《I Knew Prufrock Before He Got Famous》歌词

[00:00:00] I Knew Prufrock Before He Got Famous - Frank Turner (法兰克·透纳)

[00:00:00] Written by：Frank Turner

[00:00:00] Let's begin at the beginning

[00:00:02] We're lovers and we're losers

[00:00:05] We're heroes and we're pioneers

[00:00:07] And we're beggars and we're choosers

[00:00:09] We're skirting around the edges

[00:00:11] Of the ideal demographic

[00:00:14] We're almost on the guestlist

[00:00:16] But we're always stuck in traffic

[00:00:19] We've watched our close associates

[00:00:21] Up and play their parts

[00:00:23] Chatting up the it girls

[00:00:25] And they're tearing up the charts

[00:00:27] While we were paying with coppers

[00:00:29] To get our rounds in at the bar

[00:00:32] We're the C Team we're the almost famous

[00:00:35] Old friends of the stars

[00:00:55] Justin is the last

[00:00:58] Of the great romantic poets

[00:01:00] And he's the only one among us

[00:01:02] Who is ever gonna make it

[00:01:04] We planned a revolution

[00:01:06] From a cheap Southampton bistro

[00:01:09] I don't remember details

[00:01:11] But there were English boys with banjos

[00:01:13] Jay is our St George and he's standing on a wooden chair

[00:01:17] And he sings songs and he slays dragons

[00:01:20] And he's losing all his hair

[00:01:23] And Adam is the resurrected spirit of Gram Parsons

[00:01:27] In plaid instead of rhinestone and living in South London

[00:01:32] And no one's really clear about Tommy's job description

[00:01:36] But it's pretty clear he's vital to the whole damn operation

[00:01:41] And Dave Danger smiles at strangers

[00:01:43] Tre's the safest girl I know

[00:01:46] Zo and Harps will scamper up to victory in the city we call home

[00:01:53] We won't change our ways we will proud remain when the glory fades

[00:02:06] When the glory fades

[00:02:08] Yeah I am sick and tired of people

[00:02:11] Who are living on the B list

[00:02:13] Yeah they're waiting to be famous

[00:02:15] And they're wondering why they do this

[00:02:18] And I know I'm not the one who is habitually optimistic

[00:02:22] But I'm the one who's got the microphone here so just remember this

[00:02:26] Yeah well life is about love last minutes and lost evenings

[00:02:31] About fire in our bellies and furtive little feelings

[00:02:36] And the aching amplitudes that set our needles all a flickering

[00:02:40] And help us with remembering that the only thing that's left to do is live

[00:02:52] Yeah the only thing that's left to do is live

[00:02:56] After all the loving and the losing

[00:02:59] For the heroes and the pioneers

[00:03:01] The only thing that's left to do

[00:03:04] Is get another round in at the bar
