《Alice Is At It Again》歌词

[00:00:00] Alice Is At It Again - Noel Coward

[00:00:01] Written by：Noel Coward

[00:00:18] In a dear little village

[00:00:19] Remote and obscure

[00:00:21] A beautiful maiden resided

[00:00:23] As to whether or not

[00:00:24] Her intentions were pure

[00:00:26] Opinions were sharply divided

[00:00:29] She loved to lie

[00:00:30] Out 'neath the darkening sky

[00:00:32] And allow the night breeze

[00:00:33] To entrance her

[00:00:35] She whispered her dreams

[00:00:36] To the birds flying by

[00:00:39] But seldom received any answer

[00:00:44] Over the field and along the lane

[00:00:47] Gentle alice would love to stray

[00:00:50] When it came to the end of the day

[00:00:54] She would wander away

[00:00:56] Unheeding

[00:00:58] Dreaming her innocent dreams she strode

[00:01:00] Quite unaffected by heat or cold

[00:01:03] Frequently freckled or soaked with rain

[00:01:07] Alice was out in the lane

[00:01:11] Who she met there

[00:01:14] Every day

[00:01:16] Was a question

[00:01:17] Answered by none

[00:01:19] But she'd get there

[00:01:21] And she'd stay there

[00:01:22] 'Til whatever she did

[00:01:24] Was undoubtedly done

[00:01:26] Over the field and along the lane

[00:01:29] Both her parents would call in vain

[00:01:33] Sadly sorrowfully they'd complain

[00:01:37] 'Alice is at it again'

[00:01:46] Although that dear little village

[00:01:47] Surrounded by trees

[00:01:48] Had neither a school nor a college

[00:01:50] Gentle alice acquired

[00:01:51] From the birds and the bees

[00:01:53] Some exceedingly practical knowledge

[00:01:56] The curious secrets that nature revealed

[00:01:59] She refused to allow to upset her

[00:02:02] But she thought

[00:02:03] When observing the beasts of the field

[00:02:06] That things might have been organised better

[00:02:13] Over the field and along the lane

[00:02:16] Gentle alice would make up

[00:02:18] And take up

[00:02:19] Her stand

[00:02:21] The road was not exactly arterial

[00:02:24] But it led to a town nearby

[00:02:26] Where quite a lot of masculine material

[00:02:29] Caught her rolling eye

[00:02:30] She was ready to hitchhike

[00:02:32] Cadillac or motorbike

[00:02:33] She wasn't proud or choosy

[00:02:36] All she

[00:02:37] Was aiming to be

[00:02:38] Was a pinked-up

[00:02:38] Minked-up

[00:02:39] Fly-by-night floozy

[00:02:40] When old rogers

[00:02:41] Gave her pearls as large as

[00:02:43] Nuts on a chestnut tree

[00:02:45] All she'd say was

[00:02:46] 'Fiddle-di-dee

[00:02:47] The wages of sin will be the death of me

[00:02:50] Over the field and along the lane

[00:02:54] Gentle alice's parents

[00:02:55] Would wait

[00:02:56] Hand in hand

[00:03:00] Her dear old white-headed mother

[00:03:03] Wistfully sipping champagne

[00:03:07] Said 'we've spoiled our child

[00:03:09] Spared the rod

[00:03:10] Open up the caviar and say thank god

[00:03:12] We've got no cause to complain

[00:03:17] Alice is at it again
