Lyrics

[ti:This is not a song,]
[ar:Sixto Rodriguez]
[al:Cold Fact]
[00:00.00] 作曲 : Sixto Rodriguez
[00:01.00] 作词 : Sixto Rodriguez
[00:09.73] The mayor hides the crime rate
[00:11.82] council woman hesitates
[00:13.98] Public gets irate but forget the vote date
[00:17.98] Weatherman complaining, predicted sun, it's raining
[00:21.96] Everyone's protesting, boyfriend keeps suggesting
[00:25.81] you're not like all of the rest.
[00:29.69] Garbage ain't collected, women ain't protected
[00:33.90] Politicians using people, they've been abusing
[00:37.48] The mafia's getting bigger, like pollution in the river
[00:41.32] And you tell me that this is where it's at.
[00:45.58] Woke up this moming with an ache in my head
[00:49.78] Splashed on my clothes as I spilled out of bed
[00:53.24] Opened the window to listen to the news
[00:57.13] But all I heard was the Establishment's Blues.
[01:03.15] Gun sales are soaring, housewives find life boring
[01:07.08] Divorce the only answer smoking causes cancer
[01:11.02] This system's gonna fall soon, to an angry young tune
[01:14.92] And that's a concrete cold fact.
[01:18.87] The pope digs population, freedom from taxation
[01:23.12] Teeny Bops are up tight, drinking at a stoplight
[01:26.94] Miniskirt is flirting I can't stop so I'm hurting
[01:30.98] Spinster sells her hopeless chest.
[01:35.08] Adultery plays the kitchen, bigot cops non-fiction
[01:38.92] The little man gets shafted, sons and monies drafted
[01:42.90] Living by a time piece, new war in the far east.
[01:46.74] Can you pass the Rorschach test?
[01:50.83] It's a hassle is an educated guess.
[01:55.03] Well, frankly I couldn't care less.
