HO NOTATO...

... o meglio mi hanno fatto notare che quando c'è gente a casa metto sempre i Morphine, ma tipo 8 volte su 10. Infatti pare che abbia anche un po' rotto i coglioni. E' vero comunque e non so esattamente perchè. Forse perchè mi sembrano abbastanza fruibili da piacere quasi a chiunque. Forse perchè mi piacciono da morire (il mio preferito è The Night). Non saprei dire con certezza. Comunque è solo un pretesto per dire che Top Floor Bottom Buzzer è un pezzo che ti fa sentire l'aria calda e la leggerezza dell'Estate anche quando fuori c'è la nebbia (tipo oggi), un freddo cane (tipo ieri e oggi) e un cielo grigio ratto (tipo ieri, oggi e domani).

First we'll pick Priscilla up. And then we'll stop for Jane.

We're going to a party. Our friends will all be there.
I got the directions. It's across the river somewhere.

We rang the top floor, bottom buzzer.
Top floor, bottom buzzer. Top floor, bottom buzzer.
The middle won't work. Ring the one under.

Priscilla's in the kitchen she's mixing drinks.
She's mixing one for me I think.
And one for Mary Ellen and one for Jane.
Priscilla, she knows how to use a shaker.
She doesn't get up as early as a baker. Uh huh.

There's a muchacha, teaching me to mambo.
There's my buddy Pete eyeing a bowl of combos.
Ramona and a man do a tango dip. Cheek to cheek, hip to hip, come on.

The window's open it's the heart of the summer.
More people coming looking for the number.
Mary Ellen sees them she has a little stutter. She yells...

T-top floor, b-bottom buzzer. Top floor, bottom buzzer.
Top floor, bottom buzzer. Top floor, bottom buzzer.
The middle won't work. Ring the one under. Come on. Woo.

It was later it was after two.
We found a bottle of good chartreuse.
The lights were green and gold. We played Latin soul.
By the time Priscilla put the Al Green on the bottle was gone.

On the top floor, bottom buzzer.
Top floor, bottom buzzer. Top floor, bottom buzzer.
The middle won't work. Ring the one under. Come on. Woo.

Top floor, bottom buzzer. Top floor, bottom buzzer.
Top floor, bottom buzzer. The middle won't work. Ring the one under. Come on. Woo.
