《U.S. Knitting(Explicit)》歌词

[00:00:00] U.S. Knitting - Momus

[00:00:08] Mary Beth is living in a world of her own

[00:00:12] Sitting in the schoolhouse

[00:00:14] She sews all day with twine

[00:00:17] Making up a picture making up a song

[00:00:21] Some people say she's unusual in the mind

[00:00:25] They say that she's unusual in the mind

[00:00:29] My name's Abe I run the general store

[00:00:42] Mary Beth's a strange one pretty in her way

[00:00:46] Sitting in the classroom a rocking and a swaying

[00:00:50] A Sewing and a knitting to the rhythms of the rain

[00:00:55] Stuff from what she's seen mixed

[00:00:57] With stuff from in her brain

[00:00:59] And some say that you'll see America in there

[00:01:03] Folks say you'll see America there

[00:01:16] One day I had a strange dream

[00:01:18] And Mary Beth was in it

[00:01:20] I dreamed I plucked a bunch of

[00:01:22] Flowers and went to make a visit

[00:01:24] I marched up to the schoolhouse

[00:01:26] And bent down on one knee

[00:01:28] Asked Mary Beth respectfully

[00:01:30] If she would marry me

[00:01:32] Asked Mary Beth if she would marry me

[00:01:36] I said 'My name's Abe I run the general store'

[00:01:49] Mary Beth gazed down from

[00:01:51] The chair where she was sitting

[00:01:53] Said 'Abraham I thank you

[00:01:55] And I will on one condition

[00:01:58] Change the name of the store

[00:01:59] You keep call it US Knitting

[00:02:02] And move it stone by stone to

[00:02:04] The top of Sugar Mountain

[00:02:06] Move that building up to the

[00:02:08] Top of Sugar Mountain

[00:02:11] We will rebuild the general store

[00:02:23] There we'll sell my samplers

[00:02:25] Make paintings and sing songs

[00:02:27] Wait for the Lion of Judah

[00:02:29] Who is rising like the sun

[00:02:31] Our pets will be the eagles

[00:02:33] Our crest a rampant bear

[00:02:36] And we will see the whole

[00:02:37] Of America from there

[00:02:40] Some of it is pretty and some is pretty queer

[00:02:44] But we'll see the whole of America there

[00:03:05] Mary Beth's proviso didn't seem so strange

[00:03:09] I told her That scenario is easily arranged

[00:03:14] We'll live on Sugar Mountain

[00:03:16] I'll bring my General Store

[00:03:18] We'll call it US Knitting and

[00:03:20] Sell samplers by the door

[00:03:22] Our pets will be the eagles

[00:03:24] And our crest a rampant bear

[00:03:26] And when the Lion of Judah roars a mighty roar

[00:03:30] We'll see the whole of America there
