《Trouble Every Day》歌词

[00:00:00] Trouble Every Day - Frank Zappa

[00:00:12] Well I'm about to get UPSET

[00:00:14] From watchin' my TV

[00:00:16] Been checkin' out the news

[00:00:18] Until my eyeballs fail to see

[00:00:20] I mean they say that every day

[00:00:22] Is just another rotten mess

[00:00:24] And when it's gonna change my friends

[00:00:26] Is anybody's guess

[00:00:28] So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'

[00:00:30] Hopin' for the best

[00:00:32] Even think I'll go to prayin'

[00:00:34] Every time I hear 'em sayin'

[00:00:36] That there's no way to delay

[00:00:37] That trouble comin' every day

[00:00:40] No way to delay

[00:00:41] That trouble comin' every day

[00:00:52] Wednesday I watched the riot

[00:00:53] I seen the cops out on the street

[00:00:56] Watched 'em throwin' rocks and stuff

[00:00:58] And chokin' in the heat

[00:01:00] Listened to reports

[00:01:01] About the whisky passin' 'round

[00:01:03] Seen the smoke & fire

[00:01:05] And the market burnin' down

[00:01:08] Watched while everybody

[00:01:09] On his street would take a turn

[00:01:12] To stomp and smash and bash and crash

[00:01:14] And slash and bust and burn

[00:01:15] And I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'

[00:01:18] Hopin' for the best

[00:01:20] Even think I'll go to prayin'

[00:01:22] Every time I hear 'em sayin'

[00:01:23] That there's no way to delay

[00:01:25] That trouble comin' every day

[00:01:28] No way to delay

[00:01:29] That trouble comin' every day

[00:01:42] Well you can cool it

[00:01:44] You can heat it

[00:01:45] 'Cause baby I don't need it

[00:01:47] Take your TV tube and eat it

[00:01:49] 'N all that phony stuff on sports

[00:01:51] 'N all THOSE unconfirmed reports

[00:01:53] You know I watched that rotten box

[00:01:55] Until my head began to hurt

[00:01:57] From checkin' out the way

[00:01:59] The newsmen say they get the dirt

[00:02:01] Before the guys on channel so-and-so

[00:02:03] And further they assert

[00:02:05] That any show they'll interrupt

[00:02:07] To bring you news if it comes up

[00:02:09] They say that if the place blows up

[00:02:11] They'll be the first to tell

[00:02:13] Because the boys they got downtown

[00:02:15] Are workin' hard and doin' swell

[00:02:17] And if anybody gets the news

[00:02:19] Before it hits the street

[00:02:21] They say that no one blabs it faster

[00:02:23] Their coverage can't be beat

[00:02:25] And if another woman driver

[00:02:27] Gets machine-gunned from her seat

[00:02:29] They'll send some joker with a brownie

[00:02:31] And you'll see it all complete

[00:02:33] So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'

[00:02:35] Hopin' for the best

[00:02:37] Even think I'll go to prayin'

[00:02:39] Every time I hear 'em sayin'

[00:02:41] That there's no way to delay

[00:02:43] That trouble comin' every day

[00:02:45] No way to delay

[00:02:46] That trouble comin' every day

[00:02:52] Hey you know something people

[00:02:56] I'm not black

[00:02:56] But there's a whole lots a times

[00:02:58] I wish I could say I'm not white

[00:03:05] Well I seen the fires burnin'

[00:03:06] And the local people turnin'

[00:03:08] On the merchants and the shops

[00:03:10] Who used to sell their brooms and mops

[00:03:12] And every other household item

[00:03:14] Watched the mob just turn and bite 'em

[00:03:17] And they say it served 'em right

[00:03:18] Because a few of them are white

[00:03:20] And it's the same across the nation

[00:03:22] Black & white discrimination

[00:03:24] They're yellin' "You can't understand me "

[00:03:26] And all the other crap they hand me

[00:03:28] In the papers and TV

[00:03:30] 'N all that mass stupidity

[00:03:32] That seems to grow more every day

[00:03:34] Each time you hear some nitwit say

[00:03:36] He wants to go and do you in

[00:03:38] Because the color of your skin

[00:03:40] Just don't appeal to him

[00:03:42] (No matter if it's black or white)

[00:03:44] Because he's out for blood tonight

[00:04:20] You know we gotta sit around at home

[00:04:22] And watch this thing begin

[00:04:24] But I bet there won't be many left

[00:04:26] To see it really end

[00:04:28] 'Cause the fire in the street

[00:04:29] Ain't like the fire in my heart

[00:04:32] And in the eyes of all these people

[00:04:33] Don't you know that this could start

[00:04:35] On any street in any town

[00:04:37] In any state if any clown

[00:04:39] Decides that now's the time to fight

[00:04:41] For some ideal he thinks is right

[00:04:43] And if a million more agree

[00:04:45] There ain't no great society

[00:04:47] As it applies to you and me

[00:04:49] Our country isn't free

[00:04:51] And the law refuses to see

[00:04:53] If all that you can ever be

[00:04:55] Is just a lousy janitor

[00:04:57] Unless your uncle owns a store

[00:04:59] You know that five in every four

[00:05:01] WON'T amount TO nothin' more

[00:05:02] THAN watch the rats go across the floor
