E à fizeste o meu amor matar-se, ii. Embora também não solicitadas, as minhas respostas são versos de canções dos The National, para chatear o meu zombie querido e embirrar com a grande bisca lambida com a mania das correntes. A viúva.
um á: és homem ou mulher?
um bê: Karen, I’m not taking sides (in “Karen”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005).
dois á: descreve-te.
dois bê: underline everything, I’m a professional in my beloved white shirt (in “Squalor Victoria”, in Boxer, Beggars Banquet Records, 2007) e another uninnocent, elegant fall into the unmagnificent lives of adults (in “Mistaken for Strangers”, iin Boxer, Beggars Banquet Records, 2007).
três á: o que é que as pessoas acham de ti?
três bê: já me disseram you’re on the rocks in a two-piece suit (in “Anna Freud”, in The National, Brassland Records, 2001) e you’re cussing a storm in a cocktail dress your mother wore when she was young (in “Wasp nest”, in Cherry Tree, Brassland Records, 2004) e até me segredaram ao ouvido one time you were a good rabbit (in “Trophy wife”, in Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers, Brassland Records, 2003).
quatro á: como descreves o teu último relacionamento?
quatro bê: everything has all gone down wrong (in “Abel”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005), mas às vezes ainda pergunto if I were a spy in the world inside your head / would I be your wife in a better life you led? (in “Bitters & Absolut”, in The National, Brassland Records, 2001).
cinco á: descreve o estado actual da tua relação.
cinco bê: I melt like a witch and scream (in “Baby, we’ll be fine”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005), o que significa que we’ll fight like girls for our place at the table (in “The geese of Beverly road”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005).
seis á: onde querias estar agora?
seis bê: they say in this place you can reinvent yourself (in “You’ve done it again, Virginia”, in Lit Up, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005).
sete á: o que pensas a respeito do amor?
sete bê: nothing else moves that way, are you kidding me? (in “All dolled-up in straps”, in Cherry Tree, Brassland Records, 2004), mas, se tiver mesmo que ser, fill her coat with weapons and help her get it on (in “Val Jester”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005).
oito á: como é a tua vida?
oito bê: sigo o lema don’t be a nightingale for anyone’s space to fil (in “American Mary”, in The National, Brassland Records, 2001).
nove á: o que pedirias se pudesses ter só um desejo?
nove bê: não sei, algo entre burn yourself alive and join the monster squad (in “You’ve done it again, Virginia”, in Lit Up, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005) e I’m so sorry but the motorcade will have to go around me this time (in “All the wine”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005).
dez á: escreve uma frase sábia.
dez bê: bad blood for everybody (in “Lit up”, in Alligator, Beggars Banquet Records, 2005).
