歌曲 | The Other Side Of Summer |
歌手 | Elvis Costello |
专辑 | Extreme Honey: The Very Best Of The Warner Brothers Years |
作词 : MacManus | |
The sun struggles up another beautiful day | |
And I felt glad in my own suspicious way | |
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah | |
Despite the contradiction and confusion | |
Felt tragic without reason | |
There's malice and there's magic in every season | |
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf | |
The other side of summer | |
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf | |
The other side of summer | |
The automatic gates close up between the shanties and the palace | |
The blowtorch amusements, the voodoo chalice | |
The pale pathetic promises that everybody swallows | |
A teenage girl is crying 'cause she don't look like a million dollars | |
So help her if you can | |
'Cause she don't seem to have the attention span | |
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf | |
The other side of summer | |
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf | |
The other side of summer | |
Was it a millionaire who said | |
" | |
imagine no possessions | |
" | |
? | |
A poor little schoolboy who said | |
" | |
we don't need no lessons | |
" | |
? | |
The rabid rebel dogs ransack the shampoo shop | |
The pop princess is downtown shooting up | |
And if that goddess if fit for burning | |
The sun will struggle up the world will still keep turning | |
Madman standing by the side of the road saying | |
"Look at my eyes, look at my eyes, look at my eyes, look at my eyes" | |
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah | |
Now you can't afford to fake all the drugs your parents used to take | |
Because of their mistakes you'd better be wide awake | |
From the foaming breakers of the poisonous surf | |
The other side of summer | |
To the burning forests in the hills of Astroturf | |
The other side of summer | |
The mightiest rose, the absence of perfume | |
The casual killers, the military curfew | |
The cardboard city and the unwanted birthday | |
The other side of summer | |
The dancing was desperate, the music was worse | |
They bury your dreams and dig up the worthless | |
Goodnight, God bless and kiss "goodbye" to the earth | |
The other side of summer | |
The other side of summer | |
The other side of summer | |
The other side of summer | |
The other side of summer | |
The other side of summer | |
The other side, the other side | |
The other side of |
