《The Pax Britannica》歌词

[00:00:00] The Pax Britannica - Ian Anderson
[00:00:09] I came to woo you at behest of
[00:00:11] Uncle Leo did my best
[00:00:14] To charm and Hatter sooth lay thoughts
[00:00:16] Of scheming Saxon Prince to rest
[00:00:19] Just seventeen you were emboldened
[00:00:22] Turned away plain Orange boy
[00:00:25] And made for me a consort haven
[00:00:28] In your heart haven of joy
[00:00:34] Now Empire spills a growing blot
[00:00:36] Across the atlas leaves its mark
[00:00:39] The hands of men in iron ships stoke
[00:00:41] Their boilers fan the spark
[00:00:45] Generous in deed and promise our
[00:00:47] Emissaries make fair trade
[00:00:50] And pay with sovereign Queenly coin for goods
[00:00:54] And worldly fortunes made
[00:00:59] We will win them and contain them
[00:01:01] Not by Enneld Pattern gun:
[00:01:04] No hard coercion whip or stick but
[00:01:06] Ten good shillings to be won
[00:01:09] See we offer contracts clear in
[00:01:12] English plain as it appears
[00:01:15] In small print some trifling matters:
[00:01:18] Not important never fear
[00:01:24] Pax Britannica Pax Britannica rules
[00:01:26] The headland and the wave
[00:01:28] Hansa spirit will enrich us keep
[00:01:31] Us from an early grave
[00:01:34] Sweet Victoria Mother England
[00:01:37] Gracious queen whom God will save
[00:02:07] We'll leave them gifts of architecture
[00:02:09] Engineering laws and more
[00:02:13] The willow bat the bowler hat of
[00:02:15] Gentlemen who keep the score
[00:02:18] Head-up code of moral conduct
[00:02:20] Never minions to deceive
[00:02:23] Straight the ball and best ofall when
[00:02:27] Time is come we take our leave
[00:02:32] Pax Britannica Pax Britannica rules
[00:02:35] The headland and the wave
[00:02:37] Hansa spirit will enrich us keep
[00:02:40] Us from an early grave
[00:02:42] My sweet Victoria your dearest Albert;
[00:02:49] Two ledger lines above the stave
