《The Creation of Man (LP Version)》歌词

[00:00:09] The Creation of Man

[00:00:10] Peacocks

[00:00:10] Sink me

[00:00:11] Think ye sir

[00:00:13] How those feathered boys love to flaunt their tails

[00:00:15] Stallions

[00:00:16] Zounds sir

[00:00:16] Hounds sir Stags

[00:00:17] Of the goosie and the gander sir

[00:00:19] Which gender is the grander sir

[00:00:20] To render total candor sir the spendour is the male's

[00:00:29] Be an example to your s*x

[00:00:39] Give your boot a dapper strap

[00:00:43] And it's smarter if your garter has some snap

[00:00:47] Cravats should be flounced about our necks

[00:00:51] Wear a nightcap when you nap

[00:00:54] Be bewitching with some stitching on your cap

[00:00:57] Now drape your cape

[00:00:59] And puff your cuff

[00:01:00] Embroider those lapels

[00:01:02] Be the king of the beasts in pastels

[00:01:07] La but someone has to strike a pose

[00:01:11] And bear the weight of well tailored clothes

[00:01:13] And that is why the Lord created men

[00:01:22] Strut sir

[00:01:28] What sir

[00:01:35] Roosters do

[00:01:37] Give a cock his comb and the hens will pale

[00:01:39] Bucks Bulls

[00:01:40] More sir

[00:01:40] Boars sir Rams

[00:01:41] Of the nanny goat and billy sir

[00:01:43] Whose beard is fully wooly sir

[00:01:44] It's bully for the billy for he's willy nilly male

[00:01:51] Sir be a lion hearted prig

[00:01:55] Fill those pantaloons with light

[00:01:57] I could dangle down a spangle out of sight

[00:02:01] Oh yes Be bold sir

[00:02:02] When it's cold slap on that wig

[00:02:05] Draw your britches in quite tight

[00:02:07] Even more so and your torso will ignite

[00:02:11] Now smock your frock

[00:02:13] Perfume your plume

[00:02:14] I'll let my waistcoat swing

[00:02:16] And the jungle will bow to its king

[00:02:21] La but someone has to strike a pose

[00:02:24] And bear the weight of well tailored clothes

[00:02:27] And that is why the Lord created men

[00:02:30] Gentlemen remember what we're here for

[00:02:31] Why we must be dressed to kill

[00:02:32] If we have to look like Cleopatra

[00:02:33] Then we will

[00:02:33] If you're out to make a splash cheri

[00:02:34] Do know your haberdashery

[00:02:35] Buttons buckles ruffles and lace

[00:02:36] Represent the human race

[00:02:37] La but someone has to strike a pose

[00:02:38] And bear the weight of well tailored clothes

[00:02:39] Each species needs a s*x that's fated

[00:02:40] To be highly decorated

[00:02:40] That is why the Lord created men

[00:02:41] Madame Guillotine：Reprise

[00:02:42] Stick to your purpose

[00:02:43] And don't let the fire burn out

[00:02:44] An eye for an eye

[00:02:45] And to hell with those shadows of doubt

[00:02:45] No one blinds me with tricks and diversion

[00:02:47] No one quickens my heart on the sly

[00:02:49] I am here for one reason

[00:02:49] And all other reasons must die

[00:02:50] The Riddle

[00:02:50] See the moon slink down in the sky darling

[00:02:51] Let your fantasies fly darling

[00:02:52] Life is cold and the game is old

[00:02:53] Just see how virtue repays you

[00:02:53] You turn and someone betrays you

[00:02:54] Betray him first

[00:02:55] And the game's reversed

[00:02:56] For we all are caught in the middle

[00:02:57] Of one long treacherous riddle

[00:02:57] Can I trust you Should you trust me too

[00:02:58] We shamble on through this hell

[00:03:03] Taking on more secrets to sell

[00:03:05] Till there comes a day when we sell our souls away

[00:03:07] Through the mist your lover is beckoning

[00:03:09] Comes that moment of reckoning

[00:03:10] Faces change even smiles grow strange

[00:03:12] And we all have so many faces

[00:03:12] The real self often erases

[00:03:14] Enticing lies flicker through our eyes

[00:03:15] Feel the terror draw ever nearer

[00:03:16] The more you stare in the mirror

[00:03:17] But hold your own

[00:03:17] Face the wind alone

[00:03:17] Reel on love Toughen your scars

[00:03:18] Year by year we're falling like stars

[00:03:19] Till there comes a day when we well our souls away

[00:03:20] Can I run to you Are you true to me

[00:03:21] I'll do unto you as you do to me

[00:03:22] And we slowly learn someone has to burn

[00:03:23] Better you than me

[00:03:23] Oh every Judas once loved a Jesus

[00:03:25] But finally treason will seize us

[00:03:26] And only fools follow golden rules

[00:03:26] We all are caught in the middle

[00:03:27] Of one long treacherous riddle

[00:03:28] Of who trusts who maybe I'll trust you

[00:03:29] But can you trust me

[00:03:30] Wait and see
