《Magdalene Lane》歌词

[00:00:00] Magdalene Lane - Don McLean (唐·麦克林)

[00:00:10] The angels are lost in the city of stars

[00:00:15] The wise men are down on their knees

[00:00:20] And the fruitman of freeway will sell you his cars

[00:00:25] When he＇s sure that you can＇t find the keys

[00:00:29] And the ladies on Magdalene lane

[00:00:33] All worship the sun and the sand

[00:00:38] And the migrants who come can＇t complain

[00:00:43] For this is their promised land

[00:00:47] La la la la la la la la la

[00:00:51] La la la la la la la

[00:00:55] La la la la la la la la la

[00:01:00] La la la la la la la

[00:01:07] MGM studios can＇t make the nut

[00:01:11] They＇re auctioning Dorothy＇s shoes

[00:01:16] Gable is gone the good witch is a slut

[00:01:21] And I＇ve got the parking lot blues

[00:01:25] The wizard brought benzadrine smiles

[00:01:29] And he never let Dorothy doze

[00:01:33] She died as she walked down the aisle

[00:01:38] And all that remains is her clothes

[00:01:43] Over the rainbow a Kansas tornado

[00:01:47] Can twist up a little girl′s head

[00:01:51] Aunt Em＇s on relief and the tinman＇s a thief

[00:01:56] And even the wizard can＇t wake the dead

[00:02:01] La la la la la la la la la

[00:02:05] La la la la la la la

[00:02:12] The prophet has come to this kingdom of lights

[00:02:16] But there＇s no one to listen or learn

[00:02:21] And the savior performs for the prophet＇s delight

[00:02:26] While dissenters are banished or burned

[00:02:30] And the heretics beg to be heard

[00:02:34] But the savior＇s on tour for the week

[00:02:38] Salvation is found in his word

[00:02:43] If only he＇d learn how to speak

[00:02:48] And Lincoln is laughing with Amos ＇n＇ Andy

[00:02:52] Concerning the Great Civil War

[00:02:56] And Paul Revere sleeps with the worst looking creeps

[00:03:00] While revolution＇s knocking at his door

[00:03:05] La la la la la la la la la

[00:03:09] La la la la la la la

[00:03:16] Magdalene Lane is the red light domain

[00:03:20] Where everyone＇s soul is for sale

[00:03:25] A piece of your heart will do for a start

[00:03:29] But you can send us the rest in the mail

[00:03:33] For we have our own families to feed

[00:03:38] And we can＇t let them starve just for you

[00:03:42] Well we＇d rather not watch while you bleed

[00:03:46] So come back in an hour when you＇re through

[00:03:51] It＇s just another city full of sorrow

[00:03:55] It makes no difference why I came

[00:04:00] I only know I＇m leaving here tomorrow

[00:04:04] And only the motel man knows my name
