《The Gardener Of Eden (A Three Piece Suite)》歌词

[00:00:10] The Gardener Of Eden (A Three Piece Suite) - The Style Council

[00:02:43] True I was a gardener once upon a time

[00:02:57] When the world was young and all the earth was mine

[00:03:12] Mine to tend to to plough and to sow

[00:03:26] Before mankind came and rendered all things low

[00:03:41] And beauty was it's first name by this I would call

[00:03:55] And ready the harvest for one and for all

[00:04:38] The orchards and the wheat fields which could of fed the world

[00:04:52] Were divided up like money and sold through human slaves

[00:05:06] The rivers fresh the hillsides that had no need of name

[00:05:21] Now ran red with the life blood and drunk with guilty shame

[00:05:35] The gentle bough was broken and twisted out of shape

[00:05:42] And who knows the consequences when the bough doth break

[00:05:49] The mother soil which reared it's young now reared her angry head

[00:05:56] And rain fell down like teardrops upon the flower beds

[00:06:03] The blame for this I'm in no doubt is mine and mine alone

[00:06:17] But so proud was I of my work I had to share it's growth

[00:06:31] This true I was a gardener in the time before the flood

[00:06:45] Now these green fingers of mine are stained by angels' blood
