Jack White - Lazaretto Lyrics






My veins are blue and connected
And every single bone in my brain is electric

But I dig ditches like the best of 'em
Yo trabajo duro
Como en madera y yeso
Como en madera y yeso

And even God herself
Has fewer plans than me
But she never helps me out with my scams for free,
Though she grabs a stick and then she points it at me
When I say nothing, I say everything
Yeah when I say nothing, I say everything

They threw me down in the lazaretto
Born rottin', bored rotten
Makin' models of people I used to know
Out of coffee and cotton

And all my illegitimate kids have begotten
Thrown down to the wolves, made feral for nothin'
Quarantine on the Isle of Man and I'm trying to escape any way that I can, oh
Any way that I can, oh

I have no time left
Time is lost, no time at all, throw it in a garbage can
And I shake God's hand
I jump up and let her know when I can
This is how I'm gonna do it

They wanna burn down the prison
They're lighting fires with the cash of the masses

And like the dough I don't fall down
I'm so Detroit, I make it rise from the ashes

    Jack White is pure musical Genius I adore him.

  17. I.... T....

    Damn, I expected the song that beat Do I Wanna Know for the Grammy to have more views than 22M.

  18. C.... F....

    did that happen? That was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I never want to see it again

  19. I.... ....

    and i thought rap god was fast

  20. K.... M....

    Pure Jack White but I feel a Rage Against the Machine influence in this one, and it's slicker than goose shit

  21. c.... ....

    nope, still the same music as a product game FOOL

  22. Y.... T....

    This drummer is the legit definition of 'cool". LOVE IT!

  25. D.... B....

    Jack and I have a love hate relationship. I love his music but curse my hands for not being able to play his stuff.

    D.... B....

    I can play pretty much all of his stuff, but the solo's are what get me

    D.... B....

    @Ricky Bear I've only been playing for a few days. Well on and off for a few months but the equivalent of a few days.

  26. D.... B....

    This song is awesome to my ears. But shitty on hands that have never touched a guitar. It's making me want to cry. I just want to play this.

  27. S.... M....

    My kind of dude that guitar wow

  28. �.... �....

    Я голубых кровей
    И каждая частичка моего мозга напряжена до предела.
    Но я копаю канавы не хуже других
    Я тружусь изо всех сил,
    Несмотря на все трудности.
    Несмотря на все трудности.

    И даже замыслы самого Бога, уступают моим.
    Но он никогда не участвует в моих аферах бесплатно.
    Хоть и держит в руках трость, которой колотит меня.
    Мое молчание говорит больше, чем слова.
    Мое молчание говорит больше, чем слова.

    Они заперли меня в лазарете
    Сказав, что я родился гнилым.
    Превращая людей, которых я знал,
    В манекены из кофе и хлопка.

    И теперь, все мои внебрачные дети,
    Брошены к волкам, на произвол судьбы.
    А я изолирован на Острове Мэн,
    И пытаюсь сбежать любым способом,
    Любым способом.

    У меня не осталось времени,
    Время совсем утеряно, теперь оно бесполезно.
    Пожимая Богу руку,
    Я подпрыгиваю так высоко, как только могу.
    Вот как я делаю это.

    Они хотят сдуть нас в тюрьмы.
    Они несут свет, используя силу простых людей.
    И как солдат, я буду стоять до конца,
    Ведь я из Детройта, я восстану из пепла.

  29. K.... W....

    What is it like being Jack White? Wow, right?

    Jack White is the son of Ritchie Blackmore and Ian Gillan in the Deep Purple days.... in fact he embodies the entire band, drummer Ian Paice, keyboardist John Lord and bassist Roger Glover. Check out Child in time, smoke on the water and Speed king. He’s one mutha chucking talented Son of a Bistro composer for the blues heavy rocking music lovers. Genius.

  77. A.... ....

    Ending riff is very RATM esque. Actually hurt my neck from banging to that part lol

  78. s.... r....

    There is something about the drumming that I like much but IDK how to describe it. I think the drummer`s performance is superb.
