Queen - Death on two legs (dedicated to......) (1975)

TESTO ORIGINALE

Aah
You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken all my money - and you want more

Misguided old mule
With your pigheaded rules
With your narrow-minded cronies who are fools
Of the first division

Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You never had a heart of your own

Kill joy, bad guy
Big talking, small fry
You're just an old barrow-boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me
Can you face me

But now you can kiss my ass goodbye

Feel good, are you satisfied ?
Do you feel like suicide (I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night
Do you feel good - feel good

Aah
Talk like a big business tycoon
But you're just a hot-air balloon
So no one gives you a damn
You're just an overgrown school-boy
Let me tan your hide

A dog with disease
You're the king of the 'sleaze'
Put your money where your mouth is Mr. know all
Was the fin on your back part of the deal...(a shark!)

Death on two legs
Tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You've never had a heart of your own
(You never did, right from the start)

Insane, you should be put inside
You're a sewer-rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed
Make yourself null-and-void
Make me feel good
I feel good

[Sheherezade Blanc]

It's rock, get over it. If you can't say what's on your mind, then just listen to pop and be happy forever, even when people rob you blind.

[FlightOfTheDoves]

I kind of think you're over-reacting to this. And contradicting yourself. Not to be mean or anything, but you said lots of people say things that they really don't mean...maybe bittergamer1886 didn't necessarily mean that they were evil...not too sure, but c'mon dude. They knew what they were saying when they published this song. It takes a lot longer to compose a song and get it out there than it does to say something in the heat of the moment, completely out of spite.

[FlightOfTheDoves]

Yeah, dude, I totally get it. It's a really cold thing to put out there. I've only listened to this song once. I see your point and I agree with you almost completely. Don't get why people keep voting you down.

[Bittergamer1886]

Valid point, Lorraine. However, I'd have to disagree with one thing. When suicide is at play, the one whom was suggested is at play here. Thankfully, he brushed it off.

[Bittergamer1886]

Woah woah, buddy. Calm your tits. It's just an opinion, not a dick. Don't take it so hard. I can understand him being pissed, we all have those sides of us that come out that are very unusual of us. But, once you calm down, you don't have that motivation anymore to really get back at someone, and you look back on your actions. And I don't think he regretted it. Whatever, power to him, but just a bit odd considering how care-free Freddie seems to be.

[Bittergamer1886]

I guess evil isn't quite the right word, you are right about that. Just a bit unbecoming of them to make something like that. Kinda surprised me.

[Bittergamer1886]

I didn't say he couldn't. All I implied that it was quite harsh.

[Pinkflyd1972]

Oh god shut the HELL UP!!! Freddie was PISSED!! havne't u said things that are not so good when you are mad.. try getting your money stolen from you, YOU WILL SAY SHIT YOU WILL BE REGRETTTING FOR LIFE! asshole!

[Lorraine Wright]

(Cont.) They were pissed, and like many pissed off people do, they screamed obscenities until they were red in the face and then went about their business. No harm, no foul. There are videos more deserving of this argument than this one.

[Lorraine Wright]

I understand what you're saying, but having dealt with suicide myself this doesn't bother me due to the fact that it's just a line in a song. The people you should be pissed at are the ones all over Youtube telling people to kill themselves and that the World would be great without them. This is why you're getting backlash because of one line. To many it sounds like you're nit-picking. Me, I say you have your opinion, but agree that it isn't something until you make it something.

[Bittergamer1886]

If he wants to use that tool, fine. But he didn't have to use it so harshly, if you will.

[rollrolroll]

Sheffield screwed him in more ways than one - business and personally. It can be looked at as an artist using his tools to rebuke an even bigger tool of the establishment he's "dirtied" himself with, a "cesspool" indeed. Like MJ's DS song against Tom Snedden.
