《Shangri-La》歌词

[00:00:01] Shangri-La - Ray Davies

[00:00:05] Now that you've found your paradise

[00:00:10] This is your kingdom to command

[00:00:15] You can go outside and polish your car

[00:00:20] Or sit by the fire in your Shangri-La

[00:00:28] Here is your reward for working so hard

[00:00:34] Gone are the lavatories in the backyard

[00:00:39] Gone are the days when you dreamed of that car

[00:00:44] You just want to sit in your Shangri-La

[00:00:52] Put on your slippers and sit by the fire

[00:00:56] You've reached your top

[00:00:58] And you just can't get any higher

[00:01:02] You're in your place and you know where you are

[00:01:06] In your Shangri-La

[00:01:12] Sit back in your old rocking chair

[00:01:16] You need not worry you need not care

[00:01:22] You can't go anywhere

[00:01:26] Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:01:44] The little man who gets the train

[00:01:48] Got a mortgage hanging over his head

[00:01:54] But he's too scared to complain

[00:01:58] Cause he's conditioned that way

[00:02:03] Time goes by and he pays off his debts

[00:02:07] Got a TV set and a radio

[00:02:13] For seven shillings a week

[00:02:17] Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:02:34] Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:03:00] And all the houses in the street have got a name

[00:03:04] Cause all the houses in the street they look the same

[00:03:08] Same chimney pots same little cars same window panes

[00:03:12] The neighbors call to tell you things that you should know

[00:03:17] They say their lines they drink their tea and then they go

[00:03:21] They tell your business in another Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:03:37] The gas bills and the water rates and payments on the car

[00:03:41] Too scared to think about how insecure you are

[00:03:45] Life isn't so happy in your little Shangri-La

[00:03:51] Shangri-La la la la la la la la la la la la

[00:03:55] La Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:04:02] Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:04:22] You're in your place and you know where you are

[00:04:26] In your Shangri-La

[00:04:31] Sit back in your old rocking chair

[00:04:35] You need not worry you need not care

[00:04:41] You can't go anywhere

[00:04:45] Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La

[00:05:02] Shangri-La Shangri-La Shangri-La
