《Thick As Thieves》歌词

[00:00:00] Thick As Thieves (LP版) - Natalie Merchant

[00:00:01] Written by：Merchant Na

[00:00:03] Remember how it all began

[00:00:05] The apple and the fall of man

[00:00:08] The price we paid

[00:00:11] So the people say

[00:00:15] Down a path of shame

[00:00:17] It lead us dared to bite the hand

[00:00:20] That fed us the fairy tale

[00:00:23] The moral end

[00:00:25] The wheel of fortune

[00:00:26] Never turns again

[00:00:37] Never turns again

[00:00:49] The worst of it has come and gone

[00:00:52] In the chaos of millennium

[00:00:55] In the falling out

[00:00:57] Of the doomsday crowd

[00:01:01] Their last retreat is moving slow

[00:01:04] They burn their bridges as they go

[00:01:07] The heretic is beatified

[00:01:12] Teach the harlot's child

[00:01:14] To smile

[00:01:37] Wracked again by indecision

[00:01:40] Should we make that small incision

[00:01:43] Testify to the bleeding heart inside

[00:01:49] We cut we scratched

[00:01:50] We rent we slashed

[00:01:52] And when he opened up at last

[00:01:55] Found a cul de sac

[00:01:57] Deep and black

[00:02:00] Of smoke and ash

[00:02:12] Deep and black

[00:02:14] Of smoke and ash

[00:02:26] The wicked king of parody

[00:02:29] Is kissing all his enemies

[00:02:32] On the seventh day

[00:02:36] Of the seventh week

[00:02:39] The tyrant's voice is softer now

[00:02:42] But just for one forgiving hour

[00:02:45] Before the rise of his

[00:02:50] Iron fist again

[00:03:02] Fist again

[00:03:52] I've come tonight

[00:03:53] I've come to know

[00:03:55] The way we are

[00:03:56] The way we'll go

[00:03:58] And to measure this

[00:04:01] The width of the wide abyss

[00:04:05] I come to you in restless sleep

[00:04:08] Where all your dreams

[00:04:10] Turn bitter sweet

[00:04:11] With voodoo doll philosophies

[00:04:16] And day glo holy trinities

[00:04:19] The crooked raft that leaves the shore

[00:04:23] Ferries drunken souls aboard

[00:04:25] Pilgrims march to Compestela

[00:04:28] Visions of their saint in yellow

[00:04:32] Follow deep in trance

[00:04:34] Lost in a catatonic dance

[00:04:37] Know no future

[00:04:38] Damn the past

[00:04:40] Blind warm ecstatic

[00:04:42] Safe at last
