Drain You (Nirvana Cover)

Bruno Cadillon (https://soundcloud.com/bruno-cadillon-847608847) proposed to me to write the lyrics turning into a song an instrumental track I had just uploaded to Soundcloud (Timelines, here: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/timelines-final-draft). 
And here we have the song (see also https://soundcloud.com/bruno-cadillon-847608847/comment-fais-tu-ca-michele-ansanicab): is dedicated to Pierre Bonnard, a French painter (1867-1947) of the Nabis group, a post-impressionist movement. 
Thanks to Bruno - the piece is sung by him -, a true and versatile artist.

LYRICS

Commet fais-tu, ça, Pierre
Donner tant de vie
Commet fais-tu, ça, dis 

Derrière ta fenêtre
Il y a
Tant de couleurs claires
Tant de joies
Comment fais-tu ça, dis
Comment fais tu ça

Tous ces paysages  
Que tu voies
Ces chaises bancales
Cette simple table
Couleur sable

Toute cette douceur
cette chaleur
cela nous traverse
Nous transperce

Rester là peut-être
Que le temps s’arrête
Derrière ta fenêtre

Commet fais-tu ça pierre
D’un trait de lumière
Donner tant de vie

-----

How do you do that, Pierre
giving so much life
how do you do it, say 

Behind your window
There are
So many bright colours
So much joy
How do you do it, say
How do you do it

All these landscapes  
That you see
These wobbly chairs
This simple table
Brown and sandy

All that tenderness
all that warmth 
it goes through us
it pierces us

Stop there
maybe time may stand
behind that window

How do you do it, Pierre
To give the desire
How do you do it, say ... 

How can you, Pierre
With a stroke of light
To give so much life

Comment fais-tu ça [Michele Ansani & Bruno Cadillon]**

P-The Third Eye

Take your pills and go to sleep,
flick the switch and shut it down

Found space junk in the yard one day,
and you’re just sitting there,
with alien stuff everywhere

There’s bits of scrap in the trees my love,
and something strange in the pool

This could well be the end my dear,
and you’re just sitting there,
with alien stuff everywhere

In the Depths of Despair, I Wander

Don't take my picture.
There's a cop behind the lens.
I'm not sayin' that I'm doin' something bad but,
I guess the less they know, the better off I am.

Somebody told me once, you should never wake a sleepwalker.

Don't take my picture
'cause I can't see behind the lens.
These internet privacy settings may be
the biggest oxymoron there has ever been.

Somebody told me once, you should never wake a sleepwalker.

I ain't now Socrates. I ain't no Cornell West.
I'm just a regular guy with a head up on my neck,
but I don't need no Einstein to see that times are changing.

And I ain't no Nietzsche. I ain't no Aristotle.
I'm just a regular guy sippin wisdom outta bottle,
but I don't need no Newton to see the gravity of things.

Somebody told me once, you should never wake a sleepwalker,
but never told me why or what would happen if I did.
So, you can bet I went ahead and woke a sleepwalker
and she thanked me, 'cause last time she fell down the steps.

Don't take my picture
and give it to this world to see
'cause I don't know much about this world,
but whoever runs it sure as hell knows you and me.

Somebody told me once, you should never wake a sleepwalker.

I ain't now Socrates. I ain't no Cornell West.
I'm just a regular guy with a head up on my neck,
but I don't need no Einstein to see that times are changing.

And I ain't no Nietzsche. I ain't no Aristotle.
I'm just a regular guy sippin wisdom outta bottle,
but I don't need no Newton to see the gravity of things.

Somebody told me once, you should never wake a sleepwalker,
but never told me why or what would happen if I did.
So, you can bet I went ahead and woke a sleepwalker
and she thanked me, 'cause last time she fell down the steps.
