[00:00.00] 作曲 : Cave
[00:18.53] I live in a town called Millhaven
[00:21.85] And it's small and it's mean and it's cold
[00:25.91] But if you come around just as the sun goes down
[00:30.03] You can watch the whole town turn to gold
[00:33.66] It's around about then that I used to go a-roaming
[00:37.28] Singing La la la la La la la lie
[00:40.41] All God's children they all gotta die
[00:42.66] My name is Loretta but I prefer Lottie
[00:46.28] I'm closing in on my fifteenth year
[00:49.54] And if you think you have seen a pair of eyes more green
[00:55.85] Then you sure didn't see them around here
[00:58.97] My hair is yellow and I'm always a-combing
[01:00.66] La la la la La la la lie
[01:08.54] Mama often told me we all got to die
[01:15.04] You must have heard about The Curse Of Millhaven
[01:19.41] How last Christmas Bill Blake's little boy didn't come home
[01:23.04] They found him next week in One Mile Creek
[01:25.60] His head bashed in and his pockets full of stones
[01:29.29] Well, just imagine all the wailing and moaning
[01:31.23] La la la la La la la lie
[01:33.97]
[01:43.95] Even little Billy Blake's boy, he had to die
[01:46.08] Then Professor O'Rye from Millhaven High
[01:47.20] Found nailed to his door his prize-winning terrier
[01:49.95] Then next day the old fool brought little Biko to school
[01:53.58] And we all had to watch as he buried her
[01:56.89] His eulogy to Biko had all the tears a-flowing
[01:59.14] La la la la La la la lie
[02:05.64] Even God's little creatures, they have to die
[02:10.64] Our little town fell into a state of shock
[02:13.89] A lot of people were saying things that made little sense
[02:17.64] Then the next thing you know the head of Handyman Joe
[02:21.33] Was found in the fountain of the Mayor's residence
[02:23.83] Foul play can really get a small town going
[02:28.83] La la la la La la la lie
[02:31.83] Even God's children all have to die
[02:38.58] Then, in a cruel twist of fate, old Mrs Colgate
[02:42.38] Was stabbed but the job was not complete
[02:45.56] The last thing she said before the cops pronounced her dead
[02:49.32] Was, "My killer is Loretta and she lives across the street!"
[02:52.88] Twenty cops burst through my door without even phoning
[02:56.57] La la la la La la la lie
[03:00.07] The young ones, the old ones, they all gotta die
[03:08.31]
[03:09.94] Yes, it is I, Lottie. The Curse Of Millhaven
[03:12.63] I've struck horror in the heart of this town
[03:17.20] Like my eyes ain't green and my hair ain't yellow
[03:20.44] It's more like the other way around
[03:24.32] I gotta pretty little mouth underneath all the foaming
[03:28.20] La la la la La la la lie
[03:32.38] Sooner or later we all gotta die
[03:37.63] Since I was no bigger than a weavil they've been saying I was evil
[03:41.76] That if "bad" was a boot that I'd fit it
[03:44.88] That I'm a wicked young lady, but I've been trying hard lately
[03:49.07] O fuck it! I'm a monster! I admit it!
[03:52.21] It makes me so mad my blood really starts a-going
[03:56.34] La la la la La la la lie
[04:00.33] Mama always told me that we all gotta die
[04:05.71] Yeah, I drowned the Blakey kid, stabbed Mrs. Colgate, I admit
[04:09.77] Did the handyman with his circular saw in his garden shed
[04:13.34] But I never crucified little Biko, that was two junior high school psychos
[04:16.83] Stinky Bohoon and his friend with the pumpkin-sized head
[04:20.59] I'll sing to the lot, now you got me going
[04:24.32] La la la la La la la lie
[04:29.71] All God's children have all gotta die
[04:38.02] There were all the others, all our sisters and brothers
[04:40.59] You assumed were accidents, best forgotten
[04:43.36] Recall the children who broke through the ice on Lake Tahoo?
[04:47.23] Everyone assumed the "Warning" signs had followed them to the bottom
[04:52.79] Well, they're underneath the house where I do quite a bit of stowing
[04:56.85] La la la la La la la lie
[05:01.17] Even twenty little children, they had to die
[05:06.30] And the fire of '91 that razed the Bella Vista slum
[05:10.76] There was the biggest shit-fight this country's ever seen
[05:13.64] Insurance companies ruined, land lords getting sued
[05:17.28] All cause of wee girl with a can of gasoline
[05:21.15] Those flames really roared when the wind started blowing
[05:25.17] La la la la La la la lie
[05:28.17] Rich man, poor man, all got to die
[05:37.85] Well I confessed to all these crimes and they put me on trial
[05:41.51] I was laughing when they took me away
[05:43.70] Off to the asylum in an old black Mariah
[05:49.01] It ain't home, but you know, it's fucking better than jail
[05:52.77] It ain't such bad old place to have a home in
[05:56.39] La la la la La la la lie
[05:59.77] All God's children they all gotta die
[06:05.78] Now I got shrinks that will not rest with their endless Rorschach tests
[06:09.59] I keep telling them they're out to get me
[06:13.03] They ask me if I feel remorse and I answer, "Why of course!
[06:16.90] There is so much more I could have done if they'd let me!"
[06:19.59] So it's Rorschach and Prozac and everything is groovy
[06:24.15] Singing La la la la La la la lie
[06:28.15] All God's children they all have to die
[06:32.22] La la la la La la la lie
[06:35.22] I'm happy as a lark and everything is fine
[06:39.22] Singing La la la la La la la lie
[06:42.15] Yeah, everything is groovy and everything is fine
[06:45.72] Singing La la la la La la la lie
[06:49.53] All God's children they gotta die
