《Earthly Pleasure》歌词

[00:00:00] Earthly Pleasure - Villagers

[00:00:13] Naked on the toilet with a toothbrush in his mouth

[00:00:16] When he suddenly acquired an overwhelming sense of doubt

[00:00:20] Every single piece of baggage he'd been holding on his back

[00:00:24] Was beginning to dig dig dig in and his back began began to crack

[00:00:28] And when he finally broke up he found that he'd been breaking down

[00:00:32] Little body little soul little shrapnel on the ground

[00:00:36] So he started to examine from the clumsy to the cute

[00:00:40] From the fat fat cat to the destitute

[00:00:44] From the chat fat cat to the mute

[00:00:47] Oh earthly pleasure ring out

[00:00:52] From the rigors of this road

[00:00:55] Earthly pleasure ring out

[00:00:59] From the caverns of my soul

[00:01:04] Then suddenly he found themselves in 1822

[00:01:08] And he was in another body in a heavy sort of suit

[00:01:12] He was surrounded but he'd started making plans to make a run

[00:01:16] When they called to him son cock your gun

[00:01:20] And so he did as all the others had already done

[00:01:24] He put his finger on the trigger and he gave 'em some

[00:01:28] And though he don't like to admit it it was sensual and pure

[00:01:32] And he changed that day though he can't be sure

[00:01:36] If it's the sickness or the cure

[00:01:40] Oh earthly pleasure ring out

[00:01:43] From the rigors of this road

[00:01:47] Earthly pleasure ring out

[00:01:51] From the caverns of my soul

[00:01:56] So there he was in front of her divine simplicity

[00:02:00] And she was speaking Esperanto and drinking ginger tea

[00:02:04] As she inquired about the reason for his visit here today

[00:02:08] Well he just said no reason and I really shouldn't stay

[00:02:12] And so he thought that she would think that he was some kind of freak

[00:02:16] And that he'd go back to the grind and that he wouldn't last a week

[00:02:20] But she didn't she just sighed and added softly with a smile

[00:02:24] Sit down dear child what's on your mind

[00:02:28] And so he frantically described to her the kingdom at her feet

[00:02:32] As she continued with her manicure and poured another tea

[00:02:36] As he recounted tales of misery and suffering and pain

[00:02:40] She was yawning at the ceiling so we had to up his game

[00:02:44] The only thing your children cherish is to move up the ranks

[00:02:47] Lucifer is in our courts Beelzebub is in our banks

[00:02:52] And if you don't cooperate with us we'll hang you 'til you're dead

[00:02:56] So she granted him a wish and let him write it on her head

[00:03:00] And when he read it back to her this is all it said

[00:03:03] Earthly pleasure ring out

[00:03:08] From the rigors of this road

[00:03:11] Earthly pleasure ring out

[00:03:15] From the caverns of my soul

[00:03:19] Now I truly understand

[00:03:23] But I don't understand a thing

[00:03:27] So let this earthly pleasure sing

[00:03:35] Earthly pleasure
