《The Apple Stretching》歌词

[00:00:00] The Apple Stretching - Grace Jones

[00:00:16] The sun comes swaggering across the harbour

[00:00:20] And kisses the lady waiting in the narrows

[00:00:25] She already plenty shaky stands there

[00:00:29] Blushing clutching the torch of liberty

[00:00:35] Uptown luigi who don't speak english so good

[00:00:39] Is having an accident

[00:00:41] Backing his dumptruck into the fence

[00:00:46] The tin cans go clattering down the lane

[00:00:51] A drowsy bum thinks it's thunder

[00:00:54] And pulls the news over his head to stop the rain

[00:01:01] No it ain't judgement day

[00:01:05] No it ain't armageddon

[00:01:07] It's just the apple stretching and yawning just morning

[00:01:18] New york putting it's feet on the floor

[00:01:26] It's just the apple stretching and yawning just morning

[00:01:37] New york putting it's feet on the floor

[00:02:11] Suburban refugees fleeing the cracked cisterns

[00:02:15] Worm ridden fruit trees stream out grand central

[00:02:19] Please to be breathing bagels and pollution

[00:02:24] In time square new graffiti old revolutions

[00:02:31] A bag lady is cursing the waiter for giving her a free coffee

[00:02:36] Lucky hes a jesus freak moonlighting

[00:02:40] At the acme discount store over in queens

[00:02:44] The burglar alarm starts to scream

[00:02:46] A cop picks out his gun fires one and yells freeze

[00:02:56] No it ain't worl war four

[00:03:00] No it ain't world war four

[00:03:03] It's just the apple stretching and yawning just morning

[00:03:13] New york putting it's feet on the floor

[00:03:21] Just the apple stretching and yawning just morning

[00:03:32] New york putting it's feet on the floor

[00:03:52] Nearby the hudson a hooker makes a u

[00:03:55] To help a blind man to his pew in the park

[00:03:59] Some long ago home training jars the memory

[00:04:05] The bag lady says thank you and curties

[00:04:11] The herd of beaten tourists limp homeward

[00:04:14] Having bitten off more than they could chew

[00:04:16] Moaning them old big city blues

[00:04:20] Miss liberty depicts her qualms and grins

[00:04:25] Another subway starts rattling

[00:04:27] And luigis cans go clattering down the hill

[00:04:33] No it ain't some kind of ill wind

[00:04:37] No it ain't the world coming to an end

[00:04:39] Just the apple stretching and yawning just morning

[00:04:50] New york putting it's feet on the floor

[00:04:58] Just the apple stretching and yawning just morning

[00:05:08] New york putting it's feet on the floor
