Satu lagu yang sering saya dengar di minggu-minggu ini adalah dari album Soviet Kitsch yang berjudul "Us", oh itu sungguh menawan, baik dari segi penataan musik yg indah dan lirik yang cerdas. Musik yang dimulai dengan Quartet String ini tidak lama langsung diikuti dengan lirik "They made a statue of us, and put it on a moutain top", dengan maksud bahwa kalian yang sedang dalam percintaan itu menjadi orang yang terpenting dimuka bumi ini. dan kalimat "give us a talking to" mungkin mewakili Orang Tua kita yang mempunyai sejuta pengalaman tentang hal ini, namun dalam hal ini Regina tidak memperdulikannya karena dia sedang tergila-gila dengan kata Cinta. Lalu dia menulis "Rummaging for answers in the pages" adalah suatu pencarian disetiap halaman buku-buku yang tidak pernah menyediakan jawaban atas kehidupan, namun bagi kita yang masih muda harus terus mencari hal baru dan terus bereksperimen dengan ide-ide segar.
Dan bait yang paling saya suka adalah "Our noses have begun to rust", yap itu hanya sebuah ungkapan secara humor yang mengisyaratkan ketidak sempurnaan dan pernyataan bahwa kita dalam menjalani hidup janganlah terlalu serius. it's wonderful that a simple song like this can mean so much to so many different people. bagus.
Us
They made a statue of us
and put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum, take photographs of fun
have fun
they'll name a city after us
and later say it's all our fault
then they'll give us a talking to
then they'll give us a talking to
cause they've got years of experience
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
we wear our scarves just like a noose
but not cause we want eternal sleep
and though our parts are slightly used
new ones are slave labor you can keep
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare and us
The sculptor's momma sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum, take photographs of fun
have fun
they'll name a city after us
and later say it's all our fault
then they'll give us a talking to
then they'll give us a talking to
cause they've got years of experience
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
we wear our scarves just like a noose
but not cause we want eternal sleep
and though our parts are slightly used
new ones are slave labor you can keep
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare and us
The sculptor's momma sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
we're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
we're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
