《Ballad Of The Dying Man》歌词

[00:00:00] Ballad Of The Dying Man - Father John Misty

[00:00:26] Naturally the dying man wonders to himself

[00:00:33] Has commentary been more lucid than anybody else

[00:00:39] Had he successively beaten back the rising tide

[00:00:45] Of idiots dilettantes and fools

[00:00:50] On his watch while he was alive

[00:00:57] Lord just a little more time

[00:01:10] Oh in no time at all

[00:01:16] This'll be the distant distant past

[00:01:24] Ooh

[00:01:35] So says the dying man once I'm in the box

[00:01:42] Just think of all the overrated hacks running amok

[00:01:47] All of the pretentious ignorant voices that will go unchecked

[00:01:54] The homophobes hipsters and 1%

[00:01:59] The false feminists he'd managed to detect

[00:02:06] Oh who will critique them once he's left

[00:02:18] Oh in in no time at all

[00:02:25] This'll be the distant distant past

[00:02:33] What he'd give for one more day to rate and analyze

[00:02:41] The world made in his image as of yet

[00:02:45] To realize what a mess to leave behind

[00:03:04] Eventually the dying man takes his final breath

[00:03:11] But first checks his news feed to see what he's 'bout to miss

[00:03:17] And it occurs to him a little late in the game

[00:03:23] We leave as clueless as we came

[00:03:28] For the rented heavens to the shadows in the cave

[00:03:35] We'll all be wrong someday

[00:03:47] Oh

[00:03:54] Oh

[00:04:03] Oh

[00:04:07] Oh

[00:04:10] Oh

[00:04:20] Oh
