little acorns   

adana çık aradan

  1. the white stripes'ın elephant albümünden çok güzel bir parça... şarkı,janet adlı bir kadının hikayesiyle başlar ve hikayeye eşlik eden pianonun anlatıcının sözünü bitirdiği yerde yerini gitara bırakmasıyla müthiş bi hal alır...

    when problems overwhelm us and sadness smothers us where do we find the will and the courage to continue? well the answer may come in the caring voice of a friend, a chance encounter with a book, or from a personal faith. for janet help came from her faith, but it also from a squirrel. shortly after her divorce, janet lost her father, then she lost her job. she had mounting money problems. but janet not only survived she worked her way out of despondency and now she says, life is good again. how could this happen? she told me that late one ? day when she was at her lowest she watched a squirrel storing up nuts for the winter, one at a time he would take them to the nest. and she thought, if that squirrel
    can take care of himself with the harsh winter coming along, then so can i. once i ripped my problems into small pieces i was able to carry them, just like those acorns, one at a time.

    take all your problems
    and rip 'em apart
    oh oh oh
    carry them off
    ın a shopping cart
    oh oh oh

    and another thing you
    should've known from the start
    the problems in hand
    are lighter than at heart

    be like the squirrel, girl
    be like the squirrel
    give it a whirl, girl
    be like the squirrel

    and another thing
    you have to know in this world
    cut up your hair
    straighten your curls
    well you problems
    hide in your curls

  2. "another thing you
    should've known from the start
    the problems in hand
    are lighter than at heart" gibi çok da güzel bir tavsiye içeren parçadır...
