歌曲 | Like Egypt Was |
歌手 | Michael Penn |
专辑 | Resigned |
作词 : Penn | |
I shook upon a bridge | |
On a fault on the north ridge | |
Where I placed a picture of you on my Etch-A-Sketch | |
I give you now the river | |
And it is too a river though | |
You may not know | |
That it is so | |
And I do not suspect | |
It's the kind that you'd expect | |
In this respect | |
It's concrete and cats | |
Like Egypt was | |
I'm on a three day binge | |
On the lunatic fringe | |
Palm Desert to the Valley of the Antelope | |
Where you wore colognes | |
Made of human pheromones | |
And I only want to stay inside your envelope | |
I'll take you to the river | |
And it is too a river though | |
You may not know | |
That it is so | |
I give you now the river | |
Not the kind that you'd expect | |
In this respect | |
It's concrete and cats | |
Like Egypt was | |
I'm on a three day binge | |
On the lunatic fringe | |
From Riverside all the way to Livermore | |
Where the scent she makes | |
Will now emanate | |
Until everyone in range | |
Collapses to the floor | |
And men will toil | |
In suits of foil | |
As they explain that this girl | |
Was anointed with an oil | |
I give you now the river | |
And it is too a river though | |
You may not know | |
That it is so | |
And I do not suspect | |
It's the kind that you'd expect | |
In this respect | |
It's concrete and cats | |
Like Egypt was | |
Like Egypt was | |
Like Egypt was |

I give you now the river | |
And it is too a river though | |
You may not know | |
That it is so | |
And I do not suspect | |
It' s the kind that you' d expect | |
In this respect | |
It' s concrete and cats | |
