Mr. Pitiful

Otis Redding

Transposer:

They call me Mr. Pitiful; baby, that's my name now, They call me Mr. Pitiful; that's how I got my fame. But people just don't understand how a man can feel so blue, They call me Mr. Pitiful, 'cos I lost someone just like you. The call me Mr. Pitiful; this everybody know now, They call me Mr. Pitiful; most every place I go. But nobody seems to understand, now, how can a man sing such a sad song, When he lost everything that he had. How can I explain to you, how somebody can get so very blue? How can I tell you about my past if all things won't end? Mr. Pitiful; that's my name now, They call me Mr. Pitiful; that's how I got my fame. But nobody seems to understand what make a man feel so blue, They call me Mr. Pitiful, 'cos I lost someone just like you. Can I explain to you... Everything is going wrong; I've lost everything I had. I have to sing this sad song to get back to her. And I'm gonna sing this song to you; And I want you, and I want you, and I want you, and I want you. And I wanna tell you everything is going through my mind, And I want to sing, and I want to sing, And I want to sing, and I want to sing this song with you, And I wanna sing this song to everyone. 'Cos I want them to understand what I talkin' about, I want you to understand, what I'm sayin'... (Fade)

Cette chanson parle de la tristesse d'un homme qui se sent incompris et qui a perdu quelqu'un de cher. Il se désigne comme une personne malheureuse, devenu célèbre à cause de sa douleur. Tout en exprimant sa mélancolie, il questionne comment on peut ressentir un tel chagrin, et il cherche à partager son expérience pour que les autres puissent comprendre la profondeur de sa souffrance. Ses paroles témoignent d'un besoin de communication et d'un désir de renouer avec ceux qui l'écoutent. Le contexte suggère un sentiment universel de perte et de désespoir que chacun peut ressentir à un moment donné de sa vie. Ce manque d'empathie de la part des autres renforce son isolement, et il utilise sa musique comme un moyen de retrouver l'amour qu'il a perdu.
