letra de ballade of a great weariness - myriam gendron
there’s little to have but the things i had
there’s little to bear but the things i bore
there’s nothing to carry and naught to add
and glory to heaven, i paid the score
there’s little to do but i did before
there’s little to learn but the things i know;
and this is the sum of a lasting lore:
scratch a lover, and find a foe
and couldn’t it be i was young and mad
if ever my heart on my sleeve i wore?
there’s many to claw at a heart unclad
and little the wondеr it ripped and tore
therе’s one that’ll join in their push and roar
with stories to jabber, and stones to throw;
he’ll fetch you a lesson that costs you sore:
scratch a lover, and find a foe
so little i’ll offer to you, my lad;
it’s little in loving i set my store
there’s many a maid would be flushed and glad
and better you’ll knock at a kindlier door
i’ll dig at my lettuce, and sweep my floor
forever, forever i’m done with woe
and happen i’ll whistle about my chore
“scratch a lover, and find a foe.”
oh, beggar or prince, no more, no more!
be off and away with your strut and show
the sweeter the apple, the blacker the core:
scratch a lover, and find a foe!
