《Selling Rope (Swan Dive to Estuary)》歌词

[00:00:00] Selling Rope (Swan Dive to Estuary) - Los Campesinos!

[00:00:29] As I swan dive into the estuary,

[00:00:35] The birds do not flinch at my fall

[00:00:41] They perch in the rafters, before,

[00:00:44] During after they do not notice me at all

[00:00:51] As I float down into the estuary,

[00:00:57] Wind cases my body in cool

[00:01:02] I smell petrol fumes,

[00:01:05] See the smoke rise in plumes

[00:01:08] The earth is one big fireball

[00:01:13] The earth is one big fireball

[00:01:20] Anecdote, lie

[00:01:22] My own alibi

[00:01:25] I've been telling jokes

[00:01:30] Piled notes high

[00:01:33] My own alibi

[00:01:36] I've been selling rope

[00:01:43] As I break the film of the estuary,

[00:01:49] The seaweed submerges my form

[00:01:54] No passing cars stop, not a single jaw drops,

[00:01:59] As my wallet and keys sink before.

[00:02:05] A splash all I left in the world

[00:02:11] Anecdote, lie

[00:02:14] My own alibi

[00:02:16] I've been telling jokes

[00:02:22] Piled notes high

[00:02:24] My own alibi

[00:02:27] I've been selling rope

[00:02:35] Once held a magpie in the palm of my hand

[00:02:39] And the blood in our veins flowed faster,

[00:02:43] As I'd planned

[00:02:45] Got a heart full of love and a head full of more

[00:02:50] But a fist full of threads from the seams

[00:02:57] And I saw a smile in that beak.

[00:03:03] Anecdote, lie

[00:03:05] My own alibi

[00:03:08] I've been telling jokes

[00:03:13] Piled notes high

[00:03:16] My own alibi

[00:03:19] I've been selling rope

[00:03:24] Oh I was a bird right then,

[00:03:27] One day I will be again

[00:03:29] I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you

[00:03:35] Oh I was a bird right then,

[00:03:38] One day I will be again

[00:03:40] I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you

[00:05:15] Oh I was a bird right then,

[00:05:18] One day I will be again

[00:05:20] I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you

[00:05:26] Oh I was a bird right then,

[00:05:28] One day I will be again

[00:05:31] I've been telling jokes while selling rope to you

[00:05:35] There's no ticker tape,

[00:05:37] No golden gate

[00:05:39] No carnival and no parade

[00:05:41] Just one, one for sorrow

[00:05:46] There's no ticker tape,

[00:05:48] No golden gate

[00:05:49] No carnival and no parade

[00:05:52] Just one, one for sorrow
