[00:01.15]Okkervil River - Singer Songwriter

[00:07.59] 卜超 制作

[00:13.88]Your great-grandfather was a great lawyer
[00:18.39]And his kid made a mint off the war
[00:23.28]Your father shot stills and then directed films
[00:27.63]That your mom did publicity for
[00:31.94]
[00:32.24]I saw your older sis on the year's best book list
[00:37.09]And your brother, he manages bands
[00:41.25]And you're keen to down play,
[00:43.54]but you're quick to betray
[00:45.79]With one welt and that wave of your hand
[00:49.89]
[00:50.10]You come from wealth
[00:52.30]Yeah, you got wealth
[00:54.69]What a bitch, they didn't give you much else
[00:59.12]
[01:02.58]I heard cuts by The Kinks on your speakers
[01:07.10]I saw Poe and Artaud on your shelves
[01:11.63]While The Last Laugh's first scene on your flat panel screen
[01:16.24]Lit Chanel that you've wrapped around yourself
[01:20.70]You've got outsider art by an artist
[01:24.43]you arguably kidnapped to pin on the wall
[01:29.59]Your designers have slyly directed the eye down
[01:34.41]pink lines here and your well lit pawn
[01:38.43]
[01:38.62]You've got taste, you've got taste
[01:42.98]What a waste that that's all that you have
[01:47.17]
[01:50.32]Oh, you wrote your thesis on the gospel of Thomas
[01:55.13]You shot some reversal film in Angkor Wat
[01:59.73]And this book you once read said
[02:02.49]there's less people dead at this point now than
[02:06.48]those who are not
[02:08.72]And this film we once saw was reviled for it's flaws
[02:13.45]But it's flaws were what made us have fun
[02:17.75]And the life some folks have might have made us feel bad
[02:22.28]Why feel bad? Man, it's nothing you've done
[02:26.08]
[02:26.29]It's all in your hand
[02:28.56]It's all in your hand
[02:30.95]Like a gun, like a glove, like a grand
[02:35.40]
[02:56.59]And this thing you once said disappeared from my head
[03:01.11]In the time that it took to be amazed
[03:05.54]And this thing you once did might have dazzled the kids
[03:10.19]But the kids once grown up are gonna walk away
[03:14.37]And your world is gonna change nothing
[03:18.91]And your world is gonna change nothing
[03:23.24]And our world is gonna change nothing
[03:27.62]And our world is gonna change nothing
[03:32.07]And our world is gonna change nothing
[03:44.41]
