《The Age of Rhythm》歌词

[00:00:01] The Age Of Rhythm - Al Stewart

[00:00:24] Today I feel like Dorothy Parker

[00:00:27] Today I've got the critical eye

[00:00:30] I paint my world just a little bit darker

[00:00:33] Don't even have to try

[00:00:39] Everyone seems a little bit desperate

[00:00:42] Oh so witty but over the edge

[00:00:44] I don't know why they try to impress you

[00:00:48] With one foot on the window ledge

[00:00:54] That's just the way they play it

[00:00:56] That's just the way they are

[00:01:00] Think up a line and say it

[00:01:02] I'll see you all later down at the bar

[00:01:06] Don't try to understand it

[00:01:08] It won't get you very far

[00:01:11] Even the Great Pretender

[00:01:14] Is really as naked a Hedy Lamarr

[00:01:17] Today I feel like Dorothy Parker

[00:01:19] Today I'm up here walking the floor

[00:01:23] The light inside my head getting darker

[00:01:26] Going to leave this town for sure

[00:01:55] One block down and another block over

[00:01:58] There's a place that will make you a drink

[00:02:01] The night is hot I believe that I'll go there

[00:02:04] A password will get you in

[00:02:09] Play a song by Hoagy Carmichael

[00:02:12] Play that horn like Beiderbecke too

[00:02:15] A glass or two of something you like'll

[00:02:18] Separate you from these blues

[00:02:24] Life is a constant party

[00:02:26] Swung to a shot of jazz

[00:02:30] Even the broken-hearted

[00:02:32] Can steal a feel of the razamatazz

[00:02:36] This is the age of rhythm

[00:02:38] These are the dancing years

[00:02:42] Jump through the mirror with them

[00:02:44] New York has no time for your tears

[00:02:47] Today I feel like Dorothy Parker

[00:02:50] Today I've got the critical eye

[00:02:53] I paint my world just a little bit darker

[00:02:56] Don't even have to try
