《Antichrist Television Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Antichrist Television Blues - Arcade Fire (拱廊之火)

[00:00:15] Don't want to work in a building downtown

[00:00:18] No I don't want to work in a building downtown

[00:00:21] I don't know what I'm going to do

[00:00:24] Because the planes keep crashing always two by two

[00:00:27] Don't want to work in a building downtown

[00:00:30] No I don't want to see it when the planes hit the ground

[00:00:36] Don't want to work in a building downtown

[00:00:39] Don't want to work in a building downtown

[00:00:42] Parking the cars in the underground

[00:00:45] The voices when they scream well they make no sound

[00:00:49] Want to see the cities rust

[00:00:51] And the troublemakers riding on the back of the bus

[00:00:55] Dear God I'm a good Christian man

[00:00:57] I'm your boy I know you understand

[00:01:00] That you got to work hard and you got to get paid

[00:01:03] The girl's thirteen but she don't act her age

[00:01:07] She can sing like a bird in cage

[00:01:09] Oh Lord if you could see her when she's up on that stage

[00:01:13] You know that I'm a God-fearing man

[00:01:16] You know that I'm a God-fearing man

[00:01:18] I just got to know if it's part of your plan

[00:01:20] To see my darling stand by your right hand

[00:01:25] I know that you'll do what's right Lord

[00:01:28] For they are the lanterns and you are the light

[00:01:37] Now I'm overcome

[00:01:40] By the light of day

[00:01:50] My lips are near

[00:01:51] But my heart is far away

[00:01:56] Tell me what to say

[00:02:01] I'll be your mouthpiece

[00:02:02] Into the light of a bridge that burns

[00:02:06] As I drive through the city with the money that I earn

[00:02:10] To the dark of a starless sky

[00:02:12] I won't stare into nothing and I'm asking you why

[00:02:16] Lord let me make her a star

[00:02:19] So the world can see who you really are

[00:02:23] Little girl you're old enough to understand

[00:02:25] You'll always be a stranger in a strange strange land

[00:02:28] Men are going to come while you're fast asleep

[00:02:30] So you better just stay close and hold onto me

[00:02:34] If mama's mockingbird don't sing well

[00:02:36] Then daddy won't buy her no diamond ring

[00:02:41] Dear God would you send me a child

[00:02:43] Oh God would you send me a child

[00:02:46] Because I want to put it up on the TV screen

[00:02:49] So the world can see what your true word means

[00:02:52] Lord won't you send me a sign

[00:02:55] Because I just got to know if I'm wasting my time

[00:03:05] Now I'm overcome

[00:03:11] By the light of day

[00:03:17] My lips are near

[00:03:19] But my heart is far away

[00:03:23] But now the war is won

[00:03:28] How come nothing tastes good

[00:03:51] Oh you're such a sensitive child

[00:03:54] You know you're such a sensitive child

[00:03:56] I know you're tired but it's all right

[00:03:59] I just needed you to sing for me tonight

[00:04:01] You're going to have your day in the sun

[00:04:05] You know God loves the sensitive ones

[00:04:09] Oh my little bird in a cage

[00:04:12] Oh my little bird in a cage

[00:04:14] I need you to get up for me up on that stage

[00:04:17] Show all the men that you're old for your age

[00:04:21] Now in the times of fear

[00:04:23] But if you don't take it it'll disappear

[00:04:25] Oh my little mockingbird sing

[00:04:29] Oh my little mockingbird sing

[00:04:32] I need you to get up on the stage for me honey

[00:04:35] Show the men it's not about the money

[00:04:38] Want to hold a mirror up to the world

[00:04:41] So that they can see themselves inside my little girl

[00:04:44] Do you know where I was at your age

[00:04:47] Any idea where I was at your age

[00:04:50] I was working downtown for the minimum wage

[00:04:53] And I couldn't let you just throw it all away

[00:04:56] Throw me a kid God throw me a knife

[00:04:59] So tell me Lord am I the Antichrist
