《Time Trades》歌词

[00:00:00] Time Trades - Jeffrey Lewis

[00:00:14] Time is gonna take so much away

[00:00:17] But there's a way that time can offer you a trade

[00:00:20] Time is gonna take so much away

[00:00:23] But there's a way that time can offer you a trade

[00:00:27] You gotta did something that you can get nicer at

[00:00:30] You gotta did something that you can get wiser at

[00:00:33] You better did something that you can get better at

[00:00:36] 'Cause that's the only thing that time will leave you with

[00:00:40] 'Cause time is gonna take so much away

[00:00:43] But there's a way that time can offer you a trade

[00:00:46] It might be cabaret it could be poetry

[00:00:50] It might be trying to make a new happy family

[00:00:53] It could be violin repair or chemistry

[00:00:56] But if it's something that takes lots of time that's good

[00:01:00] 'Cause time is gonna take so much away

[00:01:03] But there's a way that time can offer you a trade

[00:01:06] Because your looks are gonna leave you

[00:01:10] And your citys gonna change too

[00:01:13] And your shoes are gonna wear through

[00:01:17] Yeah time is gonna take so much away

[00:01:20] But there's a way that you can offer time a trade

[00:01:23] You gotta did something that you can get smarter at

[00:01:26] You gotta did something you might just be a starter at

[00:01:30] You better did something that you can get better at

[00:01:33] 'Cause that's the thing that time will leave you with

[00:01:50] And maybe that's why they call a trade a trade

[00:01:53] Like when they say the

[00:01:54] You should go and learn a trade

[00:01:56] The thing you did don't have

[00:01:57] To be to learn a trade

[00:01:59] Just get something back from

[00:02:01] Time for all it takes away

[00:02:03] It could be many things it could be anything

[00:02:06] It could be expertise in

[00:02:08] Middle Eastern traveling

[00:02:09] Something to slowly sow

[00:02:11] The balance life's unraveling

[00:02:13] You have no choice you have

[00:02:14] To pay time's price

[00:02:16] But you can use the price to

[00:02:18] Buy you something nice

[00:02:20] Something you can only buy with lots of time

[00:02:23] So when you're old you blow

[00:02:24] Some whippersnapper's mind

[00:02:26] It might be researching a book

[00:02:28] That takes you seven years

[00:02:30] A book that helps to make the path

[00:02:31] We take to freedom clear

[00:02:33] And when you're done

[00:02:34] You see it started with a good idea

[00:02:36] One good idea could cost

[00:02:38] You thousands of your days

[00:02:40] But it's just time that you'd be spending anyway

[00:02:43] You have no choice you have to pay time's price

[00:02:46] But you can use the price to

[00:02:48] Buy you something nice

[00:02:51] So I've decided recently

[00:02:54] To try to trade more decently
