《Keep Away》歌词

[00:00:00] Keep Away - Lou Reed

[00:00:02] Written by：Lou Reed/Michael Fonfara

[00:00:14] You keep your jealousy and your snide remarks to yourself

[00:00:18] You know that I'm not seeing anybaby else

[00:00:21] You just keep your ear down to the ground

[00:00:25] Yell your head off if you hear a sound

[00:00:28] Heres a whistle a badge and a phone

[00:00:32] You can arrest me if I'm not at home

[00:00:35] And if I don't keep my word I swear

[00:00:37] I'll keep away

[00:00:49] Heres some books and a puzzle by escher

[00:00:52] Heres shakespeares measure for measure

[00:00:56] Heres a balloon a rubber band and a bag

[00:00:59] Why don't you blow them up if you think you've been had

[00:01:02] Heres a castle a paper dragon and a moat

[00:01:06] An earring a toothbrush and a cloak

[00:01:09] And if I don't keep my word I swear

[00:01:12] I'll keep away

[00:01:15] I swear I'll keep away from all weve ever done

[00:01:19] I'll keep away the good times I'll keep away the fun

[00:01:22] I swear I'll join the army or maybe the marines

[00:01:26] I'll start to wear designer suits and put away my jeans

[00:01:29] I swear that I'll keep away from all my old-time friends

[00:01:32] I'll throw away my records I'll try to make amends

[00:01:36] I swear I'll give up gambling and playing with the rent

[00:01:39] I'll give up food and drinking

[00:01:41] I'll give up a life I'll-spent

[00:01:50] Heres a yardstick you can measure me by

[00:01:53] Heres a coupon maybe theres something you want to buy

[00:01:56] Heres a bandied in case you cut your feet

[00:02:00] Heres a rubber mallet you can use on your front teeth

[00:02:03] Heres a gun no one uses anymore

[00:02:06] And a bracelet made of some expensive ore

[00:02:10] And if I don't keep my word

[00:02:13] You won't see me anymore

[00:02:17] I swear I'll keep away from dignity and pride

[00:02:20] I'll keep away from abstracts I'll keep it all inside

[00:02:23] Well I'll just wrap me up in butter

[00:02:25] And melt me on a shelf

[00:02:27] I'll fry in my own juices I'll become somebody else

[00:02:30] Well I'll just swear to

[00:02:31] Keep away from everything that's good

[00:02:34] I'll lie down in the gutter where I really should

[00:02:37] I swear I'll light a candle to every modern foe

[00:02:40] I swear I'll close the book on this

[00:02:42] And not see you anymore

[00:02:43] 'Cause I just got to get away
