《The Glenorchy Bunyip》歌词

[00:00:00] The Glenorchy Bunyip - Augie March

[00:00:23] A dragon with the head of a bulldog

[00:00:27] A mountain with a crop of white snow

[00:00:30] A blue sky over Glenorchy

[00:00:34] And I've got nowhere to go

[00:00:38] I didn't ask for your name little sister

[00:00:42] I didn't ask for you to come through the door

[00:00:45] I dreamed of a face a curtain of lace

[00:00:49] An apple that had no core

[00:00:54] A tail with the girth of a fat man's thigh

[00:00:58] Slid up around the corner and was burnt upon my eye

[00:01:01] A winter light confused my sight in Glenorchy tonight

[00:01:05] When I thought that I had nothing to see

[00:01:09] So I asked the lady at 13

[00:01:11] Invalid at 32

[00:01:13] With a bottle of red only fresh from bed

[00:01:15] By the letterbox

[00:01:17] She thinks she doesn't see

[00:01:19] The things I think I see

[00:01:21] Blind by 11 and wearing her dead mother's socks

[00:01:26] Alright

[00:01:44] I was hiding in the Swan Terrace garden

[00:01:48] I saw the to and fro-ing come and going of the street

[00:01:52] There's not a lot of doing in Glenorchy of a Tuesday

[00:01:56] Shivering I accepted my defeat

[00:01:59] But as I rose up ginger I was arrested by a sight

[00:02:03] That flickered in my periphery

[00:02:07] A reflection in a Hillman Hunter window

[00:02:11] I saw that the creature was me

[00:02:15] Now the heart of a monster is the heart of a child

[00:02:19] Who never had to grow into a man -

[00:02:22] If nobody could recognise the Bunyip of Glenorchy

[00:02:27] Then wherever there's a monster no-one can

[00:02:30] Then wherever there's a monster no-one can

[00:02:34] Then wherever there's a monster no-one can
