作曲 : Bluebottle Kiss | |
This is how it went: a bed and breakfast under fascist skies | |
Providence had slept in it; he could not be revived | |
And a widowed mother sweeps, a loveless daughter weaves | |
There'd been another, a son and brother | |
Long gone, no sign of return | |
But, sure enough, from a distant road | |
Yeah, one lined with gold | |
He'd come armed with a wife and prosperous new life | |
And outside the motel door she bade him leave | |
And said "Why must you go alone? Hey, why don't you stay here with me?" | |
So he waltzed there on it, saw his sister, pale and thin | |
And her lustreless eyes showed no recognition of him | |
She whispered down to her mother | |
"Well hey, here comes another." | |
The mother says "Daughter, I'm getting too old. This guilt is corroding my bones." | |
The daughter says "Well, this will be the last, and all our woes will have passed | |
"We can sit by the sea, mother, just you and me | |
"With this wallet of just one more rich man, sinking deep in the dam | |
"Take him the cup of tea because, anywhere they sleep, they sleep so peacefully." | |
And, when it was over and they got back on track | |
The mother says "Hey, that man, he was so heavy, now I can't move my back." | |
And they opened his wallet to see what treasure lay within | |
The mother turns pale | |
She says "Lord, no. My son, your brother, it was him | |
"And here I couldn't tell because I've been dead for so long | |
"Like some daughter of Israel gorging on her own flesh and blood | |
"And I'll join him and sink deed in the mud." | |
The daughter says "Well hey, what's the use if he was my brother or your son? | |
"Well, he left us for dead, and what of our plans? | |
"I don't care if I never feel the touch or the kiss of a man | |
"I don't care if I never feel the kick of a child within | |
"I'm going to go out with what's left, even if it's just the sun on my skin." |
