DTBF: Turn The Page - Metallica

It's time to get excited again. Today with a song that was "only" covered by Metallica and actually comes from Bob Seger and is not really liked by many fans, but I think the song is awesome and not only because of the lyrics, which are available in German translation below, to then follow in the original English:

Metallica - Turn The Page

On a long and lonely highway east of Omaha
Can you listen to the monotonous moaning song of the engine
And you think about the woman or the girl you met last night

But your thoughts will soon wander like they always do
When you drive sixteen hours and there is nothing else to do
And you don't really feel like driving, you just wish the trip was over

Here I am
Again on the street
There I am
Up on the stage
Here i go
Play Star again
There i go
Turn the page

When you walk into this restaurant, drained from the street
And you feel the eyes on you as you shake off the cold
You pretend you don't mind, but you really want to explode

Most of the time you can't hear them talk, sometimes you can
All the same old cliches, "A woman or a man?"
And you always seem like an outsider, you don't dare to challenge them

Here I am
Again on the street
There I am
Up on the stage
Here i go
Play Star again
There i go
Turn the page

Out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away
You try to get every ounce of energy out of yourself
When the sweat pours out of your body like the music you play

Later that evening when you're awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers reverberating in your head
Do you smoke the last cigarette of the day, remember what she said (what she said)

Here I am
Again on the street
There I am
Up on the stage
Here i go
Play Star again
There i go
Turn the page
There i go
Turn the page
There i go
There i go
There i go
Here i go
There i go
There i go
I'm gone

And now the lyrics are available in English as promised, after the jump...

On a long and lonesome highway,
East of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin›
Out his one long song
You can think about the woman
Or the girl you knew the night before

But your thoughts will soon be wandering
The way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
And there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like writing',
You just wish the trip was through

“Here I am, on the road again
“There I am, up on the stage
» Here I go, playin' star again
“There I go, turn the page

So you walk into this restaurant,
Failure out of the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
As you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
But you just want to explode

The most times you can't hear 'em talk,
Other times you can
All the same old cliches,
«Is it a woman? Is it man?»
And you always seem outnumbered,
You don't dare make a stand

“Here I am, on the road again
“There I am, up on the stage
» Here I go, playin' star again
“There I go, turn the page

out there in the spotlight,
You're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy
You try to give away
As the sweat pours out of your body
Like the music that you play

Later in the evening
As you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers
Ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,
Rememberin' what she said

(what she said ...)
“Here I am, on the road again
“There I am, up on the stage
» Here I go, playin' star again
“There I go, turn the page
“Here I am, on the road again
“There I am, up on the stage
» Here I go, playin' star again
“There I go
“There I go
»There I go ...
