Balanza hacia arriba

Durant un temps, fa una mica de temps, jo tenia aquesta cançó al mòbil.
No en sabia el significat; ni havia escoltada la lletra a poc a poc, paraula per paraula.
No sabia si era una home o una dona qui cantava.
No sabia.


Ara potser tampoc ser gaire més, però entenc una mica.
Deu ser que visc a un país on es parla anglès...


Aint' Got No, I got life 
[Nina Simone] 
I ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes
Ain't got no money, Ain't got no class
Ain't got no skirts, Ain't got no sweater
Ain't got no perfume Ain't got no bed
Ain't got no mind, 



Ain't got no mother Ain't got no culture
Ain't got no friends, aint got no schoolin'
Ain't got no love, Ain't got no name
Ain't got no ticket, Ain't got no token
Ain't got no god 
and what have i got? 
Why am i alive anyway?
Yeah what have i got?
Nobody can take away?...

Got my hair. Got my head
Got my brains, Got my ears
Got my eyes, Got my nose
Got my mouth, I got my smile 



I got my tongue, Got my chin
Got my neck, Got my legs
Got my heart, Got my soul
Got my back, I got my sex 

I got my arms, got my hands, got my fingers,
Got my legs, got my feet, got my toes,
Got my liver, got my blood..

I've got life, 
I've got my freedom
I've got life
I've got life
And I am gonna keep it
I've got life
And nobody's gonna take it away
I've got life!
