamped in front of my back
Just need my ticket; 'til then
Won't you cut me some slack?

You're one in a million
Yeah, that's what you are
You're one in a million, babe
You're a shooting star
Maybe someday we'll see you
Before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you
But you were much too high
Much too high, much too high
Much too high, yes, ow!

Immigrants and faggots
They make no sense to me
They come to our country
And think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran
Or spread some fuckin' disease
They talk so many goddamn ways
It's all Greek to me

Well some say I'm lazy
And others say that's just me
Some say I'm crazy
I guess I'll always be
But it's been such a long time
Since I knew right from wrong
It's all the means to an end, I
I keep it movin' along

You're one in a million
Ooh, you're a shooting star
You're one in a million, babe
You know that you are
Maybe someday we'll see you, ooh
Ooh, before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you
But you were much too high
Much too high, ooh, much too high
Yeah
Much too high, huh, no, no, oh
Ow!

Radicals and racists
Don't point your finger at me
I'm a small town white boy
Just tryin' to make ends meet
Don't need your religion
Don't watch that much TV
Just makin' my livin', baby
Well that's enough for me

You're one in a million
Yeah that's what you are
You're one in a million, babe
You're a shooting star
Maybe someday we'll see you,
Before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you
But you were much too high
Much too high, ow, much too high
Much too high, much too high
Yeah, yeee, yeah, yeee, high!
Ow! Much too high
[Oh, much too high, ah
Much too high, ah, much too high
Much too high, ow, much too high]


La controverse autour de One In A Million :

La chanson One In A Million est une chanson très controversée du fait de ses paroles : Axl Rose y parle entre autres d'homosexualité ("faggots"), de racisme ("niggers")...Cela a déclenché une grande polémique autour du groupe. Il fut alors décidé unaniment dans le groupe de ne plus jouer cette chanson en live. Cela n'empêcha pas le ventes de l'album de décoller (12 millions d'exemplaires vendus). Axl Rose a ajouté : "J'ai seulement joué "One In A Million" deux fois en concert. Je ne la joue pas, car je pense qu'elle est trop dangereuse et je ne fais pas confiance aux gens avec ce morceau. Je ne fais pas confiance au public avec cette chanson. Je ne veux pas jouer "One In A Million" sur scène en sachant qu'il y a plein de gens dans la foule avec leurs préjugés, ça ne fera que mettre de l'huile sur le feu. C'est assez dur de faire face au fait que c'est sur le disque et que les gens l'utilisent à leur propre fin pour leurs propres préjugés. Je me pose la question tous les jours. Est-ce que je devrais la retirer? Est-ce que je la laisse pour le bien de l'intégrité artistique? Est-ce que je la retire et me censure moi même? Mais attends, je suis contre la censure. C'est vraiment un problème très difficile à affronter. Le seul moyen de l'affronter est de communiquer à ce sujet. Je n'aime pas les dégâts que fait cette chanson, je n'aime pas les préjugés, je n'aime pas le fait que la chanson attise les préjugés des gens, et c'est un problème pour moi.[...] "One In A Million" a continuellement été utilisé contre Guns N' Roses et contre moi même, peu importe ce que j'avais à dire à ce sujet. " Axl Rose a dit ,à propos des choses qu'il a dite contre les homosexuels, et a insisté sur le fait qu'il n'était pas homophobe, la preuve, selon lui, que ses idoles Elton John (NdlR: en lequel il s'est déguisé au début du clip de November Rain) et Freddie Mercury sont gays, ainsi que la tête de son label qui est bisexuel et gay. Mais il a aussi dit qu'il ne comprenait pas les homosexuels. Selon lui, ils vivent dans leur propre monde. En 1989, il donne une interview où il dit que pour lui le mot "niggers" ne voulait pas forcément dire quelqu'un de race noire.

commentaires

S
De toute manière, Axl s'est excusé... je ne vois pas pourquoi il ne la chante pas... c'est ridicule... il balance tout un tas de grossiertés dans leur chansons et il s'interdit de la jouer... c'est une chanson dans laquelle il dénonce cette connerie que les racistes et les homophobes développent... il ferait mieux de la chanter... Regardez Chinese Democracy... c'est encore plus polémique... il ne fait que rentrer dans la peau d'un mec complètement con qui balance des termes épineux... c'est une vieille polémique qui me les casse.... j'adore cette chanson... après, c'est une question de goût... un dernier exemple: Welcome to the Jungle... il défase les autorités, la corruption, et en plus ce sont les paroles d'un sdf... noir... alors franchement... d'you know the fuck you are?
