[00:00:01] Mamah Borthwick (A Sketch) - Conor Oberst (康纳·奥博斯特)

[00:00:02] Written by：Conor Oberst

[00:00:25] Just because you got it

[00:00:28] You don't have to flaunt it

[00:00:30] With an endless dream of famous men

[00:00:38] Pretty as a portrait

[00:00:41] Looked like mamah borthwick

[00:00:43] On that shining brow of taliesin

[00:00:51] Someone might try and burn it down

[00:00:57] So you'll have to put the fire out

[00:01:03] Fortunes spent but that's irrelevant to build something

[00:01:11] That's sacred till the end

[00:01:28] It cost twenty dollars to visit fallingwater

[00:01:33] It's the perfect house where no one lives

[00:01:40] Maybe someone once did

[00:01:44] But they got evicted by a busload full of greedy tourists

[00:01:54] And it would take a time machine

[00:02:00] To fulfill all of my fantasies

[00:02:04] 'Cause a hidden dream can be embarrassing

[00:02:12] And the only thing that's sacred till the end

[00:02:33] Every time I tempt fate

[00:02:35] There's a major earthquake

[00:02:38] Heard the people scream as the ceiling fell

[00:02:45] Every building damaged

[00:02:48] Only one left standing

[00:02:50] It was Frank Lloyd Wright's Imperial Hotel

[00:02:59] A rumination in my mind

[00:03:04] Winding like the ramp at the Guggenheim

[00:03:11] I'm not content

[00:03:14] But I'm feeling hesitant to build something

[00:03:19] That's sacred till the end
