Song | Choose Me for Champion |
Artist | Rasputina |
Album | Oh Perilous World |
作曲 : Creager | |
Choose me to be your champion, | |
I am possessing of a very righteous style | |
I understand what's happening | |
I have charisma and, of course, a winning smile | |
I stand accused of being an audacious redeemer | |
Not a charge I can deny | |
I have refused the way of the liar and the schemer | |
And I'm not afraid to die | |
Oh hark back to the mighty shipwreck | |
How ancestors of islanders are we | |
How the ship sank like a sinking thinktank | |
Our memories are gone and sunk at sea | |
We have allowed ourselves to be insulted by invaders | |
For the longest of years | |
I will employ all of my cunning and my patience | |
Then we shall persevere | |
I find I can get behind heretical ideas and make them real | |
You do what you want to do | |
I cannot tell you how to feel | |
But if the grievous deeds of the Floridian forces have not opened up your eyes | |
I will get down on my knees and the Pitcairnan Women's Chorus | |
Will shout up to the skies | |
Spoken: There's only 24 of us here on this island in the sea | |
And we know Queen Mary Todd has sent her army | |
And I can be the hero that you need me to be | |
Oh my visionary people, you don't need powerful binoculars to see | |
That we're descendants of the Bounty Mutineers | |
And I can liquidate your fears | |
And Pitcairn Island will be free | |
(Free in the air) | |
You don't want those blimps coming here | |
(Free in the sea) | |
A colonial offshoot - is that what you want us to be? | |
(Freedom is fine) | |
The responsibility of saving all our lives on Pitcairn Island should be mine! | |
Spoken: Consider Thursday October Christian. | |
He's a great rebel and I am exaggerating only very slightly. | |
He wore no clothes but a piece of cloth about his loins. | |
Heroism is no more than a chapter in a tale of submission. | |
"The walls of opression and humiliation cannot be demolished | |
Except in a rain of boomerangs," Christian said Monday | |
In response to Tuesday's balloon massacres. |
