《Down In The Street Below》歌词

[00:00:00] Down In The Street Below - The Divine Comedy

[00:00:07] Press the doorbell and push the door

[00:00:12] Climb the darkened stairwell to the second floor

[00:00:19] She'll be waiting for you in her dressing-gown

[00:00:24] With the drink she poured you

[00:00:27] When she heard the sound

[00:00:31] Watch the film eat the food she cooked

[00:00:37] Talk of how the film ain't

[00:00:39] Half as good as the book

[00:00:43] Kiss her sleepy eyes closed and say "it's time"

[00:00:48] To slip beneath the shadows

[00:00:51] Of the bedroom blinds

[00:00:53] Well it's always a pleasure and never a chore

[00:00:59] But you just don't know

[00:01:02] Whether you're doing it for the right reasons

[00:01:10] It's cold for the season

[00:01:16] Down in the street below

[00:01:25] Men and women go about their business

[00:01:28] Picking up the last few things for Christmas

[00:01:32] Trying not to step upon the pigeons

[00:01:36] Praying to the gods of their religions

[00:01:39] That they might be spared a little longer

[00:01:43] That they might become a little stronger

[00:01:47] Down in the street below

[00:01:55] Everybody's on a secret mission

[00:01:59] Everybody's got their own ambitions

[00:02:02] They would tell you

[00:02:04] If they thought you'd listen

[00:02:06] They would say how

[00:02:07] Lately they've been wishing

[00:02:10] For the chance to meet a handsome stranger

[00:02:13] Lead a life of elegance and danger

[00:02:17] Down in the street below

[00:02:25] Down in the street below

[00:02:34] Way up high in a phallic tower

[00:02:40] You're swimming in a tiny galaxy of stars

[00:02:46] Knocking back mojitos at the cocktail bar

[00:02:52] Talking 'bout burritos and conceptual art

[00:02:58] Your armchair's round and your glass is square

[00:03:04] The clientele's straight out

[00:03:06] Of this month's Vanity Fair

[00:03:10] Well look around the place

[00:03:12] Something's not quite right

[00:03:16] Yours is the only face that you don't recognize

[00:03:21] Well it's always a pleasure and never a chore

[00:03:27] But you just don't know

[00:03:29] Whether you're doing it for the right reasons

[00:03:38] It's cold for the season down in the street below

[00:03:55] Down in the street below

[00:04:11] Well it's always a pleasure and never a chore

[00:04:16] But you just don't know

[00:04:17] Whether you're doing it for the right reasons

[00:04:26] It's cold for the season down in the street below
