Nur Ein IX - Watertight

[Caravan Ray]

Watertight
The Tydon Docks

It's a family affair
A painful realisation that a giant rift is breaking us apart
We think it's only fair
that given your proclivities for wantonness
you leave our family hearth

Genocide and mutilation
Pollution and deforestation
Your actions leave our planet crumbling to dust
It is very clear that you're not one of us

Who called you "ape"?
You know that you're not worthy of the name
You never have done anything but bring our family shame
We've gathered up the evidence, and our case is watertight
Your taxonomic classification just isn't right

You know that it makes sense
They call you Homo sapiens
But when have you shown signs of sapience?
So we must say goodbye
And cast you out forever from
The Family Hominidae

(Backing vocals by various guest Family members)

Who called you "ape"?
You know that you're not worthy of the name
You never have done anything but bring our family shame
We've gathered up the evidence, and our case is watertight
Your taxonomic classification just isn't right

Gorillas and orang-utan have all come to agree
That there must be a be a drastic pruning of our ancient family tree
Chimpanzees and their cousins bonobo
Have come to the conclusion that you have to go

Watertight
words and music by Cavedwellers

Featuring
Django Phillips (glennny's son)- bridge vocals
Woody Phillips (glennny's brother)- guitar solo and end guitarmonies

verse 1
Aquinas was ingenious in knowing is from ought.
Hobbes mistrusted history, as the bloody English fought.
They did not hold water
Locke held tightly to his bounty, he was proud of what he got.

Chorus 1 & 3
Everything, Sensible
Everyone, Sleep tonight
Then again, Demonstrates
Full of Holes, Watertight

verse 2
Tommy A is a know it all, he’s top in every class
Tommy H talks funny and is always talking fast
they don’t like one another
Johnny is a bragger, and his toys are quite a blast

Chorus 2
Seems so, Defendable
wants to, if they can
damn straight, gravity
nets are, caught tonight

bridge
i made my own little holy grail out of yellow legos last night
my hands got covered in grape juice
because it was not watertight.

verse 3
Randi is so selfish that she barely knows I’m there
Freddie is a downer,and he does not seem to care
they do not hold water
Manny says he thinks he can’t, he never takes a dare

Chorus 4
Everything Seems so
Sensible Defendable
Everyone wants to
Sleep tonight if they can
Then again damn straight
Demonstrates gravity
Full of Holes nets are
Watertight caught tonight

WATERTIGHT

Vincent Von F (Featuring little baby Lola and Inés on voices)

A little explanation: the word "watertight" is used toghether with "alibi", forming an expression that has a similar meaning to "perfect alibi".


You're our tale
to be told
You're our map
unfold

You're our
watertight
alibi
to fight

You're the night
before
You're the morning
sun

You're our
watertight
alibi
to fight
You're just like
the reason lo live
the way for us
to win

And we watch you grow and grow and grow
and we watch you grow and grow and grow
what a beautiful way to get old.

[noma]

Nick Soma - Watertight featuring Kat (my sister)

Who cares if your answers are wrong or right,
If they think your alibi's watertight?
You live your life in patterns and scales,
With your fate decided by heads or tails.

And when you gaze at the sky tonight,
Are you pushed into a bout of fright?
'Cuz I can't stand to see you suffer this way,
As you turn your head and tell me it's OK.

You built this house with your own bare hands,
So you tell them, but no one understands.
They're passing by, and their words decay.
Your shield absorbs everything they say.
I know you're proud of that pod you got yourself stuck in,
But here I am, waiting for you
To shed your skin.

You need to grasp the concept, to see the whole.
So you say and get yourself a rubber soul.
You point a finger and you feel it sting.
Pointing back at you, it tears you from within.

You built this house with your own bare hands,
So you tell them, but no one understands.
They're passing by, and their words decay.
Your shield absorbs everything they say.
I know you're proud of that pod you got yourself stuck in,
But here I am, waiting for you
To shed your skin.

You put on a smile and tell me it's alright,
No need to worry, your life is watertight.
But I can't stand to see you suffer this way,
Come look me in the eyes, don't tell me it's OK.

So I'm not the only one who used that it's a pretty common expression though, I think.

