《I Was A Lover》歌词

[00:00:01] I Was A Lover - TV on The Radio

[00:00:03] Written by：David Sitek/Kyp Malone/TV on the Radio

[00:00:19] I was a lover before this war

[00:00:25] Held up in a luxury suite

[00:00:28] Behind a barricaded door

[00:00:31] Now that I've cleaned up gone legit

[00:00:37] I can see clearly round hole

[00:00:41] Round whole square peg don't fit

[00:01:21] I'm locked in my bedroom

[00:01:23] So send back the clowns

[00:01:27] My clone wears a brown shirt

[00:01:30] And I seduce him

[00:01:31] When there's no one around

[00:01:33] Mano you mano on a bed of nails

[00:01:39] Bring it on like a storm

[00:01:42] Till I knock the wind out of his sails

[00:01:46] And we don't make eye contact

[00:01:49] When we have run ins in town

[00:01:51] Just a barely polite nod

[00:01:55] And nervous stares towards the ground

[00:01:58] I once joined a priest class plastic inert

[00:02:04] In a slowdance with commerce

[00:02:07] Like a lens up a skirt

[00:02:10] And we liked to party

[00:02:13] And we kept it live

[00:02:17] And we had a three volume tome

[00:02:18] Of contemporary slang

[00:02:20] To keep a handle on all this jive

[00:02:30] Ennui unbridled

[00:02:33] Let's talk to kill the time

[00:02:36] How many styles did you cycle

[00:02:39] Through before you were mine

[00:02:42] And it's been a while since

[00:02:44] We went wild and that's all fine

[00:02:48] But we're sleepwalking through this trial

[00:02:51] And it's really a crime

[00:02:53] It's really a crime it's really a crime

[00:03:00] It's really criminal

[00:03:13] We're just busy tempting

[00:03:15] Like fate's on the nod

[00:03:19] Running on empty bourbon and god

[00:03:25] It's been a while since we knew the way

[00:03:32] And it's been even longer

[00:03:35] Since our plastic priest class

[00:03:36] Had a goddamned thing to say

[00:03:44] I was a lover before this war

[00:03:50] I was a lover before this war

[00:03:56] I was a lover before this war
