《Sealion》歌词

[00:00:00] Sealion - Jethro Tull

[00:00:28] Over the mountains and under the sky

[00:00:32] Riding dirty gray horses go you and I

[00:00:37] Mating with chance copulating with mirth

[00:00:41] The sad glad paymasters for what it's worth

[00:00:45] The ice cream castles are refrigerated

[00:00:49] The super marketeers are on parade

[00:00:53] There's a golden handshake hanging round your neck

[00:00:57] As you light your cigarette on the burning deck

[00:01:02] And you balance your world on the tip of your nose

[00:01:05] Like a sealion with a ball at the carnival

[00:01:09] You wear a shiny skin and a funny hat

[00:01:14] The almighty animal trainer lets it go at that

[00:01:18] You bark ever so slightly at the trainer's gun

[00:01:22] With you whiskers melting in the noon day sun

[00:01:27] You flip and you flop under the big white top

[00:01:31] Where the long legged ring mistress starts and stops

[00:01:35] But you know after all the act is wearing thin

[00:01:39] As the crowd grows uneasy and the boos begin

[00:01:44] But you balance your world on the tip of your nose

[00:01:47] You're a sealion with a ball at the carnival

[00:02:25] Just a trace of pride upon our fixed grins

[00:02:29] For there is no business like the show we're in

[00:02:33] There is no reason no rhyme no right

[00:02:37] To leave the circus 'til we've said good night

[00:02:42] The same performance in the same old way

[00:02:45] It's the same old story to this passion play

[00:02:50] So we'll shoot the moon and hope to call the tune

[00:02:54] And make no pin cushion of this big balloon

[00:02:58] Look how we balance the world on the tips of our noses

[00:03:02] Like sealions with a ball at the carnival
