《Things It Would Have Been Helpful to Know Before the Revolution》歌词

[00:00:00] Things It Would Have Been Helpful to Know Before the Revolution - Father John Misty

[00:00:16] It got too hot and so we overthrew the system

[00:00:21] 'Cause there's no place for human existence like right here

[00:00:28] On this bright blue marble orbited by trash

[00:00:37] Man there's no beating that

[00:00:42] It was no big thing to give up the way of life we had

[00:00:49] Oh ho oh

[00:00:55] My social life is now quite a bit less hectic

[00:01:01] The nightlife and the protests are pretty scarce

[00:01:07] Now I mostly spend the long days walking through the city

[00:01:16] Empty as a tomb

[00:01:20] Sometimes I miss the top of the food chain

[00:01:26] But what a perfect afternoon

[00:01:47] Industry and commerce toppled to their knees

[00:01:53] The gears of progress halted

[00:01:56] The underclass set free

[00:01:59] The super ego shatters with our ideologies

[00:02:05] The obscene injunction to enjoy life

[00:02:09] Disappears as in a dream

[00:02:12] And as we return to out native state

[00:02:16] To our primal scene

[00:02:19] The temperature it started dropping

[00:02:23] The ice floes began to freeze

[00:02:43] From time to time we all get a bit restless

[00:02:48] With no one advertising to us constantly

[00:02:55] But the tribe at the former airport

[00:02:59] Some nights has meat and dancing

[00:03:03] If you don't mind gathering and hunting

[00:03:08] We're all still pretty good at eating on the run

[00:03:15] Things it would have been helpful to know before the revolution

[00:03:29] Though I'll admit some degree of resentment

[00:03:34] For the sudden lack of convenience around here

[00:03:41] But there are some visionaries among us developing some products

[00:03:50] To aid us in our struggle to survive

[00:03:56] On this godless rock that refuses to die
