Sua Magestade, El-Rei Tuno

No outro dia cheguei à brilhante conclusão de que Sua Magestade, El-Rei D. Dinis foi o primeiro tuno português...
Ora vejamos:
  1. Desistiu da guerra com Castela, em troca de Serpa e de Moura. Preferiu o queijo e o azeite do que andar à porrada... Era gourmet...
  2. Explorou as minas de cobre, prata, estanho e ferro. As canecas para o vinho tinham de vir de algum sítio....
  3. Criou as feiras francas, para promover a agricultura. Surgem as primeiras festas e arraiais de aldeia....
  4. Mandou plantar o Pinhal de Leiria. Madeira para as pipas, instrumentos e não só....
  5. Escreveu 137 cantigas trovadorescas. Era letrista e compositor, portanto...
  6. Decretou a Magna Charta Priveligiorum, fundando a Universidade de Coimbra. Surge o traje...
  7. Teve várias mulheres e filhos. Casou com uma santa....

Lullaby

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine... You make happy when skies are grey. I want to tell you how much I love you... Please, don't take my sunshine away!

Pearl's thoughts

Once upon a time, I could control myself...
I admit it.... What's to say...
I'm in it...Where do I stand? You turned my world to black.
Why do you wanna hurt me?
Don't you think you've done enough?
Don't you think you've got enough? Don't you think there's time to stop?
Some words when spoken...can't be taken back...
I try to forget this, to erase this,
But I just need to say... What can I take?
I know when I would not ever touch you, hold you, feel you in my arms... never again...
You must have been the devil and everything is you, you me, me you....
I swear I never took it for granted...
I am lost, I'm no guide but I'm by your side...
I just need someone to be there for me, because I'll stop trying to make a difference...
I sometimes realize I could only be as good as you'll let me... Wish I was the verb to trust and never let you down! I will give you what...you're not sposed to have...
I miss you all day....
I won't change direction and I won't change my mind! There's no leaving here...
I shut and locked the front door... No way in or out... I've had enough, said enough, felt enough...
Now, I'm in hidding!

A canção dos sapos

Esta é sem dúvida uma canção da minha infância... Quando ainda só existiam dois canais de televisão (e ainda não tinham inventado o Vitinho), mesmo antes do meu pai mandar o comando (eu!) mudar de canal para ver (outra vez) o telejornal, este era o último momento mágico da noite....

Win or lose,

sink or swim

One thing is certain we'll never give in

Side by side, hand in hand

We all stand together

Play the game, fight the fight

But what's the point on a beautiful night?

Arm in arm, hand in hand

We all stand together

Keeping us warm in the night

Walk in the night

You'll get it right

Win or lose, sink or swim

One thing is certain we'll never give in

Side by side, hand in hand

We all stand together

P. Mccartney, We all stand together
