《The Sea Refuses No River》歌词

[00:00:00] The Sea Refuses No River - Pete Townshend

[00:00:21] I remember being richer than a king

[00:00:24] The minutes of the day were golden

[00:00:28] I recall that when the joint passed round

[00:00:31] My body felt a little colder

[00:00:35] But now I'm like a sewer channel running lime and scag

[00:00:42] Let me get at the master panel let me at my stack

[00:00:50] The sea refuses no river

[00:00:54] And right now this river's banks are blown

[00:01:01] The sea refuses no river

[00:01:04] Whether stinking and rank

[00:01:06] Or red from the tank

[00:01:08] Whether pure as a spring

[00:01:10] There's no damned thing stops the poem

[00:01:15] The sea refuses no river

[00:01:20] And this river is homeward flowing

[00:01:37] I have seen a trace of strain

[00:01:40] In other's eyes not spoken

[00:01:43] I must admit that I enjoyed their pain

[00:01:46] But this time it's me that's broken

[00:01:51] I demand for you and his

[00:01:54] This must be the time

[00:01:57] When we decide what freedom is

[00:02:00] Turn water into wine

[00:02:05] For the sea refuses no river

[00:02:09] We're polluted now but in our hearts still clean

[00:02:16] The sea refuses no river

[00:02:20] We tried not to age

[00:02:21] But time had it's rage

[00:02:23] We're washed over stones

[00:02:25] From babes into clones of the mean

[00:02:30] The sea won't refuse this muddy river

[00:02:35] Nor deny the sulfurous stream

[00:03:40] There was a fool in a dressing robe

[00:03:44] Riding out the twilight hour

[00:03:47] Lonely and cold in an empty home

[00:03:51] Trying to assess his power

[00:03:54] But now he's like a stream in flood

[00:03:58] Swollen by the storm

[00:04:02] He doesn't care if he sheds his blood

[00:04:05] Let him be reborn

[00:04:10] For the sea refuses no river

[00:04:13] Remember that when the beggar buys a round

[00:04:20] The sea refuses no river

[00:04:24] And rain fills the gutters

[00:04:26] No time for stutters

[00:04:27] This is our chance

[00:04:29] To sing and to dance and to clown

[00:04:34] The sea refuses no river

[00:04:40] And rivers were sprung to drown

[00:04:48] The sea refuses no river

[00:04:52] No pecking code respected for the damned

[00:04:59] The sea refuses no river

[00:05:02] Whether starving or ill

[00:05:04] Or strung on some pill

[00:05:06] Just 'cause you own the land

[00:05:08] There's no unique hand plugs the dam

[00:05:13] The sea refuses no river

[00:05:18] And the river is where I am

[00:05:39] The river is where I am
