《The Worm in the Apple》歌词

[00:00:00] The Worm in the Apple - Ezra Furman And The Harpoons

[00:00:16] I'm gonna sit on a big fluffy cloud

[00:00:19] Looking down at the tops

[00:00:21] Of the heads of the crowds

[00:00:23] Moving round and around

[00:00:24] The dark center of town

[00:00:26] With their eyes all

[00:00:27] Searching for something

[00:00:29] That can't be found

[00:00:30] I'm gonna laugh

[00:00:31] At the top of my lungs til

[00:00:33] I can't quite remember

[00:00:34] Just what the joke was

[00:00:36] But the laughter will fill up

[00:00:38] My body with love

[00:00:40] Which is always what I've been told

[00:00:42] I'm supposed to want

[00:00:44] And I'm gonna fly

[00:00:47] On a plane to the sky

[00:00:50] Which my mind

[00:00:52] Will devise using science

[00:00:56] That's being forgotten

[00:00:58] Cause I'm getting

[00:01:00] Bored of the town of New York

[00:01:04] How the world's been transformed

[00:01:08] Into a big apple

[00:01:10] And it's gotten so rotten

[00:01:15] Oh

[00:01:28] While all the world

[00:01:29] Makes money so stoically

[00:01:31] I will be building my home out of poetry

[00:01:34] Scraps of old volumes wire and glue

[00:01:37] Will be something

[00:01:38] Though feeble it's all I can do

[00:01:41] In the back of the room

[00:01:43] My fingers will shake

[00:01:44] With the fury of someone

[00:01:46] With something to make

[00:01:48] That will take him

[00:01:49] So far far away from this place

[00:01:51] That he'll never look back at

[00:01:53] All the worms and the snakes

[00:01:55] And they'll lick at my heals

[00:01:58] But they aren't even real

[00:02:01] I will twirl and wheel through

[00:02:05] The skyway high over the steeple

[00:02:08] And I'll take you with me

[00:02:12] And we'll grow old and lovely

[00:02:15] We'll eat fine apples from

[00:02:18] The tree of knowledge of good and evil

[00:02:28] You won't know about that

[00:02:39] Burning with all the things I must do

[00:02:41] To get free of the wasteland

[00:02:44] Of wire and glue

[00:02:45] I am wandering from cage

[00:02:47] To cage at the bronx zoo

[00:02:49] And I'm renaming all of the animals

[00:02:52] I can't just wait

[00:02:54] On my knees in the chapel

[00:02:56] To be bitten into

[00:02:57] Like a worm in the apple

[00:02:59] I'm digging for freedom

[00:03:01] Guitar for a shovel

[00:03:02] I'm dirty my fingertips hurt me

[00:03:06] The kids of atlantis magazines

[00:03:11] Beneath the mattress

[00:03:12] With their names in the atlas of

[00:03:17] Heartbreak are calling my name

[00:03:19] And I'm feeling baffled

[00:03:22] The worm in the apple

[00:03:26] But the cold water tap

[00:03:29] Will rain down upon me

[00:03:32] And nothing will be the same

[00:03:38] It's all gonna be different now

[00:03:43] I hope
