Translated from the Inglish by Charles Baudelaire  

This week, we've been enjoying the new Brian Eno album The Ship. It ends with a sweet version of 
The Velvet Underground's "I'm Set Free". A double disillusion just might help towards that...

[Verse 1]
I've been set free and I've been bound
To the memories of yesterday's clouds
I've been set free and I've been bound
And now

[Chorus]
I'm set free
I'm set free
I'm set free to find a new illusion

[Verse 2]
I've been blinded but
Now I can see
What in the world has happened to me
The prince of stories who walk right by me
And now

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I've been set free and I've been bound
Let me tell you people
What I found
I saw my head laughing
Rolling on the ground
And now

[Chorus]
I'm set free
I'm set free
I'm set free to find a new illusion
