Suzanne Véga

Pas commun d'évoquer l'enfance maltraitée dans une chanson. C'est pourtant ce que fait Suzanne Véga avec Luka.  J'aurai aussi voulu mettre "Tom's dinner" qui était sur le même album solitude standing de 1987 mais je ne l'ai pas trouvé. Vous pouvez tout de même en voir un clip sur son site ( en bas à droite )

My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble. some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
I think it's because I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud
They only hit until you cry
And after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore

Yes I think I'm okay
I walked into the door again
Well, if you ask that's what I'll say
And it's not your business anyway
I guess I'd like to be alone
With nothing broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
