《American Without Tears》歌词

[00:00:00] American Without Tears - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)
[00:00:00] Written by:Declan MacManus
[00:00:11] Outside in New Orleans
[00:00:13] The heat was almost frightening
[00:00:15] But my hotel room as usual
[00:00:18] Was freezing and unkind
[00:00:22] On tv they prosecute
[00:00:24] Anyone who's exciting
[00:00:27] So I put on my overcoat
[00:00:30] And went down to find
[00:00:32] In Revlon and Crimpelene
[00:00:34] They captured my heart
[00:00:37] To the strain of a piano
[00:00:40] And a cocktail murderess
[00:00:43] She was singing that it's too late
[00:00:46] I agreed with that part
[00:00:50] For two English girls
[00:00:52] Who
[00:00:53] Changed their address
[00:00:54] Oh it seems we've been crying
[00:00:57] For years and
[00:01:00] For years
[00:01:03] Now I don't speak any English
[00:01:05] Just American without tears
[00:01:08] Just American without tears
[00:01:21] One had been a beauty queen
[00:01:23] And the other was her friend
[00:01:25] They had known rogues and rascals
[00:01:28] And showbiz impresarios
[00:01:31] While the boys were licking hitler
[00:01:33] They had something to defend
[00:01:36] From men armed with chewing gum
[00:01:39] And fine nylon hose
[00:01:41] By a bicycle factory
[00:01:43] As they sounded the siren
[00:01:46] And returned into the dance hall
[00:01:49] She knew he was the one
[00:01:53] Though he wasn't tall or handsome
[00:01:55] She laughed when he told her
[00:01:58] I'm the sheriff of Nottingham
[00:02:00] And this is little John
[00:02:03] Oh it seems we've been crying
[00:02:06] For years and
[00:02:08] For years
[00:02:11] Now I don't speak any English
[00:02:13] Just American without tears
[00:02:16] Just American without tears
[00:02:27] At a dock in Southampton
[00:02:30] Full of tearful goodbyes
[00:02:32] Newsreel commentators said
[00:02:35] Cheerio g I brides
[00:02:39] Soon they'll be finding
[00:02:41] The cold facts
[00:02:43] And lies
[00:02:45] New words for suspenders
[00:02:47] And young girls backsides
[00:02:51] Now I'm in America
[00:02:54] And running from you
[00:02:56] Like my grandfather before me walked
[00:02:59] Streets of New York
[00:03:03] And I think of all the women I
[00:03:06] Pretend mean more than you
[00:03:10] When I open my mouth and I
[00:03:12] Can't seem to talk
[00:03:14] Oh it seems we've been crying
[00:03:17] For years and
[00:03:20] For years
[00:03:22] Now I don't speak any English
[00:03:25] Just American without tears
[00:03:27] Just American without tears
[00:03:29] Oh it seems we've been crying
[00:03:33] For years and
[00:03:35] For years
[00:03:37] Now I don't speak any English
[00:03:40] Just American without tears
[00:03:42] Just American without tears
