stone cold crazy

orjinali queen’e ait olan ve nefis bir metallica coverı bulunan şarkı.

now i see his face, i see his smile
such a lonely place, no golden mile
eyes tell of morbid tales of his black heart
his deeds through ages past tell of his part

see his face, see his smile
time to die

angel from below, change my dreams
i want for glory’s hour, for wealth’s esteem
i wish to sell my soul, to be reborn
i wish for earthly riches, don’t want no crown of thorns

see his face, see his smile
time to die

i was born a fool, don’t want to stay that way
devil take my soul, with diamonds you repay
i don’t care for heaven, so don’t you look for me to cry
and i will burn in hell, from the day i die

see his face, see his smile
time to die

queen’in 1974 çıkışlı sheer heart attack adlı enfes albümünün hareketli, vokal bakımından hayli zorlu şarkısı. eşlik etmek zordur gerçekten, tekerleme gibi ilerler sanki.

metallica tarafından çok defa coverlanmıştır. ve hatta james hetfield 1992’deki freddie mercury anma konserinde sahneye çıktığında bu şarkıyı söylemişti.

sözleri de şöyle:

sleeping very soundly on a saturday morning i was dreaming i was al capone
there’s a rumour going round, gotta clear outta town
yes smelling like a dry fish bone
here come the law, gonna break down the door, gonna carry me away once more
never, i never, i never want it any more
gotta get away from this stone cold floor
crazy
stone cold crazy, you know, wooh, ow

rainy afternoon i gotta blow a typhoon and i’m playing on my slide trombone
anymore, anymore, cannot take it anymore

gotta get away from this stone cold floor
crazy
stone cold crazy, you know, ow, hit ’em on

walking down the street, shooting people that i meet
with my rubber tommy water gun
here come the deputy, he’s gonna come and getta me
i gotta get me get up and run
they got the sirens loose
i ran right outta juice
they’re gonna put me in a cell, if i can’t go to heaven
will they let me go to hell
crazy
stone cold crazy, you know
