《A Poem on the Underground Wall》歌词

[00:00:02] A Poem on the Underground Wall (Album Version) - Simon & Garfunkel

[00:00:13] The last train is nearly due

[00:00:15] The underground is closing soon

[00:00:17] And in the dark deserted station

[00:00:19] Restless in anticipation

[00:00:21] A man waits in the shadows

[00:00:27] His restless eyes leap and scratch

[00:00:29] At all that they can touch or catch

[00:00:31] And hidden deep within his pocket

[00:00:34] Safe within it's silent socket

[00:00:36] He holds a colored crayon

[00:00:42] Now from the tunnel's stony womb

[00:00:44] The carriage rides to meet the groom

[00:00:46] And opens wide and welcome doors

[00:00:48] But he hesitates then withdraws

[00:00:51] Deeper in the shadows

[00:00:58] And the train is gone suddenly

[00:01:02] On wheels clicking silently

[00:01:06] Like a gently tapping litany

[00:01:09] And he holds his crayon rosary

[00:01:12] Tighter in his hand

[00:01:17] Now from his pocket quick he flashes

[00:01:20] The crayon on the wall he slashes

[00:01:22] Deep upon the advertising

[00:01:24] A single worded poem comprised

[00:01:26] Of four letters

[00:01:30] And his heart is laughing screaming pounding

[00:01:32] The poem across the tracks rebounding

[00:01:34] Shadowed by the exit light

[00:01:36] His legs take their ascending flight

[00:01:38] To seek the breast of darkness and be suckled by the night
