Perturbazione

La paura atavica del dentista. La morale collodiana del testo. Una citazione improbabile con un campionamento inedito. Un rap. Scomodato addirittura Beck. C’è di tutto in questa canzonetta di cui andiamo fieri.

Le chitarre dell’intro iniziale  sono campionate  nientemeno che da Needle in the Hay del compianto Elliott Smith.

Vediamo chi indovina da quale capolavoro francese è invece campionato il beat successivo.

Vengono presi in esame linguisticamente il discorso diretto e quello indiretto.

Skippin’ the dentist

Why so sad?
What’s the matter today?

I’ve got to see the dentist
a tooth he has to fill
He will certainly use
the terrible drill

Instead I phone my best friend
I ask him ‘What’s up, mate?’
He says ‘I’m going shopping’
I say ‘Well, that sounds great!’

He says ‘Please come with me’
I say ‘I’ll be there straight!’

I soon forget the voice inside
and I tell my doc ‘Goodbye’ (bye bye!)

I hate the dentist
I hate the nurse
I’ve got some money in my purse

All I want is to buy a new shirt
and have a break with a piece of cake

Can I help you? Can I help you, sir?
I’d like a yellow shirt and a pair of purple jeans
What size are you?
How does it fit?
Would you like something to eat?

I take a bite of chocolate cake
but all of a sudden
I feel a tooth ache

I hate the dentist
I hate the nurse
I’ve got some money in my purse

All I want is to buy a new shirt
and have a break with a piece of cake

I hate the dentist
I hate the nurse
I’ve got some money in my purse

All I want is to buy a new shirt
and have a break with a piece of cake
