Excerpts

I’m currently on another Eraserheads fix, and here’re a few of the songs that I especially like and the quotes that I appreciate.

Format:

Title, Album

"Quote"

Gatekeeper, Fruitcake

Tales so unordinary alien and strange, she talked about yuletide war and corruption, nuclear gift exchange. Talked about crime slime from the grapevine…

Ang Huling El Bimbo, Cutterpillow

Magkahawak ang ating kamay at walang kamalay-malay na tinuruan mo ang puso ko na umibig ng tunay.

Finetime, Cutterpillow

I hope we could spend more time together, a fe hours is better than ever. If we could only make it longer… the whole day would be fine.

Huwag mo nang itanong, Cutterpillow

Fieldt trip sa may pagawaan ng lapis ay katulad ng buhay natins, sa mahabang pilang mabagal at walang katuturan

Kamasupra, Cutterpillow

Sampung buwan akong di natutulog. Mahal kita pero miss na miss na miss ko na ang aking kama at ang amlupit kong unan.  Ba’t di ka na lang sumama? Hihiga tayo at kakanta.

Huwag kang matakot , ???

Huwag kang matakot na umibig at lumuha, kasama mo naman ako.

Pop Machine, ???

Lahat ay may pagasa sa pop machine

Magasin, Circus

Sana sa susunod na isyu ay centerfold ka na

Maselang Bahaghari, ???

Paglipas ng ulan ay mapapangiti ang araw, h’wag sanang mawala ang maselang bahaghari.

Minsan, ???

Ngunit kung sakaling mapadaan baka ikaw ay aking tawagan dahil minsan tayo ay naging tunay na magkaibigan.

Overdrive, Cutterpillow

Ginataang manok, ginataang gata, ginataang niyog… Ang sarap no?

Pare Ko, ???

Anong sarap, kami’ya naging magkaibigan, napuno ako ng pag-asa. Yun pala hanggang dun lang ang kaya, akala ko ay pwede pa. Masakit mang isipin, kailangang tanggapin, kung kelan ka naging seryoso saka ka nya gagaguhin.

Poor Man’s Grave, Cutterpillow

Dress me up in a coat and tie… Put me in a golden box, not a cross in a pile of rocks… ‘coz I don’t want to lie in a poor man’s grave.

Sa Wakas, Circus

Asan na ba kyo tignan ninyo ako, di nyo inakala na ako’y mananalo. Pero salamat na din sa inyo, sa wakas.

Shadow, Fruitcake

Shadow is my friend, he’ll be with me till theend. He won’t let me down, just chase me around. He won’t get on my nerves if it gets any worse… People are so strange everybody is deranged. Everytime I try tos peak they won’t get it for a week.

Waiting for the Bus, Cutterpillow

I’ll drink mybeer I’ll wipe my tears, southboundint he sky. Another crime another reason gets you everyday… Well I’m caught up in this stupid game that Ican’t play. It’s justa  waste of time, but I’m in it anyway.

Shake yer head, Ultraelectromagneticpop
I ain’t no stupid fighter I go for flower power. I’ve been running every race just to save my face yeah. SOI just shook my head and walked away.

Torpedo, Cutterpillow

‘wag mo naakong pilitin, ako ay walang lakas ng loob para tumanggi.

Fruitcake, Fruitcake

Take a bite, it’s alright. A little girl is travelling all alone, she ran away from home.

Spoliarium, Sticker happy

- Tinanong kung ok lang ako sabay abot ng baso.

- At ngayon di pa rin alam kung ba’t tayo nandito. Pwede bang itigil muna ang pagikot ngmundo.

Hard to believe, Sticker happy

I find it hard to believe, when someone told me that your suffering is what you get for living. I wanted life to be this way, just a little bit of love could mean so much. Oh please don’t take it all away, ‘coz withoyu heaven is still close enough to touch.

Superproxy, Cutterpillow

Sawa ka na ba sa mga hassle sa buhay mo, ayaw mo na bang magisip para sa sarili? Hindi na dapat maghirap, sa iisang iglap ang buhay mo ay sasarap. Wag nang mag-atubili, kumuha na ng superproxy.

Para sa Masa, ???

I like the whole song so…

ito ay para sa mga masa
sa lahat ng nawalan ng pag-asa
sa lahat ng ng aming nakasama
sa lahat ng hirap at pagdurusa
naaalala nito pa ba
binigyan namin kayo ng ligaya
ilang taon na ring lumipas
mga kulay ng mundo ay kumupas
marami na rin ang mga pagbabago
di maiiwasan pagkat tayo ay tao lamang
mapapatawad mo ba ako
kung hindi ko sinunod ang gusto mo
la la la la la la la la. . . . . .
pinilit kong iahon ka
ngunit ayaw mo namang sumama
ito ay para sa mga masa
sa lahat ng binaon ng sistema
sa lahat ng aming nakabarkada
sa lahat ng mahilig sa labsong at drama
sa lahat ng di marunong bumasa
sa lahat ng may problema sa skwela
sa lahat ng fans ni sharon cuneta
sa lahat ng may problema sa pera
sa lahat ng masa
huwag mong hayaang ganito

Lightyears, Fruitcake

I like this song more so…

Big dipper north of nowhere
Outside the room inside my mind
Look forward to tomorrow
But can i leave yesterday behind

How it feels so strange
To have grown and changed
Now it’s not the same

‘coz time, slips and slide into another place
And try, as we might to understand each other
Doesn’t really matter where you are
It always seem so far

‘coz you’re lightyears away
You’re lightyears away from me

Little dipper south of somewhere
It looks much closer than it really is
I held it in my hands
But you’re forever out of reach

Far as the eye can see
Nothing is meant to be

Doesn’t mean much to me

But oh, if i only had a rocket ship to fly
I’d be right there in a minute
But it doesn’t really matter where you are
However near is still so far

‘coz when you’re lightyears away
You’re lightyears away from me

Far as the eye can see
Nothing is meant to be
Doesn’t mean much to me

‘coz time, slips and slide into another place
And try, as we might to understand each other
Doesn’t really matter where you are
It always seem so far
‘coz you’re lightyears away
You’re lightyears away from me

Look forward to tomorrow
But can i leave yesterday behind
