《West Of Rome》歌词

[00:00:02] West Of Rome - Vic Chesnutt

[00:00:12] West of rome just east of the border

[00:00:23] In a staticy ramada inn

[00:00:35] Polishing his boots and pummeling his liver

[00:00:46] Steeped in the dark isolation

[00:01:01] Just what business does he have around here

[00:01:15] Credentials are wearing out with each little bit of cheer

[00:01:29] Yes it's a bad scene we're convening

[00:01:52] Brushing his teeth and milking his ulcer

[00:02:02] Preparing to waste another wily morning

[00:02:14] Stroking himself and them phoning up his sister

[00:02:24] He tells her their life would make one whale of a movie

[00:02:39] Yes a childhood full of dry goods and wet neglect

[00:02:54] And the father they now sponge off

[00:03:01] They have no absorbing respect

[00:03:08] Yes he's a glad boy to have such a void

[00:03:30] Yes he's a martyr crawling accross cobble stones

[00:03:46] From his cozy cottages just west of rome

[00:03:59] Yes its a sad state for great suffering
