《Trouble And Strife》歌词

[00:00:01] Trouble And Strife - Everything But The Girl

[00:00:14] Who would be born into a mans's man's man's world

[00:00:19] But what do children care

[00:00:21] For grown ups' despair

[00:00:23] A house can hold both boy and girl

[00:00:28] But every mother's son grows up

[00:00:31] And daughters imitate

[00:00:34] And the burden of careworn world

[00:00:37] Is his to bear

[00:00:39] Hers to wait

[00:00:42] As the open world of a tomboy girl

[00:00:46] Closes on a growing wife

[00:00:49] From a childhood clear

[00:00:51] Through teenage years

[00:00:52] That always seem to be more

[00:00:54] Trouble than strife

[00:00:59] From the hot dark of the night

[00:01:02] To the cold light of day

[00:01:05] From the cradle to wife to grave

[00:01:08] Unless I stand in the way

[00:01:13] As the open world of a tomboy girl

[00:01:17] Closes in with growing strife

[00:01:20] For my own sake I'll comfort take

[00:01:23] To know I'd never make a wife

[00:01:26] As the open world of a tomboy girl

[00:01:30] Closes in with growing strife

[00:01:33] For my own sake I'll comfort take

[00:01:36] In the knowledge that I'd never make a wife

[00:02:06] You hear them talk of women's way with hatred

[00:02:09] And it cuts me like a knife

[00:02:13] Poor men so much to bear

[00:02:15] The children and the trouble and strife

[00:02:20] The open world of a tomboy girl

[00:02:23] Is the best of life

[00:02:27] From a childhood clear

[00:02:28] You end up here

[00:02:30] In trouble and strife

[00:02:36] In trouble and strife

[00:02:43] In trouble and strife

[00:02:50] In trouble and strife
