《Four Simple Words》歌词

[00:00:00] Four Simple Words - Frank Turner (法兰克·透纳)

[00:00:04] Because we're all so very twenty first century

[00:00:11] You're probably listening to me on some kind of portable stereo

[00:00:18] Maybe you're sitting on the back of the bus

[00:00:22] Or it's running up your sleeve

[00:00:24] And you're across from your boss

[00:00:27] Or you're sitting in your bedroom on your

[00:00:29] Own with the lights down low

[00:00:32] I'd like to teach you four simple words

[00:00:36] So that next time you come to a show

[00:00:40] You could sing those words back at me like

[00:00:43] They're the only ones that you know

[00:00:49] I want to dance I want to dance

[00:00:57] I want lust and love and a smattering of romance

[00:01:05] But I'm no good at dancing yet I have to do something

[00:01:14] Tonight I'm going to play it straight I'm going to take my chance

[00:01:21] I want to dance

[00:01:28] Hi ho hi ho hi ho we're heading out to the punk rock show

[00:01:32] Colleagues and friends condescend with a smile

[00:01:34] But this is my culture man this is my home

[00:01:37] The dark huddled masses gather at the gate

[00:01:39] The doors at 7 the show starts at 8

[00:01:42] A few precious hours in a space of our own

[00:01:44] And when the band comes on the only thing I really know:

[00:01:47] I want to dance I want to dance

[00:01:52] I want lust and love and a smattering of romance

[00:01:57] But I'm no good at dancing yet I have to do something

[00:02:02] Tonight I'm going to play it straight

[00:02:04] I'm going to take my chance I want to dance

[00:02:19] Is anyone else sick of the music

[00:02:21] Churned out by lacklustre scenesters from Shoreditch

[00:02:24] Oh it's all sex drugs and sins like they're extras from Skins

[00:02:27] But it's OK because they don't really mean it

[00:02:29] I want bands who had to work for their keep

[00:02:31] Drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep

[00:02:34] Sleeping on the floor in a stranger's place

[00:02:36] Hungry just to do it all again the next day

[00:02:38] I want to dance I want to dance

[00:02:44] I want lust and love and a smattering of romance

[00:02:48] But I'm no good at dancing yet I have to do something

[00:02:54] Tonight I'm going to play it straight

[00:02:56] I'm going to take my chance

[00:02:59] I want to dance

[00:03:06] Put your hands on your hips

[00:03:08] Bring your knees in tight

[00:03:11] Yeah we do this sh*t together man

[00:03:13] No fists no fights

[00:03:16] We're not trying to shape the world so people think like us

[00:03:21] We just want our own space to dance

[00:03:23] No favours no fuss

[00:03:26] On blood sweat and vinyl we have a built ourselves a house

[00:03:29] So if the roof is on fire then we're going to put it out

[00:03:31] Forget about the bitching and remember that you're blessed

[00:03:33] Because punk is for the kids who never fit in with the rest

[00:03:36] Somebody told me that music with guitars

[00:03:39] Was going out of fashion and I had to laugh

[00:03:41] This sh*t wasn't fashionable back when I fell in love

[00:03:44] So if the hipsters move on why should I give a f**k

[00:03:50] I want to dance I want to dance

[00:04:04] I want lust and love and a smattering of romance

[00:04:16] But I'm no good at dancing

[00:04:20] Yet I have to do something

[00:04:26] Tonight I'm going to play it straight

[00:04:28] I'm going to take my chance

[00:04:30] I want to dance I want to dance

[00:04:35] I want me and you both to join hands down at the front

[00:04:40] So the next time I see you remember these words so

[00:04:46] We'll sing like the barricades are down

[00:04:48] And we'll dance like no one's around

[00:04:50] Singing four simple words
