All that Jazz: Gentrificación
No sé cuánto tiempo llevaba paseando entre las mesas y peanas, cuando caí en la cuenta de que llevaba un buen rato metiéndome, literalmente, dentro de ellas. Después de observarlas desde todos los ángulos, me hacía tan pequeña como fuese necesario y entraba; intentaba sentir las texturas al apoyarme contra las paredes, husmeaba los rincones, miraba el exterior desde alguna de sus rendijas, me dejaba caer en una esquina o, simplemente, me tumbaba en el suelo, cerraba los ojos y escuchaba.
Del Libro «Yo cuando veo esto, pienso esto» de Capi Corrales.

In a Sentimental Mood
In a sentimental mood
I can see the stars come through my room
While your loving attitude
Is like a flame that lights the gloom
On the wings of every kiss
Drifts a melody so strange and sweet
In this sentimental bliss
You make my paradise complete
Rose petals seem to fall
It’s all I could dream to call you mine
My heart’s a lighter thing
Since you made this night a thing divine
In a sentimental mood
I’m within a world so heavenly
For I never dreamt that you’d be loving sentimental me
Love me or Leave me
You won’t believe me but I love you only
I’d rather be lonely than happy with somebody elseYou might find the night time the right time for kissing
Night-time is my time for just reminiscing
Regretting instead of forgetting with somebody elseThere’ll be no one unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blueSaaay, I want your love, don’t wanna borrow
Have it today to give back tomorrow
Your love is my love
There’s no love for nobody elseSay, love me or leave me and let me be lonely
You won’t believe me but I love you only
I’d rather be lonely than happy with somebody elseYou might find the night-time the right time for kissing
Night-time is my time for just reminiscing
Regretting instead of forgetting with somebody elseThere’ll be no one unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blue
Say I want your love, don’t wanna borrow
Have it today to give back tomorrow
Your love is my love
My love is your love
There’s no love for nobody else
Let’s do it
Birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
In Spain, the best upper sets do it
Lithuanians and Latts do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the Fins
Folks in Siam do it – think of Siamese twins
Some Argentines, without means, do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Romantic sponges, they say, do it
Oysters down in oyster bay do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Cold Cape Cod clams, ‘gainst their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it – Waiter bring me
«shad roe»
In shallow shoals English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love

Other verses I’ve seen in print follow:
In old Japan, all the Japs do it
Up in Lapland little Laps do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
The chimpanzees in the zoos do it
Some courageous kangaroos do it
Let’s do it, let’s
fall in love
I’m sure giraffes on the sly do it
Even eagles as they fly do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall
in love
Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it – garcon de
«shad roe»
The world admits bears in pits do it
Even Pekingeses at the Ritz do it
Let’s do it, let’s
fall in love
The royal set sans regret did it
And they considered it fun
Marie Antoinette did it –
with or without Napoleon
You Don’t Know What Love Is
You don’t feel love like you did before.Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!You ran with the dead today, with the moles from the C.I.A.,
They say more than you ever say.
Headlights in your rear view mirror,
A panther’s eyes as he prays on fear,
Your hunt for love, you electioneer.Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!You ran with the dead today,
Through the cemeteries where ghosts still play,
The more you ran, love got further away.
One look and I saw inside
Every little thing you’d die to hide,
You are the truth, when you lied.Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!You don’t know love like you used to,
You don’t feel love like you did before.
You don’t know love like you used to,
You don’t feel love like you did before.Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
You don’t know love like you used to,
You don’t feel love like you did before.
Oh, you don’t know love like you used to,
You don’t feel love like you did before.
Oh, you don’t know love like you used to,
You don’t feel love like you did before.
Ah, you don’t know love like you used to,
Ah, you don’t feel love like you did before.
You don’t know love like you used to.
Serendipity
That’s what you are,
Unforgettable
Tho’ near or far.Like a song of love that clings to me,
How the thought of you does things to me.
Never before
Has someone been more…Unforgettable
In every way,
And forever more
That’s how you’ll stay.That’s why, darling, it’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am
Unforgettable, too.[interlude]Unforgettable
In every way,
And forever more
That’s how you’ll stay.That’s why, darling, it’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am
Unforgettable, too.
