Fool on the Hill (Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66)

Mi papá tenía una colección bastante grande de LP's. Al principio el compraba en grandes cantidades música de Benny Moré y algunos otros músicos. Este disco en especial me gustó tanto que le llegó el punto en que lo rayé. Esta canción así como aparece en este video tiene exactamente el mismo sonido que yo recuerdo! (de paso esta fue mi introducción a The Beatles también...



cantela!
Day after day alone on the hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still,
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool,
And he never gives an answer,
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning around.

Well on his way his head in a cloud,
The man of a thousand voices talking percetly loud
But nobody ever hears him,
Or the sound he appears to make,
And he never seems to notice,
But the fool on the hill . . .
Nobody seems to like him
They can tell what he wants to do.
And he never shows his feelings,
But the fool on the hill . . .
