《If You Ever See Me Talking To A Sailor》歌词

[00:00:00] If You Ever See Me Talking To A Sailor (《末日之舰》音乐剧歌曲) - Rachel Tucker/The Last Ship Company

[00:00:06] Written by：Sting

[00:00:08] When the winds

[00:00:09] From the eastern quarter

[00:00:11] And there's a pungent taste of salt

[00:00:14] Upon the breeze

[00:00:16] Something troubles your insides

[00:00:18] Like a scum upon the tides

[00:00:20] A something washed up on the beach

[00:00:22] Down by the quays

[00:00:27] Intuition's what a girl

[00:00:30] In love relies on

[00:00:33] I should've known

[00:00:34] He only wanted to be free

[00:00:39] I drew my line upon the sand

[00:00:43] Only a fool would ever stand

[00:00:46] Between a man

[00:00:49] And his involvement

[00:00:53] With the sea

[00:00:59] And when the tide rolls out

[00:01:02] You'll find your bed is empty

[00:01:03] And he's gone

[00:01:07] So if you ever see me talking to a sailor

[00:01:11] Some scurvy no good mongrel of a tar

[00:01:14] You knock the drink out of my hand

[00:01:16] Push me over where I stand

[00:01:18] Take a slug at me

[00:01:19] But somewhere I won't scar

[00:01:21] Pin my body to the ground

[00:01:23] And slap my face to bring me round

[00:01:25] Then you can roll my silly ass

[00:01:27] Out of this bar

[00:01:29] For a sailor's not a man to be trusted

[00:01:33] He'll bill and coo call you his chickadee

[00:01:36] Oh but when he's had his way

[00:01:38] All you'll get is his good day

[00:01:40] Then he'll blow a kiss

[00:01:41] And scuttle back to sea

[00:01:44] And when the tide rolls out

[00:01:46] You'll find your bed is empty

[00:01:48] And he's gone

[00:01:51] So if you ever see me talking to a sailor

[00:01:55] And I blithely stand

[00:01:56] There passing time of day

[00:01:58] No don't you hesitate to think

[00:02:00] Someone's tampered with your drink

[00:02:02] And he's shaking out your handbag

[00:02:05] In the time it takes to blink

[00:02:06] And all the booze you've ever bought him

[00:02:08] He's just throwing up in the sink

[00:02:10] Just call the funny farm and carry me away

[00:02:15] For a sailor's not a man to be trusted

[00:02:18] He's treacherous as tides and hidden reefs

[00:02:22] And just to get you up the stairs

[00:02:23] He'll quote the bible in his prayers

[00:02:26] And before you know

[00:02:27] He's bound for tenerife

[00:02:29] And when the tide rolls out

[00:02:31] You'll find your house is empty

[00:02:33] And he's gone

[00:02:34] And when the tide rolls out

[00:02:37] You'll find your heart is empty

[00:02:38] And he's gone

[00:02:42] And when you become a woman

[00:02:44] Of a certain age

[00:02:46] You'll find it's difficult

[00:02:47] To trust a man

[00:02:49] Difficult to gauge

[00:02:51] When that bills rat who left you

[00:02:53] Without a living wage

[00:02:55] Thinks there's still

[00:02:56] That tawdry glamour of the sea

[00:03:00] That I swear to god's

[00:03:04] Completely lost on me

[00:03:19] So if you ever hear me

[00:03:24] Talking to a sailor

[00:03:26] Some mangy sea dog skulking

[00:03:28] On the quay

[00:03:30] Ah just remind me what I've said

[00:03:32] Or you can shoot me in the head

[00:03:44] And then throw my bleeding body

[00:03:52] In the sea

[00:04:07] You'll find your bed is empty

[00:04:08] And he's gone
