Sing and Learn: Red Hot Chili Peppers

Sing and Learn: Red Hot Chili Peppers - Otherside

Всі ми знаємо, що санчата треба готувати влітку. А що ж тоді готувати взимку? А будь що! От я вас збираюся готувати до концерту гурту Red Hot Chili Peppers і розбирати їх пісню! Отже зустрічайте гарячу групу у першому зимовому випуску рубрики Sing and Learn.

[Chorus:]

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever
I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

[Chorus:]

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever

Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
I've got to take it on the otherside
Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for my soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

[Chorus:]

Turn me on take me for a hard ride
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that
It's not my friend
I tear it down I tear it down
And then it's born again

[Chorus:]
