Letra y Significado de Pick Up The Bones, Alice Cooper


Teenage Frankenstein opina:

La canción nos pone en los zapatos de un sobreviviente de guerra, el cual recolecta los huesos de su familia en una bolsa, y describiendo que un día, llegaron unos soldados, a quienes describe como demonios con armas, quienes mataron a su familia, quedando solo el como sobreviviente, y no le queda nada mas que recolectar las partes de sus familiares, y al final de la canción, se menciona que aquel sobreviviente aun tiene la esperanza de que todo vuelva a ser como antes, de que el sol vuelva a brillar y que todo este bien, pero en cierta forma el lo ve casi imposible, ya que para el, el sonido de la muerte es lo único que se escucha en aquel lugar.

(Esa es mi interpretación personal de la canción)

Collecting pieces of my family in an old pillow case
this one has a skull but it don't have a face
these look like the arms of father so strong
and the ring on this finger means my grandma is gone
Here's some legs in a cloud where my sister once played
here's some mud made of blood and these teeth are decayed
the ear of my brother, the hand of a friend
and i just can't put them back together again
Pick up the bones and set them on fire
follow the smoke going higher and higher
pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
pray 'em a prayer and turn out the light
There are stains on the floor where kitchen once stood
there are ribs on the fire place mixed with the wood
there are forces in the air, ghosts in the wind
some bullets in the back and some scars on the skin
There were demons with guns who marched through this place
killing everything that breathed, they're an inhuman race
there are holes in the walls, bloody hair on the bricks
and the smell of this hell is making me sick
Pick up the bones and set them on fire
follow the smoke going higher and higher
pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
pray 'em a prayer and turn out the light
Pick up the bones and set them on fire
follow the scope going higher and higher
pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
pray 'em a prayer and turn out the light
Now maybe someday the suns gonna shine
flowers will bloom and all will be fine
but nothing'll grow on this burnt curs'ed ground
'cause the breathe of the death is the only sound
