Unfortunately is the fourth studio album by Shalabi Effect. It was recorded on three consecutive nights at the Montreal Arts Interculturels Institute live.
Randall Stuart "Randy" Newman (born November 28, 1943) is an American singer-songwriter,arranger, composer, and pianist who is known for his mordant (and often satirical) pop songs and for film scores.
Newman often writes lyrics from the perspective of a character far removed from his own experiences, sometimes using the point of view of an unreliable narrator. For example, the 1972 song "Sail Away" is written as a slave trader's sales pitch to attract slaves, while the narrator of "Political Science" is a U.S. nationalist who complains of worldwide ingratitude toward America and proposes a brutally ironic final solution. One of his biggest hits, "Short People" was written from the perspective of "a lunatic" who hates short people. Since the 1980s, Newman has worked mostly as a film composer. His film scores include Ragtime, Awakenings, The Natural, Leatherheads, James and the Giant Peach, Meet the Parents, Cold Turkey, Seabiscuit and The Princess and the Frog. He has scored six Disney-Pixar films: Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Toy Story 2, Monsters, Inc., Cars and most recently Toy Story 3.
The room is dark, it's quiet, peaceful like a wasteland forest, say
A bloodred light shines on the walls of your apartment
As you step into the room
And you can't hear the sound of laughing from your friends
Downstairs, cause then you'd bother all too much
When you're sitting down, you hear a knocking on your door
And Anemone comes in
She tells you once again to reflect over your heart and feelings
Well, here you go again
Losing all support, the devil's wisdom comes and
Turns your heart to stone, so cold...
And you know It doesn't have to be
So unfortunately, It's just that
You don't have to be, So unfortuned Nataly
Anemone is asking questions to the viper in your mind
She puts her arms around you, Death is all too near
Suddenly the picture is changing
Feel like going somewhere else
The need of strangers comfort will push away your fear
Don't you think that someone knows and do you think
That noone ever cares
Once more the room is quiet, The black dress lies
On the floor, Anemone puts on her veil and walks gently
To the door
You lie in silence upon the bed, You see her
Shining light and you know
You will close the door behind
You scream out loud, You feel the pain is fading out
And once again the room is dark
And you know it doesn't have to be
So unfortunately
And you don't have to be, So unfortuned Nataly
Confusions born here every day
Spinning circles upon my brain
No idea which way to go
Roam around without a home
So fucking lost, invalidated
So brought down demasculated
All the joy just disappeared
Another bed full of tears
Hope dissolved, degenerated
The negative has penetrated
No wish for sympathy
It's all a mystery to me
Coming apart at the seams
Wanna be alone for the rest of my years
Don't come inside
Leave it to me to go on unfortunately
Unfortunately
Confusions born here every day
Spinning circles upon my brain
No idea which way to go
Roam around without a home
All my wishes evaporated
Insecurities saturated
So many flaws reappeared
The wrong way I tend to steer
Coming apart at the seams
Wanna be alone for the rest of my years
Don't come inside
Leave it to me to go on unfortunately
