Il testo del nuovo singolo di Neil Young, Fork In The Road

Ecco il testo del nuovo singolo di Neil Young, Fork In The Road. Al di là delle scelte musicali, il testo in questione è molto ironico sopratutto nei primi versi poi verso la metà presenta un ritorno alle tematiche di Living With War con un riferimento alla guerra in Iraq e Afganistan. Spettacolare è il verso in cui dice di essere una grande rock star e ringrazia coloro che scaricheranno questa canzone (But I still got you/Thanks/Download this/Sounds like shit). Di seguito trovate il testo:

Driving this country
In a big old rig
Things I've seen
Mean a lot

Friend has a pickup
Drives his kid to school
Then he takes his wife
To beauty school

Now she's doin' nails
Gonna get a job
Got a good teacher

There's a fork in the road ahead
I don't which way I'm gonna turn
There's a fork in the road ahead

About this year
We salute the troops
They're all still there
In a fucking war
It's no good
Whose idea was that?

I've got hope
But you can't eat hope
I'm not done
Not giving up
Not cashing in
Too late

There's a bailout coming but it's not for me
It's for all those creeps watching tickers on TV
There's a bailout coming but it's not for me

I'm a big rock star
My sales have tanked
But I still got you
Thanks

Sounds like shit

Keep on bloggin'
'Til the power goes out
Your battery's dead
Twist and shout

On the radio
Those were the days
Bring 'em back

There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
It's for all those creeps hiding what they do
There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
Bailout coming but it's not for you

Got my flat screen
Got it repo'd now
They picked it up
Left a hole in the wall
Last Saturday
Missed the Raiders game

There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
There's a bailout coming but it's not for you
It's for all those creeps hiding what they do
