《Priest with Balloons》歌词

[00:00:15] Not regular party size;

[00:00:18] Waves crash on either side.

[00:00:22] He's wearing polypropylene,

[00:00:25] Clutching at straws, holding onto string.

[00:00:33] What was he looking for -

[00:00:35] Truth, or was it Heaven?

[00:00:39] Or did he just want to go out with a bang,

[00:00:43] So to speak?

[00:00:47] He's put his helmet on,

[00:00:49] Steps out, floats on into the sky,

[00:00:56] Goodbye!

[00:01:01] It's funny, but I can understand why:

[00:01:08] I want to live where the traffic controllers

[00:01:12] Are ballet dancers,

[00:01:18] And billboards painted over with colours;

[00:01:25] Where unkindness is fined

[00:01:28] In numbers of roses,

[00:01:32] And nobody feels like taking the commons,

[00:01:39] Nobody feels like taking the commons.

[00:01:48] While some were meant for sea, in tug-boats

[00:01:52] 'Round the shore's knee,

[00:01:55] (Milling with the sand,

[00:01:57] And always coming back to land),

[00:02:02] For others, up above

[00:02:04] Is all they care to think of,

[00:02:09] Up there with the birds and clouds, and Words don't follow.

[00:02:15] There are times when I sit down to tea,

[00:02:19] Some well-meaning companion will ask me,

[00:02:28] How's it going with everything?

[00:02:35] Quite nicely,

[00:02:38] But:I want to live

[00:02:42] Where the traffic controllers are Ballet dancers,

[00:02:49] And billboards painted over with colours;

[00:02:55] Where unkindness is fined

[00:02:58] In numbers of roses,

[00:03:02] And nobody feels like taking the commons,

[00:03:09] Nobody feels like taking the commons,

[00:03:16] Nobody feels like taking the commons.

[00:03:25] 'Though time has soldiered on,

[00:03:27] I still think upon him;

[00:03:32] Waging with the sky, he's crying Goodbye!

[00:03:39] What was he looking for -

[00:03:41] Truth, or was it Heaven?

[00:03:45] Or did he just want to go out with a bang,

[00:03:49] So to speak?
