Red Hot Chili Peppers - Joe [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
This is the place where all
The junkies go
Where time gets fast
But everything gets slow

[Verse 2]
Can I get some Vaseline
Step into a modern scene
Take a chance on that
Which seems to be the making of a dream

[Bridge]
I don't want to do it
Like my daddy did
I don't want to give it
To my baby's kid

[Chorus]
"This is my calling", I said, my darling
Shocking, appalling, all I can do to you
"Hammers are falling", I said, my darling
Shocking, appalling, all I can do to you

[Verse 3]
This is the place where all, the devils plead
Their case to take from you what they need
Can I isolate your gene
Can I kiss your dopamine
In a way I wonder if she's living in a magazine

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
I saw you out there yesterday, what did you want to say
A perfect piece of DNA caught in a flashing ray
I caught you out there in the fray, what did you want to say
A master piece of DNA caught in a flashing ray

[Verse 5]
Can I smell your gasoline
Can I pet your wolverine
On the day my best friend died
I could not get my copper clean

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Verse 6]
I am a misfit
I'm born with all of it
The fucking ultimate
Of love inside the atom split

[Outro]
I'm in a flash ray, a mash of DNA
Another popping Jay, who thinks
He's got something to say
