《The Origin of Love》歌词

[00:00:02] The Origin of Love

[00:00:02] (From "Hedwig and the Angry Inch")

[00:00:04] - Musical Mania

[00:00:17] When the earth was still flat

[00:00:20] And the clouds made of fire

[00:00:23] And mountains stretched up to the sky

[00:00:26] Sometimes higher

[00:00:30] Folks roamed the earth

[00:00:32] Like big rolling kegs

[00:00:34] They had two sets of arms

[00:00:37] They had two sets of legs

[00:00:39] They had two faces peering

[00:00:42] Out of one giant head

[00:00:44] So they could watch all around them

[00:00:47] As they talked; while they read

[00:00:49] And they never knew nothing of love

[00:00:54] It was before the origin of love

[00:01:01] The origin of love

[00:01:04] The origin of love

[00:01:06] The origin of love

[00:01:09] And there were three sexes then

[00:01:12] One that looked like two men

[00:01:14] Glued up back to back

[00:01:16] Called the children of the sun

[00:01:19] And similar in shape and girth

[00:01:21] Were the children of the earth

[00:01:24] They looked like two girls

[00:01:26] Rolled up in one

[00:01:29] And the children of the moon

[00:01:31] Looked like a fork shoved on a spoon

[00:01:34] They was part sun part earth

[00:01:36] Part daughter part son

[00:01:43] The origin of love

[00:01:49] Now the gods grew quite scared

[00:01:51] Of our strength and defiance

[00:01:53] And Thor said

[00:01:55] "I'm gonna kill them all

[00:01:56] With my hammer

[00:01:57] Like I killed the giants "

[00:02:00] But the Zeus said "No

[00:02:02] You better let me

[00:02:03] Use my lightning like scissors

[00:02:05] Like I cut the legs off the whales

[00:02:08] And dinosaurs into lizards "

[00:02:10] Then he grabbed up some bolts

[00:02:13] And he let out a laugh

[00:02:15] Said "I'll split them right down the middle

[00:02:17] Gonna cut them right up in half "

[00:02:20] And then storm clouds gathered above

[00:02:24] Into great balls of fire

[00:02:34] And then fire shot down

[00:02:38] From the sky in bolts

[00:02:40] Like shining blades

[00:02:41] Of a knife

[00:02:44] And it ripped

[00:02:45] Right through the flesh

[00:02:47] Of the children of the sun

[00:02:49] And the moon

[00:02:50] And the earth

[00:02:52] And some Indian god

[00:02:54] Sewed the wound up into a hole

[00:02:57] Pulled it round to our belly

[00:02:58] To remind us of the price we pay

[00:03:02] And Osiris and the gods of the Nile

[00:03:06] Gathered up a big storm

[00:03:08] To blow a hurricane

[00:03:10] To scatter us away

[00:03:14] In a flood of wind and rain

[00:03:16] And a sea of tidal waves

[00:03:18] To wash us all away

[00:03:21] And if we don't behave

[00:03:23] They'll cut us down again

[00:03:25] And we'll be hopping around on one foot

[00:03:28] And looking through one eye

[00:03:52] Last time I saw you

[00:03:54] We had just split in two

[00:03:56] You was looking at me

[00:03:59] I was looking at you

[00:04:01] You had a way so familiar

[00:04:03] But I could not recognize

[00:04:05] Cause you had blood on your face;

[00:04:08] I had blood in my eyes

[00:04:10] But I could swear by your expression

[00:04:11] That the pain down in your soul

[00:04:15] Was the same as the one down in mine

[00:04:19] That's the pain

[00:04:22] Cuts a straight line

[00:04:24] Down through the heart

[00:04:26] We called it love

[00:04:28] So we wrapped our arms around each other

[00:04:31] Trying to shove ourselves back together

[00:04:33] We was making love

[00:04:35] Making love

[00:04:38] It was a cold dark evening

[00:04:40] Such a long time ago

[00:04:42] When by the mighty hand of Jove

[00:04:47] It was the sad story

[00:04:49] How we became

[00:04:50] Lonely two-legged creatures

[00:04:52] It's the story of

[00:04:54] The origin of love
