《Slavin Away》歌词

[00:00:00] Slavin Away - The Fiery Furnaces
[00:00:00] Slavin' away
[00:00:03] All for you my love
[00:00:06] And I've nothin' to show for it
[00:00:10] Cept my dusty old book full of pictures
[00:00:13] A dusty old book
[00:00:16] Tell me a story
[00:00:19] Bout how I wasn't so tired
[00:00:22] From my slavin' away
[00:01:19] I ran off
[00:01:22] Put on corduroy knickers that I got from the coal shovelin' kid
[00:01:26] And hitchhiked in a rickety old ford
[00:01:30] Hitchhiked in a rattly old norton side car
[00:01:34] Down strange roads
[00:01:37] In the purrin' rain as the poet put it
[00:01:42] On up to st Paul
[00:01:44] On a cold day in the middle of the fall
[00:01:49] And they picked me up for not wearin' a dress
[00:01:54] And suspended my sentence
[00:01:56] If I wore somethin' with a strap that was pink
[00:02:00] And I scrubbed up on somebody's sink
[00:02:03] So now I catch the canadian pacific
[00:02:07] And not be too specific just somewhere up north
[00:02:11] And get into lumber and slumber when I like
[00:02:14] And in the spring ride down into cheyenne on my bike
[00:03:26] I looked out the window
[00:03:30] And I stuck my head out the door
[00:03:35] And the snow was melting so slow
[00:03:42] And the sky was light but so gray
[00:03:48] Slavin' away
[00:03:51] And all for nothin' my love
[00:03:55] Cookin' and washin' in the morning
[00:03:59] And startin' at 9:25
[00:04:02] I assemble six boxes of little plastic christmas trees
[00:04:09] And put in the blue leds
[00:04:12] On kid toy cell phones with borg batteries
[00:04:15] And then on to the sewing machine
[00:04:18] Stick the labels on purple T-shirts
[00:04:22] And the arms on pull-over jumpers for the uk
[00:04:27] Slavin' away
[00:04:30] All for you my love
[00:04:33] And I've nothin' to show for it
[00:04:37] I've nothin' to show for it
[00:05:44] I could see her lookin' in the mirror at me
[00:05:49] Wonderin' if it wasn't plain for everyone to see
[00:05:55] Nothin' ever seemed to turn out how it might be
[00:06:01] I could see her doubting now that all had gone and went
[00:06:07] That anything she got was equal what that she'd spent
[00:06:13] That she never seemed to get back what that she'd lent
[00:06:19] Anyway they did have a son
[00:06:21] And by the time he was married and I played at his wedding too at holy trinity
[00:06:24] I was choir director myself
[00:06:28] Rehearsals in the basement twice a week
[00:06:34] I demanded we'd be in peak condition
[00:06:38] And everything seemed to be going quite well
[00:06:44] I got along well with the priest
