carolina drama

• jack white'ın müthiş bir oyunculuk sergilediği, grubun isminin kelime anlamını fazlasıyla karşılayan dylan-esque^* the raconteurs şarkısı.
  sonunda titriyorum. bu şarkı söylemek değil..
  
  buyrun sözleri:
  
  i'm not sure if there's a point to this story
  but i'm going to tell it again
  so many other people try to tell the tale
  not one of them knows the end
  
  it was a junk-house in south carolina
  held a boy the age of ten
  along with his older brother billy
  and a mother and her boyfriend
  who was a triple loser with some blue tattoos
  that were given to him when he was young
  and a drunk temper that was easy to lose
  and thank god he didn't own a gun
  
  well, billy woke up in the back of his truck
  took a minute to open his eyes
  he took a peep into the back of the house
  and found himself a big surprise
  he didn't see his brother but there was his mother
  with her red-headed head in her hands
  while the boyfriend had his gloves wrapped around an old priest
  trying to choke the man
  
  ah ah ahhh...
  
  billy looked up from the window to the truck
  threw up, and had to struggle to stand
  he saw that red-necked bastard with a hammer
  turn the priest into a shell of a man
  the priest was putting up the fight of his life
  but he was old and he was bound to lose
  the boyfriend hit as hard as he could
  and knocked the priest right down to his shoes
  
  well, now billy knew but never actually met
  the preacher lying there in the room
  he heard himself say, "that must be my daddy"
  then he knew what he was gonna do
  billy got up enough courage, took it up
  and grabbed the first blunt thing he could find
  it was a cold, glass bottle of milk
  that got delivered every morning at nine
  
  ah ah ahhh...
  
  billy broke in and saw the blood on the floor, and
  he turned around and put the lock on the door
  he looked dead into the boyfriend's eye
  his mother was a ghost, too upset to cry, then
  he took a step toward the man on the ground
  from his mouth trickled out a little audible sound
  he heard the boyfriend shout, "get out!"
  and billy said, "not till i know what this is all about"
  "well, this preacher here was attacking your mama"
  but billy knew just who was starting the drama
  so billy took dead aim at his face
  and smashed the bottle on the man who left his dad in disgrace, and
  the white milk dripped down with the blood, and the
  boyfriend fell down dead for good
  right next to the preacher who was gasping for air
  and billy shouted, "daddy, why'd you have to come back here?"
  his mama reached behind the sugar and honey, and
  pulled out an envelope filled with money
  "your daddy gave us this," she collapsed in tears
  "he's been paying all the bills for years"
  "mama, let's put this body underneath the trees
  and put daddy in the truck and head to tennessee"
  just then, his little brother came in
  holding the milk man's hat and a bottle of gin singing,
  
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la, la la la...
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la, la la la...
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  la la la la, la la la la, yeah
  
  well now you heard another side to the story
  but you wanna know how it ends?
  if you must know, the truth about the tale
  go and ask the milkman.
• kesin ötesi çok özel bir şarkı
• (bkz: şaheser)

• kardeşlerimiz link vermeyi unutmuş; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzgaovwbziu
  
  bu da bonus; akustik versiyonu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cukcchh7sbo
• bu enfes şarkının hikayesi hakkında en güzel yorum yapılmış, "cohen kardeşler filmi gibi" denilerek. sözleriyle birleştirdiğinizde üzer gerçekten. bunun yanında şarkının müthiş bi kompozisyon olduğunu da düşünüyorum.
  
  hikaye 3.kişinin gözünden anlatılmış. başkahramanımız billy, south carolina'da 10 yaşındaki kardeşi, annesi ve annesinin müptezel sevgilisiyle takılmaktadır. bir gün kamyonunun arkasında uyanır ve bi manzarayla karşılaşır. annesinin müptezel sevgilisi biriyle kavga etmektedir. daha önce tanımadığı bi adam. kavganın gidişatından o adamın babası olduğunu anlar. yerde bulduğu süt şişesini müptezel redneck'in kafasında parçalar. tam bu manzaranın ortasına kardeşi "la la la la la la la la yeah" diye şarkı söyleyerek gelir, bu şarkının sesi de şarkının son kısmında giderek yükselerek gelir, sanki çocuk giderek yaklaşıyomuş gibi. çocuk gelince de şarkı biter zaten, hikayenin sonunu öğrenmek isteyenler de gidip sütçüye sorabilir.
  
  jack white.
• mükemmel ötesi bir şarkı. şarkıda anlatılanlar başından sonuna kadar kısa bir redneck filmi gibi gözünüzde canlanıyor. dinleyin dinlettirin.
