《Pieces and Parts》歌词

[00:03:43] Laurie Anderson - Pieces and Parts

[00:03:43] They say that in 1842 on a plantation in Alabama

[00:03:43] The slaves unearthed a huge skeleton,

[00:03:43] The bones of a giant whale,

[00:03:43] A leviathan,

[00:03:43] From the time when all the world was covered with water

[00:03:43] From the andes to the himalayas

[00:03:43] And even alabama was deep down under.

[00:03:43] And the slaves looked at the huge bones and they said:

[00:03:43] These must be the bones of a fallen angel

[00:03:43] These must be the bones of a fallen angel

[00:03:43] Out on the ocean, out of the water

[00:03:43] We look for signs of him

[00:03:43] He looks like a giant snow hill, a fountain

[00:03:43] Then he disappears. He's a speck on the horizon

[00:03:43] We see him only in parts

[00:03:43] The flash of a tail, his beating heart.

[00:03:43] He's in pieces and parts.

[00:03:43] It's easier for a camel to slide through the eye of a needle

[00:03:43] Than to find a whale who hides at the bottom of the ocean

[00:03:43] It's easier to sail around the world in a coffee cup

[00:03:43] Than to see a whale when he comes rising up

[00:03:43] We see him only in parts

[00:03:43] A fountain, fins, a speck on the horizon

[00:03:43] Giant teeth, an open mouth

[00:03:43] Look out, look out, look out, look out

[00:03:43] So hit an elephant with a dart

[00:03:43] And he just reaches around and pulls it out with his trunk

[00:03:43] But hit a whale in the hear and the whole ocean turns red,

[00:03:43] It turns red.

[00:03:43] We see him only in parts

[00:03:43] The flash of a tail, his beating heart

[00:03:43] He's in pieces and parts

[00:03:43] So get hit in your head

[00:03:43] And there may be a few things you can't recall at all

[00:03:43] But you get hit in your heart

[00:03:43] And you're in pieces and parts

[00:03:43] Pieces and parts.
