Momento Glimmer Twins

Sem pretensão de me comparar aos grandes compositores, que forçados a compor ( chegaram a ser trancados na cozinha do hotel com o aviso de que só sairiam de lá com algo escrito no papel. Bendito seja o Oldham) criaram músicas legendárias. Então, me atrevendo a escrever após completar a leitura do livro Vida , de Keith Richards, segue o meu momento Glimmer twins, pseudônimo criado por Jagger e Richards para denominar a própria dupla, autora de todas as músicas dos Stones.





          Don't offer me a cigar today, 'cuz I migth say yes

   I've been walking
   boy, how I have
   I look around and it just
   blows me away
   How in hell can They be so selfish?
   How? I`m asking you.

   I start walking faster
  ' cause it seems to be better
   just ignore what`s 'round me
   It makes everything easier
   but the speed makes me panting 
   I gotta slow down. 
   So please, don`t offer me a cigar right now 'cause I might just take it
   Yes I`ll
   I`ll calm down
  in every smoke my nightmares will dissipate
  

    My worst fears will be gone
    But, no. Do not offer me that
    'Cause I'll say yes
    that's the easier way out
    It's an easy way to choose for living
    But I don't wanna live alienated
    I'd rather smoke my lugs off then not see
    what's been happening next to me.
    So yeah, offer me a cigar and I'll show you who you really are.
