《梦想的旅店》歌词

[00:00:00] Beat Hotel - Allan Taylor

[00:00:22] Paris nineteen fifty-six

[00:00:24] Number nine rue Git le Coeur

[00:00:28] Word is out and everybody's beating on the door

[00:00:32] Madame Rachou will let you in

[00:00:34] Just smile and ring the bell

[00:00:37] Welcome to Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:00:47] The sweet smell of Pernod

[00:00:49] A Gauloise cigarette

[00:00:51] It's a cosmic congregation but you ain't seen nothing yet

[00:00:56] It's an open invitation

[00:00:59] An existential clientele

[00:01:01] All looking for Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:01:11] They looked for it in New York City and San Francisco Bay

[00:01:16] They looked for in bebop jazz and it blew them all away

[00:01:21] They tried out every avenue and then said

[00:01:24] What the hell

[00:01:26] We'll look for it in Paris at the Beat hotel

[00:01:36] Burroughs came up from Tangiers

[00:01:38] Ginsberg from New York

[00:01:40] Kerouac came up from Italy

[00:01:43] And slept out in the park

[00:01:45] Gregory Corso came and went

[00:01:47] And where he's at no one can tell

[00:01:50] He's still looking for Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:02:00] Take me to your leader

[00:02:02] Take me to the man

[00:02:04] Someone has got the answer

[00:02:06] Someone's got the perfect plan

[00:02:09] If you're looking in the alleys

[00:02:11] If you're looking in the bars

[00:02:14] You'll find us in the gutter

[00:02:18] Looking at the stars

[00:02:28] This ragged band of poets Christians Buddhists Jews

[00:02:33] A new beat generation searching for the Muse

[00:02:38] Some found it in the arms of a mystic mademoiselle

[00:02:43] Looking for Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:02:52] The rooms count up to forty-one

[00:02:54] But you can sleep out in the hall

[00:02:57] For a few centimes you can get

[00:02:58] A drink and write your poems on the wall

[00:03:01] And the marijuana mixes with the Tukish toilet smell

[00:03:06] It's all part of Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:03:16] Alex Campbell strums an old guitar someone picked up in Spain

[00:03:21] Ginsberg's howling poetry and Kerouac's drunk again

[00:03:26] The rent is overdue there must be something they can sell

[00:03:31] Maybe they can sell Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:03:40] Someone's taking photographs

[00:03:42] Janine takes off her clothes

[00:03:45] Marlene's meditating and concentrating on her toes

[00:03:50] Jasmine hides in room sixteen and curls up in her shell

[00:03:54] She's communing with Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:04:04] Take me to your leader

[00:04:06] Take me to the man

[00:04:08] Someone has got the answer someone's got the perfect plan

[00:04:13] If you're looking in the alleys

[00:04:15] If you're looking in the bars

[00:04:17] You'll find us in the gutter

[00:04:21] Looking at the stars

[00:04:32] They did it for the journey and not for getting there

[00:04:36] Fame is in a whisper when you pay the taxi fare

[00:04:41] It's just this side of

[00:04:42] Heaven and a long long way from hell

[00:04:46] It's somewhere in Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:04:55] Nothing lasts forever and forever's in a rhyme

[00:05:00] It's a Buddha-like connection

[00:05:02] And everybody has their time

[00:05:04] If you want to drink the

[00:05:05] Water you've got to dig into the well

[00:05:09] Maybe then you'll find Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:05:19] It was over by nineteen sixty-three and everyone had gone

[00:05:23] But they'd opened up the road and the revolution was getting won

[00:05:28] When the poems were painted over and they rang the final bell

[00:05:33] It was goodbye to Nirvana at the Beat hotel

[00:05:43] The myth is stronger than the truth

[00:05:45] And truth can sometimes lie

[00:05:47] To see it all for what

[00:05:48] It was you need an uncorrupted eye

[00:05:52] Was the journey worth it

[00:05:54] Only time will tell

[00:05:56] Still looking for Nirvana

[00:06:00] At the Beat hotel

[00:06:06] Take me to your leader

[00:06:08] Take me to the man

[00:06:10] Someone has got the answer

[00:06:12] Someone's got the perfect plan

[00:06:15] If you're looking in the alleys

[00:06:17] If you're looking in the bars

[00:06:19] You'll find us in the gutter

[00:06:23] Looking at the stars

[00:06:28] Looking at the stars

[00:06:32] We're looking at the stars
