《Greenfinch and Linnet Bird》歌词

[00:00:00] Greenfinch and Linnet Bird - Stephen Sondheim

[00:00:04] Green finch and linnet bird

[00:00:05] Nightingale blackbird

[00:00:07] How is it you sing

[00:00:11] How can you jubilate

[00:00:13] Sitting in cages

[00:00:15] Never taking wing

[00:00:19] Outside the sky waits

[00:00:21] Beckoning beckoning

[00:00:23] Just beyond the bars

[00:00:27] How can you remain

[00:00:29] Staring at the rain

[00:00:30] Maddened by the stars

[00:00:35] How is it you sing anything

[00:00:41] How is it you sing

[00:00:45] Green finch and linnet bird

[00:00:46] Nightingale blackbird

[00:00:48] How is it you sing

[00:00:52] Whence comes this melody

[00:00:54] Constantly floating

[00:00:56] Is it rejoicing or merely a loaming

[00:01:00] Are you discussing

[00:01:02] Or fussing

[00:01:03] Or simply dreaming

[00:01:08] Are you crowing

[00:01:13] Are you screaming

[00:01:19] Ring dove and robinet

[00:01:21] Is it for wages

[00:01:23] Singing to be sold

[00:01:27] Have you decided it's safer in cages

[00:01:31] Singing when you're told

[00:01:34] My cage has many rooms

[00:01:36] Damask and dark

[00:01:38] Nothing there sings

[00:01:40] Not even my lark

[00:01:44] Larks never will you know

[00:01:46] When they're captive

[00:01:48] Teach me to be more adaptive

[00:01:58] Green finch and linnet bird

[00:02:00] Nightingale blackbird

[00:02:02] Teach me how to sing

[00:02:06] If I cannot fly

[00:02:13] Let me sing
