《Tripwire》歌词

[00:00:00] Tripwire (一触即发) - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)/The Roots

[00:00:09] Just because you don't speak the language

[00:00:13] Doesn't mean that you can't understand

[00:00:16] Just because you don't speak the language

[00:00:22] Doesn't mean that you can't understand

[00:00:25] The twist in the script of the insult

[00:00:31] Scrawled on the back of your hand

[00:00:36] Torn from the pages of scripture

[00:00:40] Sprayed on the wall in the frays of a flag

[00:00:45] Kisses forbidden on lips

[00:00:49] And all of your fine clothes worn into rags

[00:00:54] Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:01:03] There's a tripwire

[00:01:05] Tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:01:12] Don't open the door 'cos they're coming

[00:01:16] Don't open the door 'cos they're here

[00:01:20] Above there's an ominous humming

[00:01:25] Below there's a murmur of prayer

[00:01:30] Torn from the pages of scandal

[00:01:34] Sprayed on a wall in the frays of the flag

[00:01:39] Kisses forbidden on lips

[00:01:43] And all of your fine clothes blown into rags

[00:01:48] Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:01:57] There's a tripwire

[00:01:59] Tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:02:06] There's a cross in the line there's a circus

[00:02:10] There's a voice that you might overhear

[00:02:15] There's a lens making the picture perfect

[00:02:19] They say you have nothing to fear

[00:02:24] Torn from the pages of pamphlets

[00:02:28] Thrown in the air like confetti in church

[00:02:33] Far far away there's a target

[00:02:37] And the sound of an army just starting to march

[00:02:42] Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:02:51] There's a tripwire

[00:02:53] Tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:03:00] Just because I don't read the language

[00:03:04] Doesn't mean that I'm blind to the threat

[00:03:09] Though I thought there was more to forgiveness

[00:03:13] Than all we conveniently forget

[00:03:18] Torn from the pages of history

[00:03:22] Repeated again and again and again

[00:03:27] You're either for or against us

[00:03:31] And that is how the hatred begins

[00:03:36] Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire

[00:03:44] There's a tripwire

[00:03:47] Tripwire tripwire tripwire