[chocolatechips]

storms are swirling around
rumbling sound and lightning in sight
rain is pouring down
but it's alright, our love is watertight

lost and floating at sea
ocean surrounds and no one in sight
but our boat's got sails (and wind is free)
yes it's alright, our love is watertight

(instrumental)

yes it's alright, our love is watertight
yes it's alright, our love is watertight

[furrypedro]

Balance Lost
Featuring Charlie Rice (uncle) on saxophone

I'm scared, it's been 6 hours
There's no-one at the control tower
No radio, no morse code
I heard something in the torpedo room explode
We're listing 60 degrees
Tried to write, no light, I just can't see
Once the oxygen turns to C02
There's nothing more that I can do

They said it was unsinkable
They said it was watertight
You're not as smart as you think you are
Now were stuck here on the seabed
In a perpetual midnight

Vidya-Vidyayevo
Vidyaye-Vidyaye-Vidyayevo
Vidya-Vidyayevo
Vidyaye-Vidyaye-Vidyayevo
Vidya-Vidyayevo
Vidyaye-Vidyaye-Vidyayevo
Vidya-Vidyayevo
Vidyaye-Vidyaye-Vidyayevo

There's been a breach from the outside
Leaking hydrogen peroxide
Caused the kerosene fuel to rupture
Must've been a faulty construction
Maintenance procedures not followed
Inadequate training, it's time to swallow my pride
And admit we were wrong
And wait for a rescue that will never come

They said it was unsinkable
They said it was watertight
You're not as smart as you think you are
Now were stuck here on the seabed
In a perpetual midnight

[Manhattan Glutton]

Watertight - M.C. Glutton
Ft. Barb Kizzle, Ben Hizzle, and Scott Izzle

(Sorry, Carlo - there are a lot of puns. Hay muchos juegos de palabras en inglés en este canción.)

awwww hide your children and cover your ears
i'm about to light it up like the Trail of Tears
flamebroyled a burger while I'm sippin' a beer
and if you into pop music you got something to fear
I'm taking names and kicking butt butt
with my hand on the trigger and the trigger on the what what?
What what? What you say? Turn it down? Naw, you can kiss my big butt.

drip drop drip d drip drop
my rhymes are watertight to the very last drop
you couldn't stop my flow even if you were a highway cop
drip drop drip d drip drop
my rhymes are watertight to the very last drop
my rhymes are watertight

When I’m takin a shower I devour an hour
Never worry ‘bout time or the powers that be
Cause It’s a personal time for M-E me
Feelin drip drip D R O to the P
I gotta think about the people that I talk about and work around my mind is found to spin around and water helps me calm it down
So if you frown on my rhymes
Or the number of times
My beats repeat I'm sorry but I’m sayin’
You words are heard but they don’t get to my brain
They rollin off my back and then straight down the drain


got my yellow rubber ducky and my big fat glock

When I be cruisin’ ‘round town lookin’ for all da honeys
All the people whinin’ about they water bill moneys
Dey be turnin’ off they hoses and stoppin’ all they showas
But they never seem to think about these astronaut powas
Way up in space everything be airtight
Suckin all dey hoses get dat vacuum seal
So I be using rubbers to get the most out these hoses
Just gotta dig a trench and build a water wheel!

Moses ain't got nothin on my water-splittin powers

i'm bringing audiable disorder
wearing a sombrero across the border
show and tell, hit that bell
shooting out flames like a magic spell
you want some silence but here's a trance
i flow like a speeding ambulance
you heard my crew, now hear me too
so act like water, and go get blue

My flow is coming at you like the Mississippi river

[Paco Del Stinko]

Watertight - Paco del Stinko with Consuela Cohen

I gave my sister a submarine, and sent her off to sea
She was married to a Marine and needed to be free
"Thanks so much" she said to me as I saw her off
Then down she went and disappeared beneath the salty froth

It was watertight - She couldn't get out and nothin' could get in
Driving around in her submarine - Watchin' the fishys swim

A year has passed, since I said avast
But I don't think she's rude, having a blast in her sleek steel tube

I love it here beneath the waves in my special boat
And when I need to look around I pop the periscope
I travel near and I travel far, the seven seas I sail
Once I met an octopus and I'm friendly with a whale
Sometimes when I need a change and need fresh air and land
I go off to find a sunny beach with palm trees and some sand
Then down the hatch and close it tight, I head for sea once more
I'm off to meet a Manta Ray, on a distant shore

I gave my sister a submarine, and sent her off to sea
She was married to a Marine and needed to be free
"Thank you so much" she said to me as I saw her off
Then down she went and disappeared beneath the salty froth

It was watertight - She couldn't get out and nothin' could get in
Driving around in her submarine - Watchin' the fishys swim
Oh, watch them swim
Watching the fishys swim
She is watching them swim

[Rabid Garfunkel]

Watertight
by Rabid Garfunkel

Wearing a box, like a corrugated crown
The token fool, in a one-horse town
Everyone knows him, nobody cares
All alone in the night, away from their stares

Watertight, the alibi
Airtight, the lies
No one will miss him
It's a blessing in disguise

