Gedichte auf Englisch - Seite 21

It happened one night on the Atlantic
A huge ship called Titanic
Moving far too fast
Taking many lives at last
Believing it an unsinkable ship
With many on their last trip
People smoking, joking
Not concerned a bit
Until they felt the hit
Ripping six holes into the right side
Only 12 square feet wide
Women and children first
Leaving men for the worst
People worrying, hurrying
Slowly breaking into panic
Ice cold water filling up the Titanic
The weight pulling it into the deep
Forever there to keep
With no one close enough to help
But many there to hear them yelp
People dying, crying

I'm out here in the jungle
looking for some space
to find myself a secret place
I hear shouting and a rumble

I've killed a cat, I've killed a rat
but they're not after me for that
I've also killed a woman
her name was Trudy Trueman

I admit I wanted her dead
and I cut off her head
to bake a pie
they'll sentence me to die

I've never been to the jungle
I'm afraid to look back
suddenly I take a stumble
and everything turns black

I'm softly woke by birds
my head bleeds and it hurts
I'm near my house in the woods
I totally forgot that I took drugs

My whole life has been a frown
With my parents being careless
And watching my brother drown
It only could end up a mess

Me being alone
With a Fiesta the only thing I own
Life is hard when you're on the ground
And nothing left to keep you bound

Now with humans being greedy
Not caring about nature and the needy
They robbed the freedom of a soul
And put him into a windowed bowl

Besides why do they have the right
To tell me which drugs are right?
So I've got a bit of that and this
Probably the only thing I'll really miss

So I spend a day in the park
And eat my last meal
But really I'm just waiting for dark
He's pretty big, but it's no fear I feel

The setting sun makes me glad
When I take my pills
No wonder he went mad
After years of obeying their wills

I'll take a bath with Tilly
You don't know what I mean?
Just think about Free Willy
And over the pools edge I lean

The water is cold
I start to swim towards him with a grin
For this shit you've got to be bold
It's the whale who will win

The next morning my body was found
With Tilikum carrying me around
I now have left this world
And will never be returned

I just got done at ten
Listening to some music
My seat neighbour wants my pen
And I'm like 'use it'

So I spend my time looking at the sky
I still don't understand why planes fly
It got a bit loud and I notice smoke
I doubt this is a joke

Stewardesses are getting nervous
As we start falling towards the surface
I hear people shout and scream
I ask myself is this a dream?

'Oh God!
Don't let it end like this!
I swear I'll be better to Todd
And from now on the only woman I kiss
Will be Mary, my beloved wife
I won't again threaten them with a knife
And I promise, I'll stop beating
And start treating'

Suddenly the plane flies stable again
I almost have to vomit
When I think about what all I've promised
So fuck it – already waiting is Adrienne

It was just last summer
When I met a drummer
But it turned out a bummer

He wasn't the guy I thought he'd be
It feels like he only wanted to make me see
There will never be a ''we''

You were so cool
The night that we spent at the pool
And you totally knew how to work your tool

He made me feel like a queen
Like something I've never seen
Or somewhere I've never been

I was so sad
It almost drove me mad
And it's true: drummers are bad

Now you've left me behind
Why was I so blind
And I still can't get you off my mind
