《People Say a Lot(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] People Say a Lot (Album Version) - Carly Simon (卡莉·西蒙)

[00:00:27] People say a lot when they want the job yeah

[00:00:30] Lining up sideways around the block

[00:00:33] "It's not for the money" she say to you

[00:00:36] Almost convincing herself that it's true

[00:00:39] "I'll take care of your dog when you're away"

[00:00:43] "I don't mind working Saturdays"

[00:00:46] "When you wanna work I'll work with you" she say

[00:00:49] "And I'll go on working when you wanna play"

[00:00:52] "Nothing gonna hurt you when I'm around"

[00:00:55] "I'll keep my eyes wide open and my nose to the ground"

[00:00:59] "I'll be like a mama with a baby cub"

[00:01:02] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:01:05] People say a lot when they want the job yeah

[00:01:09] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:01:18] When you begin to see a sinister gleam

[00:01:22] You're locked in too tight on the same team

[00:01:25] There's a little holiday in her heart

[00:01:28] When she sees you slip up Ahhhhh

[00:01:31] It's like Christmas Eve just to see you trip up

[00:01:35] Ooops then down again

[00:01:38] She'll sit on the floor hardly hiding a grin

[00:01:41] When her tears spill out crocodile chagrin

[00:01:44] It's her contempt for you she thinks you're a slob

[00:01:48] People say a lot when they want the job yeah

[00:01:51] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:01:54] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:01:59] Greatest cook to bring a meal (didn't need a recipe)

[00:02:02] Said she'll also deal the cards (dealt the knave and two and three)

[00:02:08] Said she also feel the thrill of the willow in the wind

[00:02:13] (feel the thrillo the willow---- or oak or elm or ash or pine sol)

[00:02:18] It's already too late when she's reading your mail

[00:02:21] Calling your agent and making the deal

[00:02:24] She'll just copy and paste it and make it last

[00:02:28] Nothing is sacred about your past

[00:02:31] She'll tell of the poppies in the July fest

[00:02:34] Maybe her brother with the badge can make the arrest

[00:02:37] "You could go to jail fail all the tests"

[00:02:41] "Forget your keys and your secrets and your little black box"

[00:02:48] People say a lot when they want the job yeah

[00:02:51] People say a lot when they want the job yeah

[00:02:54] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:02:58] She was awfully good at fire (fiery fiery hussy burn)

[00:03:03] She burned bridges where she could (she really couldn't burn them very well)

[00:03:08] She turned young men into torches (burning scarecrow)

[00:03:12] She had a way with wood (do away with wood do away with wood)

[00:03:18] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:03:20] Lining up eager around the block

[00:03:24] Promising promising never to quit

[00:03:27] Well it's a full time job to be a hypocrite

[00:03:31] Maybe they remember that they've done it before

[00:03:34] Practicing with their dolls on the floor

[00:03:37] The lie itself becoming the seed

[00:03:40] The messy mascara the future deed

[00:03:43] The actor's bow the junkie's need

[00:03:47] They line up again just to wipe you clean

[00:03:50] They line up again just to wipe you out

[00:03:53] Line up again around the block

[00:03:56] A mighty force of youth for hire

[00:04:00] Spouting ideas that geniuses would rob ohhhhh

[00:04:07] People say a lot when they want the job oh

[00:04:10] People say a lot when they want the job ah

[00:04:13] People say a lot when they want the job yeah

[00:04:16] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:04:19] People say a lot when they want the job

[00:05:12] "Tell me Phoebe do you want someday

[00:05:14] To have an award like that of your own "

[00:05:17] "More than anything else in the world"

[00:05:20] "Then you must ask Miss Harrington how to get one

[00:05:24] …Miss Harrington knows all about it"
