[00:00.00] 作曲 : Costello Burnett
[00:00.337] 作词 : Costello Burnett
[00:01.11] Mistreat me darling and I might just disappear
[00:05.29]
[00:08.12] Upon freighter running dark out of Algiers
[00:12.20]
[00:14.85] Put tiny grains in children's tears
[00:19.91]
[00:21.89] While taking 25% of all the flashbulbs and mementoes
[00:28.52]
[00:29.03] From the mechanized divisions rolling over your frontiers
[00:35.20]
[00:35.73] I saw my baby talking to a man today
[00:40.42]
[00:43.39] Speaking softly in a confidential way
[00:47.83]
[00:49.59] I saw a shadow pull his glove off
[00:55.63]
[00:57.51] As a bluebird flew over
[01:00.60] Life's is no pleasure
[01:01.83]
[01:02.90] When you doubt the one you love
[01:05.21]
[01:08.36] Who are all these strangers
[01:12.40]
[01:14.98] I never will go back again
[01:19.62]
[01:21.69] Go back into the past
[01:23.50]
[01:24.86] The flood is rising fast
[01:27.05]
[01:30.43] You can break your window and look down
[01:33.78]
[01:37.01] Into a muddy glass
[01:39.27]
[01:40.29] For it's mirror or lens to burn
[01:44.40]
[01:47.70] There was a deal done in Benghazi and Belgrade
[01:53.22]
[01:55.48] Upon a scimitar or other crooked blade
[02:00.16]
[02:02.20] Ransacks and loots vacated suits
[02:07.54]
[02:10.47] And pistol points but never shoots
[02:14.06] Army sitting in a locomotive yard without their boots
[02:22.28]
[02:24.48] Upstairs your man is painting the rain out in the street
[02:29.38]
[02:31.98] Imagines woman that he's destined still to meet
[02:36.73]
[02:39.01] He's trying sidetrack one to count on
[02:44.91]
[02:46.75] Caught somewhere between countess or a courtesan
[02:52.38] And it's only love to feign and then it's gone
[02:56.67]
[02:57.77] Who are all these strangers
[03:02.57]
[03:06.37] He's a privateer as dusk gets near
[03:10.14]
[03:11.58] A brigand after dark his victim lined with chalk
[03:17.29]
[03:20.77] A corsair filled with horsehair to the core
[03:24.89]
[03:27.99] Dashed on your eyes of adamantine
[03:30.36]
[03:31.47] You despised his stripling whine
[03:34.57]
[03:38.63] That little smudger and the mouthpiece that he's with
[03:44.06]
[03:46.04] Using his clause just like a practised fingersmith
[03:51.10]
[03:53.58] I dreamed I took his digit prints
[03:59.02]
[04:01.14] And then I sewed them on a villain's hands
[04:04.99]
[04:05.86] Watched him ransom and demand
[04:08.26]
[04:09.47] Until called the flatfoots in
[04:13.12]
[04:16.30] I never will go back again
[04:20.76]
[04:22.58] Go back into the past
[04:24.49]
[04:26.31] The flood is rising fast
[04:28.83]
[04:32.19] You can break your window and look down
[04:35.72]
[04:38.95] Into a muddy glass
[04:41.15]
[04:42.26] For it's a mirror or lens to burn
[04:46.08]
[04:49.93] Who are all these strangers
[04:55.06]
[04:59.02] All these strangers
[05:04.17]
[05:07.24] Sat down on a narrow bed
[05:09.71]
[05:11.32] Thought about the things she said
[05:13.84]
[05:14.81] All these strangers
[05:20.23]
[05:22.97] How I wished the night would never end
[05:26.14]
[05:27.00] Tried to stop the days ahead
[05:29.80] I'd carve her name down in the wood
[05:33.20]
[05:34.25] Some small remembrance if I could
[05:40.47]
