歌词

[00:12.37] Four o'clock in the afternoon
[00:15.19] and I didn't feel like very much.
[00:20.21] I said to myself, "Where are you golden boy,
[00:23.11] where is your famous golden touch?"
[00:27.97] I thought you knew where
[00:29.87] all of the elephants lie down,
[00:35.52] I thought you were the crown prince
[00:38.13] of all the wheels in Ivory Town.
[00:43.54] Just take a look at your body now,
[00:47.19] there's nothing much to save
[00:51.15] and a bitter voice in the mirror cries,
[00:53.81] "Hey, Prince, you need a shave."
[00:58.71] Now if you can manage to get
[01:00.71] your trembling fingers to behave,
[01:04.92] why don't you try unwrapping
[01:08.23] a stainless steel razor blade?
[01:11.48] That's right, it's come to this,
[01:16.14] yes it's come to this,
[01:21.10] and wasn't it a long way down,
[01:29.07] wasn't it a strange way down?
[01:36.48] There's no hot water
[01:39.08] and the cold is running thin.
[01:43.84] Well, what do you expect from
[01:45.39] the kind of places you've been living in?
[01:50.39] Don't drink from that cup,
[01:53.10] it's all caked and cracked along the rim.
[01:57.46] That's not the electric light, my friend,
[02:00.96] that is your vision growing dim.
[02:06.57] Cover up your face with soap, there,
[02:10.08] now you're Santa Claus.
[02:13.83] And you've got a gift for anyone
[02:16.44] who will give you his applause.
[02:21.05] I thought you were a racing man,
[02:23.55] ah, but you couldn't take the pace.
[02:27.55] That's a funeral in the mirror
[02:31.36] and it's stopping at your face.
[02:34.21] That's right, it's come to this,
[02:38.77] yes it's come to this,
[02:42.73] and wasn't it a long way down,
[02:50.64] ah wasn't it a strange way down?
[02:58.80]
[02:59.35] Once there was a path
[03:02.20] and a girl with chestnut hair,
[03:05.56] and you passed the summers
[03:07.86] picking all of the berries that grew there;
[03:13.23] there were times she was a woman,
[03:16.54] oh, there were times she was just a child,
[03:20.54] and you held her in the shadows
[03:24.54] where the raspberries grow wild.
[03:28.45] And you climbed the twilight mountains
[03:32.36] and you sang about the view,
[03:37.16] and everywhere that you wandered
[03:39.24] love seemed to go along with you.
[03:44.29] That's a hard one to remember,
[03:46.95] yes it makes you clench your fist.
[03:50.20] And then the veins stand out like highways,
[03:55.91] all along your wrist.
[03:57.72] And yes it's come to this,
[04:02.43] it's come to this,
[04:06.14] and wasn't it a long way down,
[04:14.61] wasn't it a strange way down?
[04:22.32]
[04:22.67] You can still find a job,
[04:25.02] go out and talk to a friend.
[04:29.38] On the back of every magazine
[04:31.93] there are those coupons you can send.
[04:36.59] Why don't you join the Rosicrucians,
[04:40.34] they will give you back your hope,
[04:44.00] you can find your love with diagrams
[04:47.55] on a plain brown envelope.
[04:51.61] But you've used up all your coupons
[04:55.37] except the one that seems
[04:59.47] to be written on your wrist
[05:02.52] along with several thousand dreams.
[05:07.59] Now Santa Claus comes forward,
[05:10.29] that's a razor in his mit;
[05:14.19] and he puts on his dark glasses
[05:17.85] and he shows you where to hit;
[05:20.75] and then the cameras pan,
[05:25.76] the stand in stunt man,
[05:30.57] dress rehearsal rag,
[05:36.23] it's just the dress rehearsal rag,
[05:43.99] you know this dress rehearsal rag,
[05:52.01] it's just a dress rehearsal rag.
