《Madame George》歌词

[00:00:00] Madame George - Van Morrison (范·莫里森)

[00:00:31] Down on Cyprus Avenue

[00:00:36] With a child-like vision leaping into view

[00:00:42] The clicking clacking of the high-heeled shoes

[00:00:48] Ford and Fitzroy; Madam George

[00:00:55] Marching with the soldierboy behind

[00:01:01] He's much older now with hat on drinking wine

[00:01:08] And the smell of sweet perfume comes drifting thru

[00:01:14] In the cool night breeze like Shalimar

[00:01:21] And then your self control lets go

[00:01:27] And suddenly you're up against the bathroom door

[00:01:33] The hallway lights are finely getting dim

[00:01:39] You're in the front row touching him

[00:01:46] And outside they're making all the stops

[00:01:52] The kids out in the streets collecting bottle tops

[00:01:58] Going for cigarettes and matches to the shops

[00:02:04] Happy talking Madam George

[00:02:10] And that's when you fall Oh

[00:02:23] Oh that's when you fall

[00:02:38] And you fall into a trance

[00:02:42] Sitting on a sofa playing games of chance

[00:02:48] With your folded arms in history books you glance

[00:02:54] Into the eyes of Madam George

[00:03:02] And you think you've found your bag

[00:03:07] You're getting weaker and your knees begin to sag

[00:03:13] And in the corner playing dominoes in drag

[00:03:19] The one and only Madam George

[00:03:26] And outside the frosty window raps

[00:03:32] She says "Be cool I think that it's the cops"

[00:03:38] Stands up drops everything she gots

[00:03:44] It's not easy now you know

[00:03:51] Now you know you gotta go

[00:03:57] Catch a train from Dublin up to Sandy Row

[00:04:03] In the wind rain & fog & slush & snow

[00:04:10] Keep on going on

[00:04:17] Say good-bye we know you're pretty far out

[00:04:29] And all the little boys comin' round

[00:04:31] They got gold cigarette lighters in their pockets

[00:04:34] Walking away from it all so cool

[00:05:01] That's when you fall
