《Funeral Tango》歌词

[00:00:00] Funeral Tango - Scott Walker

[00:00:02]

[00:00:06] Oh I can see them now

[00:00:09] Clutching a hankerchief

[00:00:11] And blowing me a kiss

[00:00:13] Discreetly asking how

[00:00:18] How came he died so young

[00:00:20] Or was he very old

[00:00:22] Is the body still warm

[00:00:24] Or is it already cold

[00:00:28] All doors are open wide

[00:00:30] They grope around inside

[00:00:32] At my desk my drawers my trunk

[00:00:35] There's nothing left to hide

[00:00:37] Some love letters are there

[00:00:39] And an old photograph

[00:00:41] They've laid my poor soul bare

[00:00:43] And now all they do is laugh

[00:00:44]

[00:00:48] Oh I can see them all

[00:00:51] So formal and so stiff

[00:00:53] Like a seargant at arms

[00:00:55] At a policeman's ball

[00:00:59] And everybody's pushing

[00:01:01] To be the first in line

[00:01:04] Their hearts upon their sleeves

[00:01:05] Like a ten cent valentine

[00:01:10] The old women are there

[00:01:12] Too old to give a damn

[00:01:14] They've brought along the kids

[00:01:16] Who don't know who I am

[00:01:18] They're thinking about

[00:01:20] The price of my funeral bouquet

[00:01:22] What they're thinking isn't nice

[00:01:25] For now they'll have to pay

[00:01:26]

[00:01:29] Oh I see all of you

[00:01:31] All of my phoney friends

[00:01:33] Who can't wait for it ends

[00:01:35] Who can't wait till it's through

[00:01:39] Oh I see all of you

[00:01:41] You've been laughing all these years

[00:01:43] Now all that you have left

[00:01:45] Are a few crocodile tears

[00:01:50] Ah you don't even know

[00:01:51] That you're entering your hell

[00:01:53] As you leave my cemetary

[00:01:55] You think you're doing well

[00:01:58] With that one who's at your side

[00:02:00] You're as proud as you can be

[00:02:02] Ah she's going to make you cry

[00:02:04] But not the way you cried for me

[00:02:06]

[00:02:09] Oh I can see me now

[00:02:13] So cold and so alone

[00:02:15] As the flowers slowly die

[00:02:17] In my field of little bones

[00:02:21] Oh I can see me now

[00:02:23] I can see me at the end

[00:02:25] Of this voyage that I/m on

[00:02:27] Without a love without a friend

[00:02:32] Now all this that I see

[00:02:33] Is not what I deserve

[00:02:35] They really have a nerve

[00:02:37] To say these things to me

[00:02:40] No girls just bread and water

[00:02:42] And your money you must save

[00:02:43] For there'll be nothing left for us

[00:02:45] When you're dead and in your grave
