《Blues Song(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Blues Song (Album Version) - The Dead Milkmen

[00:00:03] We can stand naked on the corner

[00:00:05] Of Main Street baby and

[00:00:07] Let everybody slow down and take a look

[00:00:12] You can drive your Cadillac to the library

[00:00:14] Baby and maybe read the

[00:00:17] Last ten pages of an Agatha Christie book

[00:00:21] You can feed my cat to my dog

[00:00:23] And turn around and feed my dog to my horse

[00:00:30] You can screw the whole damn royal family

[00:00:32] Baby until they

[00:00:34] All get a divorce

[00:00:38] Baby baby baby

[00:00:40] Baby you can do anything you wanna do baby

[00:00:42] I swear it will not bother me

[00:00:43] Cause baby you know

[00:00:44] Baby you know you've got to

[00:00:45] You've got to

[00:00:46] You've got to be what you're going to be

[00:00:52] You can burn down the orphanage

[00:00:53] Baby over there on the

[00:00:55] Poor side of town

[00:01:00] You can go to the circus

[00:01:00] Baby frighten the elephants

[00:01:02] See if you can get them to maybe

[00:01:04] Trample a clown

[00:01:08] You can steal the prize out of

[00:01:09] My box of cereal baby and

[00:01:12] Replace it with a rat

[00:01:16] You can walk up to someone

[00:01:17] Who might be a little overweight

[00:01:19] And be kinda sensitive about it and say

[00:01:21] "Oh my god you're really fat "

[00:01:25] Live and let live baby

[00:01:26] That's the cornerstone

[00:01:27] The very essence of my philosophy

[00:01:29] And baby

[00:01:30] Baby you know

[00:01:30] You know you've got to

[00:01:31] You've got to

[00:01:32] You've got to be what you're going to be

[00:01:37] I'm gonna play my harmonica

[00:01:41] Since I charge 35 dollars a note

[00:01:43] I'm not gonna play much of my harmonica

[00:01:46] You see the blues

[00:01:47] The blues isn't an art form

[00:01:49] It's not a type of music

[00:01:50] The blues is a product

[00:01:51] Not unlike computer chips or tampons

[00:01:54] The blues is a way for white kids to feel

[00:01:56] That they understand the feelings of black people

[00:01:58] Without ever having to meet any of them

[00:02:02] The blues is all these things and more

[00:02:04] Available for 19 95

[00:02:10] Oh baby

[00:02:11] Baby you can do whatever you wanna do baby

[00:02:13] Baby you know it's not going to bother me

[00:02:15] Cause baby you know

[00:02:16] You know you've got to

[00:02:16] You've got to be what you're going to be

[00:02:21] Here comes the solo

[00:02:29] Ooh and what a solo it is

[00:02:33] You know

[00:02:34] That might not be the blues

[00:02:36] But it sure makes me sad

[00:02:44] Listen in the distance

[00:02:46] The sound of Leadbelly rolling in his grave

[00:02:56] I've said it before baby

[00:02:57] I'll say it again

[00:02:58] Live and let live

[00:02:59] The very essence the cornerstone

[00:03:01] The summit of my philosophy

[00:03:02] Baby baby you know

[00:03:03] Baby you know you've got to

[00:03:04] You've got to be what you're going to be

[00:03:09] A blues man needs a nickname

[00:03:12] And everybody calls me Two Shoes

[00:03:14] Cause I always wear two shoes

[00:03:16] I know It's not much of a nickname

[00:03:17] But by the time I got around to

[00:03:19] Getting my nickname

[00:03:20] All the good ones were taken

[00:03:21] Take for example Blind Lemon Lipschitz

[00:03:25] Blind Lemon Lipschitz gouged out

[00:03:27] His own eyes with his thumbnails

[00:03:28] So he could be called blind lemon

[00:03:32] It's true don't laugh

[00:03:35] He felt the very essence of the blues

[00:03:38] Calling him from within

[00:03:40] And he felt that contract too

[00:03:42] Oh baby

[00:03:42] Baby you know

[00:03:43] Baby you know you can do whatever you do

[00:03:45] I don't care

[00:03:45] I don't give a damn baby

[00:03:46] It's not gonna bother me

[00:03:47] Cause baby baby b-b-b-b-b-b-b

[00:03:50] You gotta

[00:03:50] You gotta

[00:03:50] You gotta

[00:03:51] You gotta

[00:03:51] You gotta be

[00:03:52] You gotta be what you're going to be
