《Charlie The Midnight Maurader (LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Calling car four one

[00:00:02] Calling car four one

[00:00:05] Investigate a code seven

[00:00:07] At one one six West 14th Street and report

[00:00:12] Looks like Charlie's at it again

[00:00:17] Oh Charlie was raised in the city

[00:00:21] He scoffed at the suburban life

[00:00:24] 'Til Satan disguised as a salesman

[00:00:26] Bewitched and bewildered his wife

[00:00:30] She heard of the pleasures of rural life

[00:00:33] With barbecues under the tree

[00:00:36] And so for a mere forty thousand

[00:00:39] He purchased their dream house with ease

[00:00:43] He rose before dawn every morning

[00:00:46] To dreamily fall into line

[00:00:48] Yawn

[00:00:49] And follow that bumper before him

[00:00:51] Beep beep

[00:00:52] To be on the job before nine

[00:00:55] His dream house of crumbling stucco

[00:00:58] Was more like a nightmarish load

[00:01:02] His weekends were spent in hard labor

[00:01:04] He dug and he pruned and he mowed

[00:01:08] One night an electrical failure

[00:01:10] Woohoo

[00:01:11] Blacked out every street in the tract

[00:01:14] Our hero drove up in confusion

[00:01:17] But couldn't locate his new shack

[00:01:21] Each cracker box looked like the one next door

[00:01:24] As far as the eye could see

[00:01:27] And he cursed to himself as he pondered

[00:01:30] Now where in the world can it be

[00:01:34] He searched 'til a door looked familiar

[00:01:37] Then tried out his key in the lock

[00:01:40] The door opened wide and he entered

[00:01:43] Poor Charlie was on the wrong block

[00:01:46] He strode to the couch of his sleeping love

[00:01:50] He kissed her and backed off in fright

[00:01:53] Shreik

[00:01:53] The girl he had kissed was a stranger

[00:01:56] Who screamed and ran out in the night

[00:01:59] They caught him a few minutes later

[00:02:02] Still rooted and shaking with fear

[00:02:06] They called him the Midnight Marauder

[00:02:08] And put him away for a year

[00:02:12] And put him away for a year

[00:02:15] And put him away for a year

[00:02:19] They called him the Midnight Marauder

[00:02:21] And put him away for a year

[00:02:25] When a salesman is touting suburbia

[00:02:28] He's doing it purely for self

[00:02:32] Remember the story of Charlie

[00:02:34] And tell him to move there himself

[00:02:38] And tell him to move there himself

[00:02:41] And tell him to move there himself

[00:02:44] Remember the story of Charlie

[00:02:47] And tell him to move there himself
