《Rent》歌词

[00:00:00] Rent - The New Musical Cast

[00:00:14] How do you document real life

[00:00:17] When real life's getting more like fiction each day

[00:00:22] Headlines bread-lines blow my mind

[00:00:24] And now this deadline eviction or pay rent

[00:00:32] How do you write a song when the chords sound wrong

[00:00:36] Though they once sounded right and rare

[00:00:40] When the notes are sour

[00:00:41] Where is the power you once had to ignite the air

[00:00:46] We're hungry and frozen some life that we've chosen

[00:00:49] How we gonna pay How we gonna pay

[00:00:55] How we gonna pay Last year's rent

[00:01:09] How do you start a fire when there's nothing to burn

[00:01:12] And it feels like something's stuck in your flue

[00:01:17] How can you generate heat when you can't feel your feet

[00:01:21] And they're turning blue

[00:01:23] You light up a mean blaze with posters and screenplays

[00:01:26] How we gonna pay How we gonna pay

[00:01:31] How we gonna pay Last year's rent

[00:02:00] How do you stay on your feet when on every street

[00:02:04] It's trick or treat and tonight it's trick

[00:02:08] Welcome back to town I should lie down

[00:02:11] Everything's brown and uh-oh I feel sick

[00:02:15] Where is he Getting dizzy

[00:02:18] How we gonna pay How we gonna pay

[00:02:23] How we gonna pay Last year's rent

[00:02:52] The music ignites the night with passionate fire

[00:02:57] The narration crackles and pops with incendiary wit

[00:03:03] Zoom in as they burn the past to the ground

[00:03:06] And feel the heat of the future's glow

[00:03:14] How do you leave the past behind

[00:03:17] When it keeps finding ways to get to your heart

[00:03:21] It reaches way down deep and tears you inside out

[00:03:25] 'Til you're torn apart rent

[00:03:29] How can you connect in an age

[00:03:31] Where strangers landlords lovers

[00:03:33] Your own blood cells betray

[00:03:36] What binds the fabric together

[00:03:38] When the raging shifting winds of change

[00:03:42] Keep ripping away

[00:03:45] Draw a line in the sand and then make a stand

[00:03:47] Use your camera to spar use your guitar

[00:03:50] When they act tough you call they're bluff

[00:03:53] We're not gonna pay we're not gonna pay

[00:03:58] We're not gonna pay last year's rent

[00:04:04] This year's rent next year's rent

[00:04:09] Rent rent rent rent rent

[00:04:12] We're not gonna pay rent

[00:04:14] 'Cause everything is rent
