Cantante: Eddie Vedder

When I walk beside her
I am the better man
When I look to leave her
I always stagger back again
Once I built an ivory tower
So I could worship from above
When I climb down to be set free
She took me in again
There’s a big

Gioco: You Have To Burn The Rope
Congratulations
you managed to kill that boss you see
the Grinning Colossus

Gruppo: Bandabardò
Album: Mojito Football Club
C’erano state danze in riva al lago
per brindare al sudore
C’era stato un profumo di menta,
di ghiaccio e di liquore
E poi Miriam, delinquente,
non si serve da bere alla gente
alchimie di sorrisi
dritti al cuore e alla mente
Poi maglioni per terra e partita di pallone
Una sfida essenziale senza regole e religione
Tra noi […]
