《The Ghost Of Al Capone》歌词

[00:00:00] The Ghost Of Al Capone - John Cooper Clarke

[00:00:01] Written by：John Cooper Clarke/James Hannett/Stephen Hopkins/Invisible Girls

[00:00:07] In a marble room I was alone

[00:00:11] Somewhere in the heart of Rome

[00:00:14] Through gardens long since overgrown

[00:00:18] Down old arcades of broken stone

[00:00:22] I met the ghost of Al Capone

[00:00:26] Upon request for some i.d

[00:00:29] He said the guardian angels are working for me

[00:00:44] I called for a cop he said stop or I shoot

[00:00:48] One or two holes in your three piece suit

[00:00:52] I say steady on old fruit

[00:00:56] He told me not to be so cute

[00:00:59] Consider the river and the concrete boots

[00:01:03] The devil and the deep blue sea

[00:01:07] What you saw you didn't see

[00:01:10] The guardian angels are working for me

[00:01:14] The arms the raving arms

[00:01:17] And the hustle and the bustle muscle in

[00:01:21] I get sandwiched between the palms

[00:01:25] The waving palms

[00:01:26] And the banknotes rustle like an international language

[00:01:44] Even the recession doesn't put him out of pocket

[00:01:47] Back in the depression he made a profit

[00:01:51] A one man crime wave who can stop it

[00:01:54] The aged William in his pocket

[00:01:58] Blackmail blue films narcotics

[00:02:02] Served with the style of a real neurotic

[00:02:05] And the easy smile of a true psychotic

[00:02:09] A sort of refugee

[00:02:13] From the heart of the apostolic sea

[00:02:16] From one flat fee to another flat fee

[00:02:20] The hours are short and the money's free

[00:02:24] And the guardian angels are working for me

[00:02:28] The arms the raving arms

[00:02:31] And the hustle and the bustle muscle in

[00:02:35] I get sandwiched between the palms

[00:02:39] The waving palms

[00:02:40] And the banknotes rustle like an international language

[00:02:58] I under pressure suggested it

[00:03:02] Why not confess and quit

[00:03:05] You're thirty-nine sir and less than fit

[00:03:09] He took my false address and split

[00:03:12] By the dirt roads through the fever trees

[00:03:16] In a Lamborghini if you please

[00:03:20] To get from a to b

[00:03:23] I beat my heart and bend my knee

[00:03:27] The guardian angels are working for me

[00:03:35] Paralysed in precious stone

[00:03:39] Canonized I stand alone

[00:03:42] In the clouds of paradise my home

[00:03:46] A million orchids deck the throne

[00:03:49] Of the man who numbered Al Capone

[00:03:53] The man who numbered all his bones

[00:03:57] A personal friend of the burning tree

[00:04:00] The guardian angels are working for me

[00:04:04] What you saw you didn't see

[00:04:08] The guardian angels are working for me
