It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) - Caetano Veloso[00:00:00]

Darkness at the break of noon[00:00:03]

Shadows even the silver spoon[00:00:06]

The handmade blade the child's balloon[00:00:09]

Eclipses both the sun and moon[00:00:12]

To understand you know too soon[00:00:15]

There is no sense in trying[00:00:18]

Pointed threats they bluff with scorn[00:00:22]

Suicide remarks are torn[00:00:25]

From the fool's gold mouthpiece the hollow horn[00:00:28]

Plays wasted words proves to warn[00:00:31]

That he not busy being born[00:00:34]

Is busy dying[00:00:37]

Temptation's page flies out the door[00:00:40]

You follow find yourself at war[00:00:43]

Watch waterfalls of pity roar[00:00:46]

You feel to moan but unlike before[00:00:49]

You discover that you'd just be one more person crying[00:00:52]

So don't fear if you hear[00:00:58]

A foreign sound to your ear[00:01:04]

It's alright Ma[00:01:11]

I'm only sighing[00:01:15]

As some warn victory some downfall[00:01:22]

Private reasons great or small[00:01:25]

Can be seen in the eyes of those that call[00:01:28]

To make all that should be killed to crawl[00:01:31]

While others say don't hate nothing at all except hatred[00:01:34]

Disillusioned words like bullets bark[00:01:40]

As human gods aim for their mark[00:01:43]

Make everything from toy guns that spark[00:01:46]

To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark[00:01:49]

It's easy to see without looking too far[00:01:52]

That not much is really sacred[00:01:55]

While preachers preach of evil fates[00:01:59]

Teachers teach that knowledge waits[00:02:02]

Can lead to hundred dollar plates[00:02:05]

Goodness hides behind it's gates[00:02:08]

But even the president of the United States[00:02:11]

Sometimes must have to stand naked[00:02:14]

And though the rules of the road have been lodged[00:02:18]

It's only people's games that you got to dodge[00:02:24]

And it's alright Ma[00:02:31]

I can make it[00:02:36]

Advertising signs that con[00:02:42]

You into thinking you are the one[00:02:44]

That can do what's never been done[00:02:48]

That can win what's never been won[00:02:51]

Meantime life outside goes on all around you[00:02:53]

You lose yourself you reappear[00:03:00]

You suddenly find you got nothing to fear[00:03:03]

Alone you stand with nobody near[00:03:06]

When a trembling distant voice unclear[00:03:09]

Startles your sleeping ears to hear[00:03:12]

That somebody thinks they really found you[00:03:15]

A question in your nerves is lit[00:03:20]

Yet you know there is no answer to fit[00:03:22]

To satisfy insure you not to quit[00:03:25]

To keep it in your mind and not forget[00:03:29]

That it's not he or she or them[00:03:31]

Or it that you belong to[00:03:34]

Although the masters make the rules[00:03:37]

For the wise men and the fools[00:03:43]

I got nothing Ma[00:03:50]

To live up to[00:03:54]

Old lady judges watch people in pairs[00:04:01]

Limited in sex they dare[00:04:04]

To push fake morals insult and stare[00:04:07]

While money doesn't talk it swears[00:04:10]

Obscenity who really cares[00:04:13]

Propaganda all is phony[00:04:15]

While them that defend what they cannot see[00:04:21]

With a killer's pride security[00:04:23]

It blows the minds most bitterly[00:04:26]

For them that think death's honesty[00:04:30]

Won't fall upon them naturally[00:04:32]

Life sometimes must get lonely[00:04:35]

My eyes collide head-on with stuffed[00:04:40]

Graveyards false gods I scuff[00:04:44]

At pettiness which plays so rough[00:04:47]

Walk upside-down inside handcuffs[00:04:50]

Kick my legs to crash it off[00:04:52]

Say "Okay I've had enough[00:04:54]

What else can you show me "[00:04:57]

And if my thought-dreams could be seen[00:05:00]

They'd probably put my head in a guillotine[00:05:06]

But it's alright Ma[00:05:13]

It's life and life only[00:05:18]
