《I Knew Prufrock Before He Got Famous》歌词

[00:00:01] Let's begin at the beginning:

[00:00:03] We're lovers and we're losers

[00:00:06] We're heroes and we're pioneers

[00:00:08] And we're beggars and we're choosers

[00:00:10] We're skirting round the edges

[00:00:12] Of the ideal demographic

[00:00:14] We're almost on the guestlist

[00:00:17] But we're always stuck in traffic

[00:00:19] We've watched our close associates

[00:00:21] Up and play their parts;

[00:00:24] They're chatting up the it girls

[00:00:26] And they're tearing up the charts

[00:00:28] While we were paying with coppers

[00:00:30] To get our round in at the bar

[00:00:33] We're the C-Team we're the almost famous

[00:00:36] Old friends of the stars

[00:00:56] Justin is the last

[00:00:58] Of the great romantic poets

[00:01:01] And he's the only one among us

[00:01:03] Who is ever going to make it

[00:01:05] We planned a revolution

[00:01:07] From a cheap Southampton bistro

[00:01:10] I don't remember details

[00:01:12] But there were English boys with banjos

[00:01:15] Jay is our St George and he's standing on a wooden chair

[00:01:18] And he sings songs and he slays dragons and he's losing all his hair

[00:01:23] Adam is the resurrected spirit of Gram Parsons In plaid instead of rhinestone and living in South London

[00:01:33] And no one's really clear about Tommy's job description

[00:01:37] But it's pretty clear he's vital to the whole damn operation

[00:01:42] Dave Danger smiles at strangers Tre's the safest girl I know

[00:01:46] Zo and Harps will skamper up to victory in the city we call home

[00:01:54] We won't change our ways we will proud remain when the glory fades

[00:02:10] I am sick and tired of people

[00:02:12] Who are living on the B-list

[00:02:14] They're waiting to be famous

[00:02:16] And they're wondering why they do this

[00:02:19] And I know I'm not the one who is habitually optimistic

[00:02:23] But I'm the one who's got the microphone here so just remember this:

[00:02:27] Life is about love last minutes and lost evenings

[00:02:32] About fire in our bellies and furtive little feelings

[00:02:37] And the aching amplitudes that set our needles all a-flickering

[00:02:41] And help us with remembering that the only thing that's left to do is live

[00:02:57] After all the loving and the losing

[00:02:59] For the heroes and the pioneers

[00:03:02] The only thing that's left to do

[00:03:05] Is get another round in at the bar
