歌曲 | Stuck Between Stations |
歌手 | The Hold Steady |
专辑 | A Positive Rage |
There are nights when | |
I think Sal | |
Paradise was right. | |
Boys and Girls in | |
America have such a sad time together. | |
Sucking off each other at the demonstrations | |
Making sure their makeup’s straight | |
Crushing one another with colossal expectations. | |
Dependent, undisciplined, and sleeping late. | |
She was a really cool kisser and she wasn’t all that strict of a | |
Christian. | |
She was a damn good dancer but she wasn’t all that great of a girlfriend. | |
She likes the warm feeling but she’s tired of all the dehydration. | |
Most nights are crystal clear | |
But tonight it’s like it’s stuck between stations | |
On the radio. | |
The devil and | |
John Berryman | |
Took a walk together. | |
They ended up on | |
Washington | |
Talking to the river. | |
He said “I’ve surrounded myself with doctors | |
And deep thinkers. | |
But big heads with soft bodies | |
Make for lousy lovers.” | |
There was that night that we thought | |
John Berryman could fly. | |
But he didn’t | |
So he died. | |
She said “ | |
You’re pretty good with words | |
But words won’t save your life.” | |
And they didn’t. | |
So he died. | |
He was drunk and exhausted but he was critically acclaimed and respected. | |
He loved the | |
Golden Gophers but he hated all the drawn out winters. | |
He likes the warm feeling but he’s tired of all the dehydration | |
Most nights were kind of fuzzy | |
But that last night he had total retention. | |
These Twin | |
Cities kisses | |
Sound like clicks and hisses. | |
We all tumbled down and | |
Drowned in the | |
Mississippi | |
River.We drink | |
We dry upThen we crumble to dust |
There are nights when | |
I think Sal | |
Paradise was right. | |
Boys and Girls in | |
