《Reconstruction Site》歌词

[00:00:00] Reconstruction Site - The Weakerthans

[00:00:21] I'm lost I'm afraid

[00:00:24] A frayed rope tying down a leaky boat

[00:00:26] To the roof of a car on the road in the dark

[00:00:29] And it's snowing

[00:00:31] If I'm more then it means less

[00:00:35] Last call for happiness

[00:00:37] I'm your dress near the back of your knees

[00:00:39] And your slip is showing

[00:00:42] I'm afloat

[00:00:43] Afloat in a summer parade

[00:00:46] Up the street in the town that you were born in

[00:00:53] With a girl at the top wearing tulle

[00:00:57] And a Miss Somewhere sash

[00:01:00] Waving like the queen

[00:01:04] Beauty's just another word

[00:01:07] I'm never certain how to spell

[00:01:09] Go tell the nurse to turn the TV back on

[00:01:15] And throw away my misery

[00:01:18] It never meant that much to me

[00:01:20] It never sent a 'Get Well' card

[00:01:35] I broke like a bad joke somebody's uncle told

[00:01:40] At a wedding reception in 1972

[00:01:46] Where a little boy under a table with cake in his hair

[00:01:51] Stared at the grown-up feet as they danced and swayed

[00:01:56] And his father laughed and talked on the long ride home

[00:02:02] And his mother laughed and talked on the long ride home

[00:02:07] And he thought about how everyone dies someday

[00:02:13] And when tomorrow gets here where will yesterday be

[00:02:18] And fell asleep in his brand-new winter coat

[00:02:24] Buy me a shiny new machine that runs on lies and gasoline

[00:02:30] And all those batteries we stole from smoke-alarms

[00:02:35] And disassembles my despair

[00:02:38] It never took me anywhere

[00:02:40] It never once bought me a drink
