《The Mending of the Gown》歌词

[00:00:00] The Mending of the Gown - Sunset Rubdown

[00:00:42] He made an enemy then he made an enemy of all of you

[00:00:46] It's him not you

[00:00:49] You never heard it from me

[00:00:50] But there's a breech in the hull

[00:00:52] Where the truth and the water's too deep to prove

[00:00:57] He made an enemy then

[00:00:59] He made an enemy of all of you

[00:01:02] It's him not you

[00:01:04] It's a little red sea

[00:01:06] Let the miracle worker go free

[00:01:08] See the paddle go up and the paddle go down

[00:01:11] Let the miracle worker and the paddle go down

[00:01:14] Let the miracle worker and the paddle go down

[00:01:17] And a man falls in the sea

[00:01:20] He was a man of many nations

[00:01:23] Had a hundred souls and a hundred to go

[00:01:26] He was a man of many nations

[00:01:29] Two hearts two hands it's a slippery slope

[00:01:32] He had a fear of being naked

[00:01:34] But you're any other man in another man's clothes

[00:01:38] He was a man of many nations

[00:01:40] With revelations oh revelations

[00:01:44] He wrote a book about the Bible

[00:01:47] He wrote a book about men in the sky

[00:01:50] He wrote a book about the smell of the winter

[00:01:52] And then two A little less simple to decipher

[00:01:55] Saying "I am the water at the foot of the palms

[00:01:58] Or I am sand and wind and a shitty mirage

[00:02:01] But either way I'm a man of many nations "

[00:02:05] Was it the mending of the gown or the running it around

[00:02:11] Was it the mending of the gown or the running it around

[00:02:17] She had a name she had a spirit

[00:02:19] She had a line in the play if you waited to hear it

[00:02:23] But a master of disguises

[00:02:25] Her demise was her design they said

[00:02:28] "Was it the mending of the gown or the running it around "

[00:02:34] She said: "My name and my spirit are both corrupted

[00:02:37] If you hold me close you gotta hold me up

[00:02:40] It was the tender meaning of this slender gown

[00:02:44] That brought me bending to the ground

[00:02:47] Now you'll wear any old thing oh you'll wear any old thing"

[00:02:52] So she wrapped herself in swaddling

[00:02:55] That the fever deviated to a broken wing

[00:02:58] "It"s an act I think she's just pretending"

[00:03:01] "It"s an act I think she's just pretending"

[00:03:04] Burn the virgin flags and I will shake

[00:03:08] As the heat waves in the sand

[00:03:10] This one's for Maggie

[00:03:13] This one's for Sam

[00:03:16] This one's for Maggie

[00:03:19] This one's for Sam

[00:03:22] Or any other random spirit lover

[00:03:26] Busted

[00:03:27] I have lusted after you

[00:03:32] The way bloodsuckers do

[00:03:35] The way bloodsuckers do

[00:03:38] The way bloodsuckers do

[00:03:56] Was it the mending of the gown

[00:03:59] Or the running it around

[00:04:02] Was it the mending of the gown

[00:04:05] Or the running in the round

[00:04:06] In the round

[00:04:07] In the round

[00:04:08] In the round

[00:04:20] It was the tending of this slender gown

[00:04:24] That brought me bending to the ground

[00:04:26] But this ship was built to go down

[00:04:28] See the paddle go up and the paddle go down

[00:04:31] And the paddle go up and the paddle go down

[00:04:34] And the paddle go up and the paddle go down

[00:04:37] And the paddle go up and the paddle go down
