[00:00.00] 作词 : Carpenter
[00:30.57] When we were young we pledged allegiance
[00:33.45]
[00:34.26] Every morning of our lives
[00:36.94]
[00:37.82] The classroom rang with children's voices
[00:41.63] Under teacher's watchful eye
[00:43.95]
[00:45.07] We learned about the world around us
[00:48.38]
[00:48.95] At our desks and at dinnertime
[00:51.63]
[00:52.45] Reminded of the starving children
[00:55.57]
[00:56.13] We cleaned our plates with guilty minds
[00:59.01]
[01:00.26] And the stones in the road shone like diamonds in the dust
[01:06.26]
[01:07.19] And then a voice called to us to make our way back home
[01:13.57]
[01:14.69] When I was ten
[01:16.01] My father held me on his shoulders above the crowd
[01:21.13]
[01:22.00] To see a train draped in mourning
[01:24.82]
[01:25.88] Pass slowly through our town
[01:28.32]
[01:29.38] His widow kneeled with all their children
[01:32.55]
[01:33.18] At the sacred burial ground
[01:35.81]
[01:36.74] And the TV glowed that long hot summer
[01:39.93]
[01:40.61] With all the cities burning down
[01:43.17]
[01:44.62] And the stones in the road
[01:46.56]
[01:47.55] Flew out beneath our bicycle tires
[01:50.61]
[01:51.49] Worlds removed from all those fires
[01:54.99] As we raced each other home
[01:58.32]
[02:27.26] And now we drink our coffee on the run
[02:30.32]
[02:31.14] We climb that ladder rung by rung
[02:34.75] We are the daughters and the sons
[02:37.82]
[02:38.50] And here's the line that's missing
[02:41.31]
[02:44.44] The starving children have been replaced
[02:47.63]
[02:48.19] By souls out on the street
[02:50.38]
[02:51.38] We give a dollar when we pass
[02:54.56]
[02:55.24] And hope our eyes don't meet
[02:57.88]
[02:59.19] We pencil in we cancel out we crave the corner suite
[03:05.06]
[03:06.12] We kiss your ass we make you hold we doctor the receipt
[03:11.87]
[03:14.44] And the stones in the road fly out from beneath our wheels
[03:20.57]
[03:21.28] Another day another deal before we get back home
[03:26.81]
[03:28.58] And the stones in the road leave a mark from whence they came
[03:35.02]
[03:35.89] A thousand points of light or shame baby I don't know
[03:42.40]
[04:01.10] La la la la la la
