《Unrehearsed》歌词

[00:00:00] Unrehearsed - Peter Hammill

[00:00:25] Time for the unrehearsed entrance

[00:00:30] Show a leg you can break

[00:00:36] Down the cocktail

[00:00:37] While it's laughing at you for heaven's sake

[00:00:43] I can't be your protector

[00:00:48] From these deliberate mistakes

[00:00:56] Between the can't and the maybe

[00:01:00] A lifetime's hovering in the wings

[00:01:05] Grasp the nettle bite the bullet

[00:01:09] Push your own buttons and pull your own strings

[00:01:15] Name your poison

[00:01:17] While you've got the power 100 proof

[00:01:23] I can't be your protector

[00:01:28] From self neglect or abuse

[00:01:33] This is not a rehearsal

[00:01:38] And fear is not an excuse

[00:01:45] And if you won't step out on the boards

[00:01:49] You'll find your place already on the shelf

[00:01:54] You can only find the sum of your parts yourself

[00:02:23] Unprepared and unready

[00:02:26] Is that an excuse or a point of view

[00:02:31] You can block out the words in anagrammatical sword play

[00:02:35] But it's your own life you'll be running through

[00:02:40] Time to drink a cocktail

[00:02:43] Of your own invention for pity's sake

[00:02:48] I can't be your protector

[00:02:53] I won't be there when you wake

[00:02:57] To honour all the hidden intentions

[00:03:02] In your deliberate mistakes

[00:03:06] In your deliberate mistakes

[00:03:11] Behind your deliberate mistakes

[00:03:22] Deliberation could be mistaken for coldness of the heart

[00:03:31] Procrastination won't get you

[00:03:34] Anywhere except aloof and apart

[00:03:39] What's the golden opportunity

[00:03:42] You're hanging on here for

[00:03:44] Isn't it just this

[00:03:45] Go start

[00:03:55] Unrehearsed and unready

[00:03:56] That's what we are

[00:03:58] That's what we've all been cast into

[00:04:07] It's not four square the beat's unsteady

[00:04:09] But this is this

[00:04:10] And making something of it's up to you

[00:06:03] An unexpected exit's always waiting

[00:06:07] Although you think it's something you'll bluff your way through

[00:06:12] Spit that wooden spoon out of your mouth

[00:06:16] And eat up the moment's long overdue

[00:06:21] Take your medicine

[00:06:22] And face whatever the future brings

[00:06:27] I can't be your protector

[00:06:32] Can't keep you under my wing

[00:06:37] This is not a rehearsal

[00:06:42] This is the real thing

[00:06:52] This is the real thing

[00:06:56] This is for real
