Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Reid, Reid
[00:13.27] I've been so sad
[00:15.47] Since you said my accent was bad
[00:18.72] He's wearing a frown
[00:21.08] This caledonian clown
[00:24.00] I'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
[00:26.84] To make sure my words
[00:28.32] On your saxon ears don't grate
[00:29.74] But I wouldn't know a single word to say
[00:32.83] If I flattened all the vowels
[00:34.06] And threw the r away
[00:35.91] Some days I stand
[00:38.25] On your green and pleasant land
[00:41.15] How dare I show face
[00:43.85] When my diction is such a disgrace
[00:46.89] I'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
[00:49.64] To make sure my words
[00:52.57] On your saxon ears don't grate
[00:52.52] But I wouldn't know a single word to say
[00:55.23] If I flattened all the vowels
[00:56.89] And threw the r away
[00:59.04] You say that if I want to get ahead
[01:01.86] The language I use should be left for dead
[01:04.69] It doesn't please your ear
[01:08.49] And though you tell it like a leg pull
[01:13.26] It seems you're still full of John Bull
[01:16.11] You just refuse to hear
[01:21.70] Oh what can I do
[01:24.19] To be understood by you
[01:27.37] Perhaps for some money
[01:29.48] I could talk like a bee dripping honey
[01:31.92] I'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
[01:35.64] To make sure my words
[01:37.07] On your Saxon ears don't grate
[01:38.37] But I wouldn't know a single word to say
[01:41.15] If I flattened all the vowels
[01:42.77] And threw the r away
[01:44.65] You say that if I want to get ahead
[01:47.72] The language I use should be left for dead
[01:50.49] It doesn't please your ear
[01:56.31] And though you tell it like a leg pull
[01:59.06] I think you're still full of John Bull
[02:01.88] You just refuse to hear
[02:07.61] He's been so sad
[02:10.08] Since you said his accent was bad
[02:13.18] He's wearing a frown
[02:15.65] This caledonian clown
[02:18.50] I'm just going to have to learn to hesitate
[02:21.24] To make sure my words
[02:22.63] On your saxon ears don't grate
[02:23.99] But I wouldn't know a single word to say
[02:26.74] If I flattened all the vowels
[02:28.25] And threw the r away
[02:29.76] Flattened all the vowels
[02:30.98] And threw the r away
[02:32.53] If I flattened all the vowels
[02:33.83] And threw the r away
[02:39.07]
