《Saratoga Summer Song》歌词

[00:00:00] Saratoga Summer Song - Kate & Anna McGarrigle

[00:00:14] We were nice young adults

[00:00:17] We proved ourselves we showed results

[00:00:20] Like cats and dogs who'd undergone a fix

[00:00:28] Fashionably cynical

[00:00:30] And love to us was clinical

[00:00:34] Long ago we gave up getting our kicks

[00:00:40] But the summer sun came down on all

[00:00:44] And it was fun to feel and fun to fall

[00:00:48] Into a sloppy teenage scene

[00:00:55] Gossiping and having crushes

[00:00:57] Dimming lights to hide our blushes

[00:01:01] My god I thought I was sixteen

[00:01:08] All those happy hours

[00:01:14] Turn the green buds into flowers

[00:01:21] This crazy summer is over

[00:01:27] No more bees no more clover

[00:01:33] And the rope at the swimming hole swings by the weight of the wind

[00:01:43] Skidmore girls come back to town

[00:01:50] All the freaks head underground

[00:01:55] And we who are free swing like the rope from that tree

[00:02:05] We danced and played some tennis

[00:02:08] Made love with fred our dentist

[00:02:11] We drank lots of beer and ate a whole lot of food

[00:02:17] We put our bodies to the sun

[00:02:20] Forgot to see in everyone

[00:02:23] We swam dressed and we swam nude

[00:02:29] And the new york city ballet dancers

[00:02:32] Danced for all the neighborhood cancers

[00:02:35] Celebrating their birthdays in the sun

[00:02:42] And all that sun brought dope and lust

[00:02:45] We weren't too smart we had a bust

[00:02:48] But nobody slept alone

[00:02:55] Nighttime into day

[00:03:01] Summer went away

[00:03:08] This crazy summer is past now

[00:03:14] Sunrise to sunset is fading fast now

[00:03:20] And all I want is to see the rope on that tree

[00:03:29] So bring back the bagels bring back the lox

[00:03:36] Let's have another vernal equinox

[00:03:41] Bring back the laughs bring back the tears

[00:03:44] Bring back the beers bring back the dope and the rope
