《Shipbuilding(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Shipbuilding (造船) (Album Version) - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)

[00:00:12] Is it worth it

[00:00:17] A new winter coat and shoes for the wife

[00:00:24] And a bicycle on the boy's birthday

[00:00:29] It's just a rumor that was spread around town

[00:00:34] By the women and children

[00:00:37] Soon we'll be shipbuilding

[00:00:45] Well I ask you

[00:00:50] The boy said dad they don't take me to task

[00:00:58] But I'll be back by christmas

[00:01:02] It's just a rumor that was spread around town

[00:01:07] Somebody said that someone got filled in

[00:01:12] For saying that people get killed in

[00:01:17] The result of this shipbuilding

[00:01:25] With all the will in the world

[00:01:30] Diving for dear life

[00:01:34] When we could be diving for pearls

[00:01:59] It's just a rumor that was spread around town

[00:02:04] A telegram or a picture postcard

[00:02:09] Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyards

[00:02:14] And notifying the next of kin

[00:02:19] Once again

[00:02:23] It's all were skilled in

[00:02:28] We will be shipbuilding

[00:02:38] With all the will in the world

[00:02:43] Diving for dear life

[00:02:54] When we could be diving for pearls

[00:03:37] It's all we're skilled in

[00:03:42] We will be shipbuilding

[00:03:52] With all the will in the world

[00:03:57] Diving for dear life

[00:04:09] When we could be diving for pearls

[00:04:19] When we could be diving for pearls

[00:04:29] When we could be diving for pearls
