I understand you needing
And wanting is no crime
But I can't help feeling
That you and your mother are just wasting your time
Choosing saturdays in summer
I dare you to wear white
Love is just a moment of giving
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
I just don't understand it
What makes our love a sin
How can it make that difference
If you and I are wearing that bloody, bloody ring
If I share my bed with you
Must I also share my life
Love is just a moment of giving
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
You just don't understnd it
This tender trap we're in
Those glossy catalogues of couples
Are cashing in on happiness again and again
So drag me to the altar
And I'll make my sacrifice
Love is just a moment of giving
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
And marriage is when we admit our parents were probably right
Billy Bragg è un cantautore, chitarrista e attivista britannico nato a Barking, Essex, nel 1957. La sua musica combina elementi folk, punk e soul con tematiche politiche e sociali nei testi, assimilabile alla tradizione della canzone di protesta. Bragg ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '80, influenzato da artisti come Woody Guthrie e Bob Dylan. Il suo stile diretto e le sue canzoni incisive hanno conquistato un pubblico ampio e lo hanno consacrato come uno dei più importanti cantautori britannici. Tra i suoi album più noti figurano "Brewing Up a Storm" (1986), "Talking with the Taxman About Poetry" (1989) e "Mermaid Avenue" (1998), realizzato in collaborazione con Wilco e Ralph Stanley, che rivisita le canzoni inedite di Woody Guthrie. Bragg è anche un attivista politico impegnato nella lotta per i diritti dei lavoratori e contro l'ingiustizia sociale. La sua musica ha sempre riflettuto la sua visione del mondo e il suo impegno civile.
