《East Indian Princess(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] East Indian Princess - Loudon Wainwright III

[00:00:01] East Indian princess lives in a western dream

[00:00:10] Happy like a child, her mother is a queen

[00:00:17] You know she's safe as a cow on a Calcutta street

[00:00:26] This English way of life has got that other life beat

[00:00:35] And reading magazines, she sits in straight backed chairs

[00:00:43] She's got a common welfare, she's got a queen that cares

[00:00:52] She's got meat on her bones, she doesn't starve at least

[00:01:01] Not like the folks back home, not like the folks back east

[00:01:18] But Yeah, this Indian is English no matter how she tries

[00:01:27] You know the sari and the sandals, it's just a bad disguise

[00:01:35] She got a mark on her forehead, she got a stud in her nose

[00:01:44] Yeah, but this Indian is English and I'm afraid it shows

[00:01:52] 'Cause you can see her at Wimpey's and on a movie queue line

[00:02:01] Her river's not the Ganges, it is the serpentine

[00:02:10] She got the western princess, she got the western pain

[00:02:18] She got the western mind, that girl has gone insane
