Reservoir Dogs – Stealers Wheel – Stuck in the Middle with You

‘Reservoir Dogs’ fue una película que revolucionó la industria cinematográfica de la década de los años 90 y supuso una aire fresco dentro del aburrido cine que se estaba desarrollando en Hollywood. Una película diferente que incluía una escena en la que Michael Madsen -Mr. Blonde- torturaba a un policía atado a una silla. Una tortura que se desarrollaba con una canción de fondo, el viejo éxito de Stealers Wheel, “Stuck in the Middle With You”. Un tremendo contraste entre la violenta escena y la alegre y melódica tonadilla que suena de fondo, que permite al bueno de Michael Madsen echarse unos bailes, tararear el estribillo mientras destripa a un madero con una navaja de afeitar.

Well I don’t know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain’t right,
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.

Yes I’m stuck in the middle with you,
And I’m wondering what it is I should do,
It’s so hard to keep this smile from my face,
Losing control, yeah, I’m all over the place,
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Well you started out with nothing,
And you’re proud that you’re a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please…. Please…..

Trying to make some sense of it all,
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
‘Cause I don’t think that I can take anymore
Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

Well you started out with nothing,
And you’re proud that you’re a self made man,
And your friends, they all come crawlin,
Slap you on the back and say,
Please…. Please…..
