《Maria Teresa Teresa Maria(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] Maria Teresa Teresa Maria (Live) - Laurie Anderson
[00:00:03] Last spring I spent a week in a convent in the midwest
[00:00:10] I'd been invited there to do a
[00:00:11] Series of seminars on language
[00:00:16] They'd gotten my name from a list in washington
[00:00:20] From a brochure that described my work as
[00:00:24] Deals with the spiritual issues of our time
[00:00:29] Undoubtedly a blurb I had written myself
[00:00:36] Because of this and also because men
[00:00:40] Were not allowed to enter the convert
[00:00:44] They asked me to come out
[00:00:48] The night I arrived they had a party
[00:00:51] For me in a nearby town
[00:00:53] In a downstairs lounge of a crystal
[00:00:56] Lane's bowling alley
[00:01:00] The alley was reserved for the nuns
[00:01:03] For their tuesday night tournaments
[00:01:07] It was a pizza party
[00:01:10] And the lounge was decorated to look like a cave
[00:01:15] Every surface was covered with that spray on rock
[00:01:19] That's usually used for soundproofing in this case
[00:01:25] It had the opposite effect: it amplified every sound
[00:01:31] Now the nuns were in the middle
[00:01:33] Of their annual tournament playoffs
[00:01:36] And we could hear all the bowling balls
[00:01:38] Rolling very slowly down the aisles above us
[00:01:43] Making the rock club stalactites
[00:01:46] Tremble and resonate
[00:01:51] Finally the pizza arrived and the mother superior
[00:01:56] Began to bless the food
[00:01:59] Now this woman normally had a
[00:02:01] Gruffed low pitched
[00:02:02] Speaking voice but as soon as she
[00:02:05] Began to pray her voice rose
[00:02:10] Became pure bell like like a child's
[00:02:20] The prayer went on and on increasing
[00:02:23] In volume each time a sister got a strike
[00:02:26] Rising in pitch dear father in heaven
[00:02:38] The next day I was scheduled to begin
[00:02:41] This seminar on language
[00:02:44] I'd been very struck by this prayer and
[00:02:47] I wanted to talk about how
[00:02:48] Women's voices rise in pitch
[00:02:52] When they're asking for things
[00:02:55] Especially from men
[00:02:58] But it was odd every time I set
[00:03:01] A time for the seminar
[00:03:03] There was some reason to postpone it
[00:03:06] The potatoes had to be dug out
[00:03:09] Or a busload of old people would
[00:03:12] Appear out of nowhere
[00:03:16] And have to be shown around
[00:03:19] So I never actually did the seminar
[00:03:25] But I spent a lot of time there
[00:03:28] Walking around the grounds
[00:03:30] And looking at all the crops
[00:03:32] Which were all labeled
[00:03:35] And there was also a neatly laid out cemetery
[00:03:39] Hundreds of identical white crosses in rows
[00:03:44] And there were labeled maria
[00:03:49] Teresa maria teresa
[00:03:55] Teresa maria and the only sadder cemetery
[00:04:00] I saw was last summer in switzerland
[00:04:06] And I was dragged there by a
[00:04:07] Hermann hesse fanatic
[00:04:10] Very serecirely swide
[00:04:12] Who had never recovered from reading
[00:04:16] And one hot august morning
[00:04:19] When the sky was quiet
[00:04:21] We made a pilgrimage to the cemetery
[00:04:25] We brought a lot of flowers and we
[00:04:28] Finally found his grave
[00:04:30] It was marked with a huge fur tree and
[00:04:33] A mammoth stone
[00:04:35] That said hesse in huge helvetica bold letters
[00:04:41] It looked more like a marquee than a tombstone
[00:04:44] And around the corner was this
[00:04:47] Tiny stone for his wife
[00:04:49] Nina and on it was one word auslander foreigner
[00:05:02] And this made me so sad and so mad
[00:05:07] That I was sorry
[00:05:08] I'd brought the flowers anyway I
[00:05:13] Decided to leave the flowers
[00:05:16] Along with a mean note and it read
[00:05:23] Even though you're not my favorite
[00:05:24] Writer by long shots
[00:05:32] I leave these flowers on your resting spot