He's laughing at the sight
Factory steam under moonlight
Dancing with the wisps in the breeze
Not dodging the hands that grasp and seize

Watertight, the alibi
Airtight, the lies
No one will miss him
It's a blessing in disguise

Wearing a box, like a corrugated crown
The token fool, in a one-horse town
Everyone knows him, nobody cares
All alone in the ground, away from their stares

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornelius_ ... #Submarine

Verse:
Hey Cornelius
Can you see what you are doing to me?
Your wild experiment
Has caused a little bit of controversy

You’re on to something
But the mechanics can’t propel it yet
You’ve got my attention
There’s no use in playing hard to get

Chorus:
We’re going down down down
I want to see the blue and green
Take me around round round
in your leather submarine

Verse:
Your navigation
has you ready for the weather
no condensation
can get inside or past the leather

The Royal Navy
Isn’t sure if they can use it
But old King James-he
want’s a ride, so you better not quit

Chorus:
We’re going down down down
I want to see the blue and green
Take me around round round
in your leather submarine

Outro:
your underwater machine
maybe I can be queen of
Your leather submarine-

Watertight (y en Espanol por Carlo Bruno)
by Ross Durand
Ukelele (the middle bit and the end bit) and consultation on “cool sounds” by Sierra Durand
Additional crowd vocals on chorus by Sydney Durand and Sierra Durand

We’re all afloat on a musical boat
Gonna ride the wave away to anywhere that it goes
So sail these seas with me just to see what it will be
From the Cape of Good Hope to north of Ecsta - sea
This ain’t the Lusitania, it ain’t the Exxon Valdez
It ain’t the Maine, it ain’t the Hesperus, it ain’t the Minnow at sea
Even if we hit an iceberg, we can dance all night
Cause this ain’t the Titanic - this groove is watertight

Well they say that this is wrong, that it might be a crime
Havin’ this much fun-losin’ track of the time
Until the sun comes up but they don’t know where we’ve been
Besides dancing is not one of the seven deadly sins
And we ain’t Al Capone or the Alcatraz birdman
Ain’t Bonnie and Clyde, we ain’t Charlie Manson
They won’t bring us in even if we’re out all night
Because just like this groove
Our alibi is watertight

And don’t you worry if we seem a little late
This ain’t a trick, and we ain’t leavin’ no bait
Everything is cool, everything is fine
But on the sea of the beat, we’re all on “island time”
_________________________________
Prueba de Agua
En Espanol por Carlo Bruno

Todos estamos navegando en un barco de la música
Vamos a montar la ola donde quiera que nos lleva
Así navegamos conmigo y vamos a averiguar lo que sucede
Desde el Cabo de Buena Esperanza al norte de Ecsta - mar *
Este no es el Lusitania , no es el Exxon Valdez
No es el estado de Maine, que no es el Hesperus , no es El Minnow **
Incluso si nos estrellamos contra un iceberg , todavía podemos bailar toda la noche
Debido a que este no es el Titanic - este ritmo musical es a prueba de agua

La gente dice que esto está mal , la gente dice que podría ser un crimen
Para divertir mucho y perder la noción del tiempo
Sin saber cuando el sol está saliendo y que la gente no sabe dónde estamos
Pero el baile no es uno de los siete pecados capitales
Y no somos de Al Capone , no somos “The Birdman de Alcatraz”
No somos Bonnie y Clyde , no estamos Charles Manson ***
No vamos a ser arrestados , incluso si nos quedamos toda la noche
Porque al igual que esta música
Nuestra coartada es estanca

Y no te preocupes si llegamos tarde a casa
Esto no es un truco y no estamos dejando el cebo
Todo está bien
Pero en este barco de la música que todos estamos en " tiempo de la isla " ****

* Este es un juego de palabras en Inglés en la palabra " éxtasis" y la última parte es la palabra "mar"
** Estos son todos los barcos accidentados o perdidos famosos , estoy seguro de que han oído hablar de algunos de ellos
*** Estos son todos los criminales americanos famosos
**** " Tiempo de la isla " significa que en Hawai y otros lugares de vacaciones isla , la gente parece que no importa qué hora es

[iVeg]

Malaysian Air
Woke up floating on a shard of broken wing
We're alone except a prayer
And a cup of nasi goreng

South Indian Sea
Stars are brighter far from KL City lights
We bail continuously
And hope we make it through the night

Funny how your problems fade
When you're fighting for your life
With each breaking day
We're so happy to still be alive [alive]

Watertight
Sad and frightening when all your hopes and dreams
Rely on some Boeing welder's seams
That they stay watertight
