歌曲 | The Ballad Of The Decomposing Man |
歌手 | Steve Hackett |
专辑 | Spectral Mornings |
作词 : Hackett | |
In a very large factory I belong | |
And I work the night shift all year long | |
Old Freddy on a chainsaw lost his feet | |
Thinking 'bout a blonde he'll never meet | |
Tried to take his life again the other week | |
Keep your chin up, haven't a care 'ave you? | |
Just join the party, allegiance I swear | |
Eee what's the matter with Arthur Royal? | |
I'll go and top up his batteries and check the oil | |
Young Arthur blew a fuse two days ago, | |
Set himself alight, you didn't know | |
Nearly burnt us down the twit just had to go | |
Take your chances, live on hot air (wouldn't you?) | |
Chance of promotion, I'll take that chair | |
Dreaming of golden sands and palm trees | |
I said file these quickly and then staple these | |
Get yourself altered undo the seam, and get back just | |
In time for tea (and don't be late mind) | |
Nobody's perfect least of all me | |
Married the job at age 23 | |
Just keep my nose clean egg chips and beans | |
I'm always full of steam | |
...I could never afford to go to Butlins... | |
...But I did manage to go to Majorca once... | |
...Wish I hadn't bothered... | |
...Past the entrance, by I bored myself... | |
...Who are all these people in my office, anyway?... | |
...Who are they? Where do they come from, do y'know them?... |
