Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

I Can't Turn It Off

 

I Can't Turn It Off


Basement babies strangling saxophones
They got twisted motives, they got eyes of stone
But it's a terminal condition that is tattered through and through
It's not that they don't need you
They're too mixed up to choose

Broken noses hung up on the wall
Back-slapping drinkers cheer the championship brawl
And they're so punch drunk they don't understand the word defeat
They can take you out and shoot you
They can't confiscate that beat

Steam engineer breaks down in the newsreel
He's seen the future of the diesel wheel
Listen to the hammers falling in the breaker's yard
When you're used to the glamour it comes at you twice as hard

Sometimes I think that I have had enough
Sometimes I scare myself I get enough
But you know that I can't turn it off

Young girl rehearses all her blackmail faces
She's looking for a love that lasts
She'd never break the heart of any aces
And she's learning pretty fast

I've seen those clowns running all over town
Trying to satisfy all of their carnival desires
You start out looking for your own melody
They end up in the closing time choirs

All you lucky people crying in your beer
When it comes down to silence not even tears
You're in real trouble between the two
When it comes down to me
When it comes down to you

But it must be something you're allowed to keep
In between the longest pantomimes
'Cos it's very easy to let love fall asleep
When you are worrying about hard times

Sometimes I think that I have had enough
Sometimes I scare myself I get enough
But you know that I can't turn it off
But you know that I can't turn it off

done

Did you add all the unfamiliar words from this song?
