O MEU ALIBI

Gosto desta canção porque, por trás da melodia arejada e aérea, da guitarrinha acústica que a transporta enganadoramente, da pedal steel a fazer eco de sirene de Verão, está uma pessoa solitária a fazer sinais. E depois, Lloyd é ainda e sempre o meu songwriter de eleição.

I'm freezing cold 'cause I've been out all night
I guess I left without my coat
I just got to walking 'round and 'round your block
very, very rock'n'roll

remember when you said you're my best friend
if that's the best that I've got
and anytime I needed anything
well, I guess I need to cash that cheque

I guess I had another bright idea
why don't I share it with you
I went right up and knocked on trouble's door
they said, mister we've been waiting for you

so could you be my alibi?
could you drive my getaway car?
get me out of jail free
baby, you and me

I'm freezing cold 'cause I've been out all night
I guess I left without my coat
I just got to walking 'round and 'round your block
very, very rock'n'roll

could you be my alibi?
could you drive my getaway car?
get me out of jail free
baby, you and me
baby, you and me?...
