《Power And Glory - The Situation(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:01] Power And Glory The Situation - Lou Reed

[00:00:17] I was visited by the power and the glory

[00:00:21] I was visited by a majestic hymn

[00:00:26] Great bolts of lightning lighting up the sky

[00:00:30] Electricity flowing through my veins

[00:00:35] I was captured by a larger moment

[00:00:39] I was seized by divinity's hot breath

[00:00:43] Gorged like a lion on experience

[00:00:48] Powerful from life

[00:00:53] (I wanted all of it all of it all of it)

[00:00:57] All of it

[00:00:59] (Not just some of it all of it all of it)

[00:01:05] All of it

[00:01:11] I saw a man turn into a bird

[00:01:15] I saw a bird turn into a tiger

[00:01:19] I saw a man hang from a cliff by the tips of his toes

[00:01:22] In the jungles of the Amazon

[00:01:26] I saw a man put a redhot needle through his eye

[00:01:30] Turn into a crow and fly through the trees

[00:01:35] Swallow hot coals and breathe out flames

[00:01:39] And I wanted this to happen to me

[00:01:43] (I wanted all of it all of it all of it)

[00:01:48] All of it

[00:01:54] (All of it all of it all of it)

[00:01:58] Not some of it

[00:02:02] We saw the moon vanish into his pocket

[00:02:05] We saw the stars disappear from sight

[00:02:10] We saw him walk across water into the sun

[00:02:13] While bathed in eternal light

[00:02:17] We spewed out questions waiting for answers

[00:02:22] Creating legends religions and myths

[00:02:27] Books stories movies and plays

[00:02:31] All trying to explain this

[00:02:35] (I wanted all of it oh all of it)

[00:02:42] All of it

[00:02:43] (All of it oh all of it)

[00:02:48] Not some of it

[00:02:53] I saw a great man turn into a little child

[00:02:56] The cancer reduce him to dust

[00:03:01] His voice growing weak as he fought for his life

[00:03:05] With a bravery few men know

[00:03:09] I saw isotopes introduced into his lungs

[00:03:13] Trying to stop the cancerous spread

[00:03:17] And it made me think of "Leda And The Swan"

[00:03:22] And gold being made from lead

[00:03:26] The same power that burned Hiroshima

[00:03:31] Causing three legged babies and death

[00:03:35] Shrunk to the size of a nickel

[00:03:39] To help him regain his breath

[00:03:43] And I was struck by the power and the glory

[00:03:47] I was visited by a majestic Him

[00:03:52] Great bolts of lightning lighting up the sky

[00:03:56] As the radiation flowed through him

[00:04:02] (I wanted all of it not just some of it all of it)

[00:04:07] He wanted all of it

[00:04:08] (All of it all of it all of it)

[00:04:15] He wanted all of it not some of it
