《Tenement Symphony》歌词

[00:00:00] Tenement Symphony - Edmund Hockridge

[00:00:01] Written by：Sid Kuller

[00:00:12] Aaah aah

[00:00:21] Schubert wrote a symphony

[00:00:23] Too bad he didn't finish it

[00:00:26] Gershwin took a chord in G and

[00:00:29] Proceeded to diminish it

[00:00:32] I sought a variation

[00:00:34] On a theme that I thought pretty

[00:00:37] And I found my inspiration

[00:00:42] On the east side of the city

[00:00:55] The Cohens and the Kellys

[00:00:59] The Campbells and Vermicellis

[00:01:03] All form a part of

[00:01:06] My Tenement Symphony

[00:01:12] The Cohen's pianola

[00:01:16] The Kellys and their victrola

[00:01:19] All warm the heart of my Tenement Symphony

[00:01:28] The Campbells come tumblin' down the stairs

[00:01:30] Hoodlie ah hoodlie ah hoodlie ah

[00:01:35] Oh Marie oh Marie

[00:01:39] You'll be late for your date with Izzy

[00:01:45] And from this confusion

[00:01:50] I dreamed of a grand illusion

[00:01:55] It's my Tenement Symphony in four flats

[00:02:11] The kid on the first floor practicing the minuet

[00:02:16] The kid on the second floor yelling

[00:02:19] For the dinner that he didn't get

[00:02:25] The guy on the third floor awakened from his slumber

[00:02:28] By the guy on the fourth floor

[00:02:31] Practicing the rhumba

[00:02:49] And from this confusion

[00:02:54] I dreamed of a grand illusion

[00:02:59] It's my Tenement Symphony in four flats
