《A Strange Boy》歌词

[00:00:18] A strange boy is weaving

[00:00:22] A course of grace and havoc

[00:00:26] On a yellow skateboard

[00:00:28] Thru midday sidewalk traffic

[00:00:36] Just when I think he's foolish and childish

[00:00:40] And I want him to be manly

[00:00:43] I catch my fool and my child

[00:00:47] Needing love and understanding

[00:00:53] What a strange strange boy

[00:00:56] He still lives with his family

[00:01:02] Even the war and the navy

[00:01:06] couldn't bring him to maturity

[00:01:10] He keeps referring back to school days

[00:01:15] And clinging to his child

[00:01:19] Fidgeting and bullied

[00:01:21] His crazy wisdom holding onto something wild

[00:01:28] He asked me to be patient

[00:01:31] Well I failed

[00:01:32] Grow up I cried

[00:01:36] And as the smoke was clearing he said

[00:01:39] Give me one good reason why

[00:01:45] What a strange strange boy

[00:01:48] He sees the cars as sets of waves

[00:01:54] Sequences of mass and space

[00:01:58] He sees the damage in my face

[00:02:03] We got high on travel

[00:02:07] And we got drunk on alcohol

[00:02:10] And on love the strongest poison and medicine of all

[00:02:20] See how that feeling comes and goes

[00:02:24] Like the pull of moon on tides

[00:02:28] Now I am surf rising

[00:02:31] Now parched ribs of sand at his side

[00:02:38] What a strange strange boy

[00:02:42] I gave him clothes and jewelry

[00:02:46] I gave him my warm body

[00:02:50] I gave him power over me

[00:02:55] A thousand glass eyes were staring

[00:02:59] In a cellar full of antique dolls

[00:03:03] I found an old piano

[00:03:04] And sweet chords rose up in waxed New England halls

[00:03:12] While the boarders were snoring

[00:03:15] Under crisp white sheets of curfew

[00:03:20] We were newly lovers then

[00:03:22] We were fire in the stiff-blue-haired-house-rules
