歌曲 | Back In Judy's Jungle |
歌手 | Brian Eno |
专辑 | Desert Island Selection |
作词 : Eno | |
These are your orders, seems like it's do it or die | |
So please read them closely | |
When you've learnt them be sure that you eat them up | |
They're specially flavoured with burgundy, tizer and rye | |
Twelve sheets of foolscap, don't ask me why. | |
We hit the jungle just as it starts to monsoon | |
Our maps showed no rainfall | |
All the boys were depressed by this circumstance | |
Trust in the weather to bless agricultural man | |
Who gives birth to more farmhands, don't ask me why. | |
Fifteen was chosen because he was dumb | |
Seven because he was blind | |
I got the job because i was so mean | |
While somehow appearing so kind | |
Drifting about through the cauliflower trees | |
With a cauliflower ear for the birds | |
The squadron assembled what senses they had | |
And this is the sound that they heard | |
Back at headquarters khaki decisions are made | |
File under 'futile', that should give you its main point of reference | |
It's all so confusing, what with pythons and then deadly flies | |
But to them it's a picnic, don't ask me why. | |
Thirteen was chosen because of his luck | |
Eleven because of his feet | |
One got signed up for exceptional pluck | |
Another because he was mute | |
Roaming about through the gelatin swamps | |
With a gelatin eye on the stripes | |
The squadron assembled what senses they had | |
And this is the sound that they heard | |
Back in blighty there was you | |
There were milkmen every morning | |
But/fuck these endless shiny trees | |
Never used to be that way. |
