[00:00.00] 作曲 : Costello
[00:01.00] 作词 : Costello
[00:03.63] She stood spotlit in a plain print dress
[00:07.50]
[00:08.43] Came howling out of the wilderness
[00:11.43]
[00:12.82] There beat a cunning and murderous heart
[00:16.64]
[00:17.33] Beneath that calm exterior
[00:20.48]
[00:21.87] You know my name
[00:22.97]
[00:23.59] You don't know my mind
[00:25.07]
[00:26.32] Don't doubt my eyes
[00:27.94] They betray the past
[00:29.44]
[00:30.75] And I've already forgotten
[00:33.59]
[00:34.78] Much more than you will ever know
[00:38.49]
[00:39.35] Every word that I have spoken is true
[00:42.35]
[00:43.65] Except for one that were broken in two
[00:46.78]
[00:48.07] Trying to make peace after a long night of pretend
[00:51.50]
[00:52.58] Need a pawnbroker or moneylender
[00:55.32]
[00:57.18] Why do you do me down mister
[01:00.48]
[01:01.65] Sing hallelujah sister
[01:08.32]
[01:10.32] Turn up the volume just to turn it down
[01:13.23]
[01:14.82] The trivial secrets buried with profound
[01:17.88]
[01:18.78] It's enough to put a church underground
[01:21.78]
[01:25.52] It's enough to put a church underground
[01:28.79]
[01:33.21] Deflowered young and then ever since
[01:36.83]
[01:38.12] She's tried to wash off his fingerprints
[01:41.21]
[01:42.59] So every charlatan and prince
[01:46.45]
[01:47.00] Was made to feel inferior
[01:49.86]
[01:51.47] She worked for tips in a 10 cent dance
[01:55.16]
[01:56.12] Said moving pictures might pay perchance
[01:59.29]
[02:00.49] 10000 one way tickets to the sparkling coast
[02:05.06]
[02:05.77] From the blank interior
[02:07.87]
[02:09.20] Everybody's either talking in code
[02:11.97]
[02:13.95] Or getting ready to explode
[02:16.77]
[02:17.88] And she was singing with five piece band
[02:20.95]
[02:22.51] Seems that no one really wants this sound
[02:25.34]
[02:27.02] Why do you do me down mister
[02:30.57]
[02:31.39] Sing hallelujah sister
[02:38.45]
[02:40.23] Turn up the volume just to turn it down
[02:43.04]
[02:44.74] The trivial secrets buried with profound
[02:47.75]
[02:48.71] It's enough to put a church underground
[02:51.85]
[02:55.54] It's enough to put a church underground
[02:58.74]
[03:03.74] The shaft of fanlight streaked with rain
[03:07.24]
[03:08.20] Poured through the glass punched through the pain
[03:11.74]
[03:12.72] A holy picture hidden in the midden of that poisoned stitch
[03:18.77]
[03:19.41] Her lonely voice was just a ruin in these riches
[03:25.05]
[03:26.26] She must have been dreaming this all along
[03:29.37]
[03:30.52] Could she be redeeming herself in song
[03:33.78]
[03:35.16] I'm no one's martyred plaster saint
[03:38.56]
[03:39.57] Below the grease beneath the paint
[03:42.85] I'm rolling like barrel
[03:44.45]
[03:45.17] Swinging like a gallows
[03:46.57]
[03:47.35] I'm rising up fast like all hell and all hallows
[03:51.39]
[03:52.43] Why do you do me down mister
[03:55.58]
[03:56.78] Sing hallelujah sister
[04:03.41]
[04:05.63] I'll be damned or purgatory bound
[04:08.55]
[04:09.78] Before those jokers ever understand
[04:12.58]
[04:13.66] It's enough to put a church underground
[04:16.85]
[04:20.31] It's enough to put a church underground
[04:23.29]
[04:27.04] It's enough to put a church underground
