《Remnants of Percy Bass》歌词

[00:00:00] He scrapes the dirt from his nails with a stick

[00:00:09] He makes a big pile in a pail on the sink

[00:00:17] Who was he

[00:00:19] Oh I'll never tell

[00:00:21] He has not got a thing left to sell

[00:00:26] Ooo the remnants of Percy Bass

[00:00:35] He glued the newspaper to the wall

[00:00:44] Skeleton closets are down the hall

[00:00:51] Nobody knows him like I do

[00:01:03] I remember when there were things he could do

[00:01:09] Some things are not made to last

[00:01:14] Ooo the remnants of Percy Bass

[00:01:17] Some things are things like this

[00:01:20] He could catch a rabbit with one hand

[00:01:24] He could build a castle out of sand He was

[00:01:39] A handsom man

[00:01:40] He gave a tender kiss

[00:01:47] Nobody knows about the fancy shows you starred in

[00:01:51] When you were seventeen I'll never

[00:01:53] Tell about your secret life

[00:01:56] To a magazine

[00:02:00] I can remember when you were the shallow hero

[00:02:04] It was so long ago when you were

[00:02:09] Everybody's shining star

[00:02:14] You were a daydream

[00:02:15] But now

[00:02:16] He needs someone to hold his hand

[00:02:25] Nothing has quite worked out how he had planned

[00:02:30] I try to help him how I can

[00:02:41] But he has forgotten who I am

[00:02:49] Remember

[00:02:51] Some things are not made to last

[00:02:58] Ooo the remnants of Percy Bass

[00:03:06] Some things are not made to last

[00:03:15] Ooo the remnants of Percy Bass
