《Liaisons》歌词

[00:00:00] Liaisons - Stephen Sondheim

[00:00:10] At the villa of the Baron De Signac

[00:00:15] Where I spent a somewhat infamous year

[00:00:20] At the villa of the Baron De Signac

[00:00:25] I had ladies in attendance

[00:00:28] Fire-opal pendant

[00:00:30] Liaisons What's happened to them

[00:00:35] Liaisons today

[00:00:40] Disgraceful What's become of them

[00:00:44] Some of them

[00:00:45] Hardly pay their shoddy way

[00:00:50] What once was a rare champagne

[00:00:53] Is now just an amiable hock

[00:00:55] What once was a villa at least

[00:00:57] Is digs

[00:01:00] What once was a gown with train

[00:01:03] Is now just a simple little frock

[00:01:05] What once was a sumptuous feast

[00:01:08] Is figs

[00:01:11] No not even figs raisins

[00:01:19] Ah liaisons

[00:01:23] Now where was I Where was I Oh yes

[00:01:29] At the palace of the Duke of Ferrara

[00:01:34] Who was prematurely deaf but a dear

[00:01:39] At the palace of the Duke of Ferrara

[00:01:44] I acquired some position

[00:01:46] Plus a tiny Titian

[00:01:49] Liaisons What's happened to them

[00:01:54] Liaisons today

[00:01:59] To see them indiscriminate

[00:02:03] Women it

[00:02:04] Pains me more than I can say

[00:02:09] The lack of taste that they display

[00:02:16] Where is style

[00:02:18] Where is skill

[00:02:20] Where is forethought

[00:02:25] Where's discretion of the heart

[00:02:27] Where's passion in the art

[00:02:30] Where's craft

[00:02:33] With a smile

[00:02:35] And a will

[00:02:37] But with more thought

[00:02:42] I acquired a chateau

[00:02:45] Extravagantly overstaffed

[00:02:50] Too many people muddle sex

[00:02:53] With mere desire

[00:02:55] And when emotion intervenes

[00:02:57] The nets descend

[00:02:59] It should on no account perplex

[00:03:02] Or worse inspire

[00:03:04] It's but a pleasurable means

[00:03:08] To a measurable end

[00:03:13] Why does no one comprehend

[00:03:18] Let us hope this lunacy's just a trend

[00:03:23] Where was I Where was I Oh yes

[00:03:29] In the castle of the King of the Belgians

[00:03:34] We would visit through a false chiffonier

[00:03:39] In the castle of the King of the Belgians

[00:03:44] Who when things got rather touchy

[00:03:47] Deeded me a duchy

[00:03:50] Liaisons What's happened to them

[00:03:55] Liaisons today

[00:04:00] Untidy Take my daughter I

[00:04:03] Taught her I

[00:04:04] Tried my best to point the way

[00:04:09] I even named her Desiree

[00:04:18] In a world where the kings are employers

[00:04:26] Where the amateur prevails

[00:04:29] And delicacy fails

[00:04:31] To pay

[00:04:34] In a world where the princes are lawyers

[00:04:43] What can anyone expect

[00:04:47] Except to recollect

[00:04:51] Lia
