《Congratulations(F(Live)inale)(2007 Digital Remaster)》歌词

[00:00:01] Dead in the water

[00:00:03] It's not a paid vacation

[00:00:05] The sons and daughters of city officials

[00:00:07] Attend demonstrations

[00:00:08] It's hardly a sink or swim

[00:00:10] When all is well if the ticket sells

[00:00:13] Out with a wimper

[00:00:15] It's not a blaze of glory

[00:00:17] You look down from your temple

[00:00:20] As people endeavor to make it a story

[00:00:22] And chisel a marble word

[00:00:24] But all is lost if it's never heard

[00:00:27] But I've got someone to make reports

[00:00:30] That tell me how my money's spent

[00:00:32] To book my stays and draw my blinds

[00:00:35] So I can't tell what's really there

[00:00:37] And all I need's a great big congratulations

[00:00:40] I'll keep your dreams

[00:00:41] You pay attention for me

[00:00:43] As strange as it seems

[00:00:45] I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me

[00:00:47] The ground may be moving fast

[00:00:49] But I tied my boots to a broken mast

[00:00:52] The difference is clear

[00:00:54] You throw it in your cauldron

[00:00:56] Rust and veneer, dusk and dawn

[00:00:58] Steinways and Baldwins

[00:00:59] You start with a simple stock of all the waste

[00:01:03] And salt to taste

[00:01:05] But damn my luck and damn these friends

[00:01:09] That keep on combing back their smiles

[00:01:12] I save my grace with half-assed guilt

[00:01:15] And lay down the quilt upon the lawn

[00:01:20] Spread my arms and soak up congratulations
