“… he resolved never again to kiss earth for any god or man. This decision, however, made a hole in him, a vacancy…” Salman Rushdie in Midnight’s Children.

Me and Mrs Jones

Fiquei pasmada. Não sabia que ainda se cantava assim. Que ainda se faziam canções deste calibre. Se calhar estou enganada e é mais uma questão de “agora, voltou a cantar-se assim”. Seja como for, o cantor, a sua roupa, a voz, a música, a orquestra, a letra da canção, a presença no palco, tudo me parece anacronismo no seu estado puro, a fazer lembrar os idos anos de 50 ou 60. Tempos em que existiam Mrs Joneses e Mrs Robinsons. Vale a pena espreitar. (Link no fim)

Me and Mrs Jones, we got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong to let it go now

We meet ev'ry day at the same cafe
Six-thirty I know she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the jukebox plays our favorite song

Me and Mrs, Mrs Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong to let it go now

We gotta be extra careful
That we don't build our hopes too high
Cause she's got her own obligations and so do I
Me, me and Mrs, Mrs Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs Jones

Well, it's time for us to be leaving
And it hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
And now she'll go her way, I'll go mine
But tomorrow we'll meet at the same place, the same time
Me and Mrs Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs Jones
