《Baltimore》歌词

[00:00:00] Baltimore - Audra McDonald (奥德拉·麦当娜)

[00:00:02] Written by：Doug Petty

[00:00:04] When my mother told me

[00:00:05] Don't forget your rain boots when it's wet

[00:00:08] I listened up just like a good good little girl

[00:00:12] And when she prudently suggested I should lose the cigarette

[00:00:16] I knew that bit of wisdom was a pearl

[00:00:20] But in all of the advice

[00:00:22] That I collected through the years

[00:00:24] I admit to you with trepidatious dread

[00:00:29] Unfortunately there was some that whizzed right through my ears

[00:00:33] Ah where

[00:00:35] Where was my mind when mother said

[00:00:41] Avoid navel contemplating floppy haired actors

[00:00:45] Originally from Baltimore

[00:00:49] Who excel at mime still placed vertigo

[00:00:52] And have issues with their mom

[00:00:55] Sure at first they're very charming

[00:00:58] Their attention is disarming

[00:01:00] But give attention in return

[00:01:02] And dear they'll drop you like a bomb

[00:01:04] Yes do avoid

[00:01:06] REO speedwagon loving Christopher Walken imitating thespians

[00:01:10] Originally from Baltimore

[00:01:13] Who can't piss unless their shrink says it's ok

[00:01:19] Why let them break your heart dear

[00:01:21] Put your head on and be smart dear

[00:01:23] Put some bug spray on and make them go away

[00:01:32] When my daddy told me look both ways

[00:01:34] Before you 'cross the street

[00:01:35] I took his words to heart and I complied

[00:01:39] And when he told me be yourself

[00:01:41] I should march to my own beat

[00:01:43] I did

[00:01:44] And found that truth was bonafide

[00:01:48] But in all of the advice

[00:01:49] That I collected through the years

[00:01:52] I have to say I am a bit surprised

[00:01:56] I missed the best advice that daddy trumpeted my way

[00:02:00] Ah where

[00:02:03] Where was my mind when he advised

[00:02:08] Avoid narcissistic alcoholic think they're french but they're not

[00:02:13] Waiters originally from Baltimore

[00:02:17] Who deflower you carry a copy a fountainhead in their pocket

[00:02:20] And lie about their age

[00:02:24] Sure at first their eyes are steely

[00:02:26] And their words are touchy feely

[00:02:29] Have them cheat upon you twice

[00:02:30] And my advice is more than sage

[00:02:33] Yes do steer clear

[00:02:35] Of renaissance festival loving food service consultants

[00:02:38] Originally from Baltimore

[00:02:42] Who say they dance with NYC ballet

[00:02:44] But are really an administrative intern

[00:02:48] For it's clear upon reflection

[00:02:50] If you give him your affection

[00:02:52] You will understand the concept crash and burn

[00:02:56] The singles world out there can be a scary land

[00:03:01] I have to ask is it me

[00:03:03] Or is it Maryland

[00:03:07] So if you can possibly avoid it

[00:03:10] Don't fall in love or lust or have crushes

[00:03:12] On boys from Baltimore

[00:03:15] Though at first they seem chuck full of style and class

[00:03:21] Sure Cal Ripken's charm is actual

[00:03:24] But he's married and it's factual

[00:03:26] Pamlico is not the only place you'll find a horse's a**

[00:03:30] Yes at all costs

[00:03:32] Avoid ridiculous though amusing experiences

[00:03:36] Cultivated in Baltimore

[00:03:40] Barry Levinson I mean no disrespect

[00:03:45] If you have to go to Baltimore

[00:03:47] And meet boys do not marry 'em

[00:03:49] Although it's true I hear that they've got quite a nice aquarium

[00:03:54] Ladies take your hearts

[00:03:55] And run as fast as little legs can carry 'em

[00:03:58] From Baltimore

[00:04:02] There are better boys in Boise

[00:04:05] Boys in Boise always call

[00:04:07] You'll have better luck in Josie

[00:04:09] Or St Paul well not St Paul

[00:04:11] But no matter where life takes you

[00:04:13] It just makes no sense to fall

[00:04:15] In Baltimore

[00:04:27] Hey where are you from

[00:04:28] Silver spring oh
