[00:00:00] Long Live the Queen - Frank Turner (法兰克·透纳)

[00:00:01] Written by：Frank Turner

[00:00:12] I was sipping on a whiskey when I got the call

[00:00:15] Yeah my friend lex was lying in the hospital

[00:00:17] She'd been pretty sick for about half a year

[00:00:20] But it seemed like this time the end was drawing near

[00:00:23] So dropped my plans and jumped the next London train

[00:00:26] I found her laid up and in a lot of pain

[00:00:29] Her eyes met mine and then I understood

[00:00:31] That her weather forecast wasn't looking too good

[00:00:34] So I sat and spun her stories for a little while

[00:00:37] Tried to raise her mood and tried to raise a smile

[00:00:40] But she silenced all my ramblings with a shake of her head

[00:00:43] Drew me close and listen this is what she said now

[00:00:47] You'll live to dance another day

[00:00:53] It's just now you'll have to dance for the two of us

[00:00:59] So stop looking so damn depressed

[00:01:05] And sing with all your heart that the queen is dead

[00:01:09] Yeah she told me she was sick of all the hospital food

[00:01:12] And of doctors distant relatives draining her blood

[00:01:14] She said I know I'm dying but I'm not finished just yet

[00:01:17] And I'm dying for a drink and for a cigarette

[00:01:20] So we hatched a plan to book ourselves a cheap hotel

[00:01:23] In the centre of the city and to raise some hell

[00:01:25] Lay waste to all the clubs and then when everyone else is long asleep

[00:01:30] Then we know we're good and done

[00:01:33] You'll live to dance another day

[00:01:38] It's just now you'll have to dance for the two of us

[00:01:44] So stop looking so damn depressed

[00:01:50] And sing with all your heart that the queen is dead

[00:01:59] And south London's not the same any more

[00:02:05] The queen is dead

[00:02:11] And the last of the greats has finally gone to bed

[00:02:19] Well I was working on some words when Sarah called me up

[00:02:22] She said that lex had gone asleep and wasn't waking up

[00:02:26] And even though I knew that there was nothing to be done

[00:02:28] I felt bad for not being there and now well she was gone

[00:02:32] So I tried to think what lex would want me to do

[00:02:36] At times like this when I was feeling blue

[00:02:40] So I gathered up some friends to spread the sad sad news

[00:02:43] And we headed to the city for a drink or two

[00:02:47] And we sang

[00:02:50] We live to dance another day

[00:02:57] It's just now we have to dance for one more of us

[00:03:04] So stop looking so damn depressed

[00:03:12] And sing with all our hearts

[00:03:15] Long live the queen
