《Whoops》歌词

[00:00:00] Whoops (哎呦) - Blues Traveler

[00:00:14] Have you ever seen an atom

[00:00:19] Little bits of everything floating by

[00:00:27] Take a good look at them

[00:00:30] Collectively they compose

[00:00:32] All you see including your eye

[00:00:42] Brilliant puzzle a living Rubik's Cube

[00:00:47] We think we can figure out and solve

[00:00:55] But we're just monkeys scratching our heads

[00:01:00] Trying to open our ears

[00:01:03] To a chord that just don't seem to resolve

[00:01:09] And we call it wisdom

[00:01:12] Yes intellect in our truest sense of the word

[00:01:17] You see for us security means a harmony

[00:01:21] According to only what we have heard

[00:01:24] And this along and nothing less

[00:01:28] Will ease our heart and our mind

[00:01:31] In the hopes that in feeling free

[00:01:33] We'll reach paradise

[00:01:35] On that hilltop we're still trying to find

[00:01:39] But the possibility exists no matter

[00:01:43] How scary it may seem

[00:01:46] That paradise was once the world

[00:01:49] And it wasn't just a dream

[00:01:52] The earth was our heaven and we didn't know

[00:01:56] There were rules for us to break

[00:02:00] And maybe now we'll find out too late

[00:02:03] What a clever hell we can make

[00:02:07] Whoops whoops whoops whoops

[00:03:09] In this corner weighing in at almost

[00:03:14] Every weight imaginable

[00:03:16] Life and all that surrounds it

[00:03:22] And in this corner

[00:03:26] Weighing in at well

[00:03:27] Not really very much of anything

[00:03:28] A very sound and user friendly idea

[00:03:31] On finally bringing

[00:03:32] That pesky mountain to Mohammed

[00:03:37] Gentlemen at the sound of the harmonica solo

[00:04:54] Take a look at the horizon quiet and still

[00:05:08] You know there used to be Bison

[00:05:13] Gentlemen you may fire at will

[00:05:23] They say this land won't go to waste

[00:05:29] But you gotta wonder how

[00:05:36] You know we're chopping down the air we breathe

[00:05:43] As fodder for the cow

[00:05:50] That's right so we can eat well

[00:05:52] Yes and starve to death

[00:05:54] And say there's nothing we can do

[00:05:58] Because we really

[00:05:59] Don't want to do a goddamn thing

[00:06:01] Look I'm shrugging and so are you

[00:06:05] Oh we can imagine the straightest of lines

[00:06:08] But our fingers can't control the pen

[00:06:12] And it's this frustration that yields relief

[00:06:15] As we say we're just mortal men

[00:06:19] And that means we get to torture a chimpanzee

[00:06:23] And infect him with disease

[00:06:26] Because he screams just like a human child

[00:06:29] While we study his desperate pleas

[00:06:33] But the possibility exists no matter

[00:06:37] How scary it may seem

[00:06:40] That paradise was once the world

[00:06:43] And it wasn't just a dream

[00:06:47] The earth was our heaven and we didn't know

[00:06:50] There were rules for us to break

[00:06:54] And maybe now we'll find out too late

[00:06:57] What a clever hell we can make

[00:07:01] Whoops whoops whoops whoops

[00:07:08] While we're on the subject you know

[00:07:09] My conscience hurts and it will not go away

[00:07:15] So please concoct me some pill I can take

[00:07:18] While I think of something clever to say

[00:07:22] So I can look in my mirror made of polished glass

[00:07:25] And find no need to cringe

[00:07:29] And forget that sinking feeling I'm a dinosaur

[00:07:32] Out on his drunken last binge

[00:07:38] From fossil to fossil dust to dust

[00:07:43] I'll see you all in the earthy crust

[00:07:47] Whoops whoops whoops whoops
