《The Lizards》歌词

[00:00:00] The Lizards - Phish

[00:00:29] Passing through the corridor I came upon an aging knight

[00:00:33] Who leaned against the wall in gnarly armor

[00:00:37] He was on his way to see the king

[00:00:41] Wilson Wilson Wilson

[00:00:49] He led me through the streets of Prussia talking

[00:00:51] As he tried to crush a bug

[00:00:53] That scurried underneath his boot heel

[00:00:57] He said there was a place where we should go

[00:01:02] So he lead me through the forest to the edge of a lagoon by which

[00:01:06] We wandered 'til we reached a bubbly spring

[00:01:10] The knight grew very quiet as we stood there

[00:01:14] Then he lifted up his visor

[00:01:15] And he turned to me and he began to sing

[00:01:18] He said I come from the land of darkness

[00:01:20] I said I come from the land of doom

[00:01:22] He said I come from the land of Gamehendge

[00:01:24] From the land of the big baboon

[00:01:26] But I'm never never going back there

[00:01:28] And I couldn't if I tried

[00:01:29] 'Cause I come from the land of Lizards

[00:01:31] And the Lizards they have died

[00:01:33] And the Lizards they have died

[00:01:35] And the Lizards they have died

[00:01:36] And the Lizards they have

[00:01:55] He told me that the Lizards

[00:01:56] Were a race of people practically extinct

[00:01:59] From doing things smart people don't do

[00:02:02] He said that he was once a Lizard too

[00:02:13] His name was Rutherford the brave

[00:02:16] And he was on a quest to save

[00:02:18] His people from the fate that lay before them

[00:02:21] Their clumsy end was perilously near

[00:02:27] The Lizards would be saved he said if they could be enlightened

[00:02:30] By the writings of the helping friendly book

[00:02:34] In all of Prussia only one existed

[00:02:38] And Wilson had declared that any person who possessed it was a crook

[00:02:43] He said I come from the land of darkness

[00:02:44] I said I come from the land of doom

[00:02:46] He said I come from the land of Gamehendge

[00:02:48] From the land of the big baboon

[00:02:50] But I'm never never going back there

[00:02:52] And I couldn't if I tried

[00:02:54] 'Cause I come from the land of Lizards

[00:02:56] And the Lizards they have died

[00:02:57] And the Lizards they have died

[00:02:59] And the Lizards they have died

[00:03:01] And the lizards they have

[00:03:19] The helping friendly book it seemed

[00:03:20] Possessed the ancient secrets

[00:03:22] Of eternal joy and never ending splendor

[00:03:26] The trick was to surrender to the flow

[00:03:37] We walked along beneath the moon

[00:03:39] He lead us through the bush 'till soon

[00:03:41] We saw before our eyes a raging river

[00:03:45] He said that we could swim it if we tried

[00:03:50] And saying this the knight dove in forgetting that his suit of arms

[00:03:54] Would surely weigh him down and so he sunk

[00:03:58] And as his body disappeared before me

[00:04:01] I bowed my head in silence

[00:04:03] And remembered all the thoughts that he had thunk

[00:04:06] He said I come from the land of darkness

[00:04:08] I said I come from the land of doom

[00:04:10] He said I come from the land of Gamehendge

[00:04:11] From the land of the big baboon

[00:04:13] But I'm never never going back there

[00:04:15] And I couldn't if I tried

[00:04:17] 'Cause I come from the land of Lizards

[00:04:19] And the Lizards they have
