The Colony Of Slippermen

Genesis

Transposer:

"The Arrival" …Baba-di-ban… [Verse 1] I wandered lonely as a cloud Till I came upon this dirty street. I’ve never seen a stranger crowd; Slubberdegullions on squeaky feet [Chorus] Con - tinually pacing With nonchalant em-bracing Each orifice dis-gracing And one facing me moves to say “hel-lay”. [Verse 2] Your skin’s all covered in slimy lumps. With lips that slide across each chin. His twisted limbs like rubber stumps Are waved in welcome say “Please join in.” [Chorus] My grip must be flipping Cos his handshake keeps slipping My hopes keep on dipping And his lips keep on smiling all the time. [Bridge] “We like you have tasted love. Don’t be alarmed at what you see You yourself are just the same as what you see in me.” [Chorus 2] Me like you?      C#m7          Dsus2 like that! [Verse 3] “You better watch it son your sentence has only just begun You better run and join your brother John.___” "A Visit To The Doktor" [Verse 4] “You’re in the colony of slippermen. There’s no who? why? what? or when? You get out if you’ve got the gripe To see Doktor Dyper reformed sniper - he’ll whip off your windscreenwiper” John and I are able To face the Doktor and his marble table. Understand Rael that’s the end of your tail. “Don’t delay dock the d***!” I watch his count- down timer tick… [Break] Fmadd9 [Verse 5] He places the number into a tube It’s a yellow plastic shoobe-doobe. It says: “Though your fingers may ti-ckle You’ll be safe in our pickle.” Suddenly black cloud come down from the sky. It’s a supersized black bird that sure can fly… "The Raven" [Break 2] / / / / Cdim / / / / [Verse 6] The raven brings on darkness and night He flies right down gives me one h*** of a fright. He take the tube right out of my hands Cdim Man I’ve got to find out where that black bird lands. [Verse 7] “Look here John I’ve got to run I need you now you going to come?” He says to me: “Now can’t you see Where the raven flies there’s jeopardy? [Chorus 3] We’ve been cured on the couch Now you’re sick with your grouch. I’ll not risk my honey pouch Which my slouch will wear slung very low.” [Chorus 2] He walks away and leaves me once again. Even though I never learn I’d hoped he’d show just some concern. [Break 3] some concern C#m7            Dsus2 ah some concern. [Chorus 3] I’m in the agony of Slipperpain I pray my undercarriage will sustain. The chase is on the pace is hot But I’m running so very hard with everything that I’ve got. He leads me down an underpass Though it narrows he still flies very fast When the tunnel stops Catch sight of the tube just as it drops. [Outro] I’m on top of a bank too steep to climb I see it hit the water just in time to watch it float away / / /

Dans cette chanson, le protagoniste se trouve dans un environnement déconcertant, peuplé de créatures étranges et maladroites. En errant sur une rue sale, il est confronté à des êtres aux apparences repoussantes, avec des mouvements et des comportements déroutants. On lui dit que tous partagent une expérience commune de l'amour, mais il est aussi averti qu'il doit être prudent car son voyage ne fait que commencer. Au fil de son parcours, il se retrouve dans un lieu où il doit faire face à un "Doktor" énigmatique qui semble jouer avec les destins. Alors qu'il cherche à comprendre sa situation, l'apparition d'un mystérieux corbeau ajoute une couche de menace, le poussant à fuir et à se demander où il va réellement atterrir. Cette quête symbolise à la fois la confusion et l'angoisse de l'individu face à l'inconnu et aux épreuves de la vie.
