Song | Books Are Burning (2001 Digital Remaster) |
Artist | XTC |
Album | Nonsuch |
[00:00.000] | 作曲 : Andrew Partridge |
[00:00.744] | Books are burning |
[00:03.618] | In the main square, and I saw there |
[00:10.854] | The fire eating the text |
[00:15.112] | Books are burning |
[00:19.553] | In the still air |
[00:22.504] | And you know where they burn books |
[00:29.061] | People are next |
[00:33.659] | I believe the printed word should be forgiven |
[00:40.633] | Doesn't matter what it said |
[00:48.287] | Wisdom hotline from the dead back to the living |
[00:55.366] | Key to the larder for your heart and head |
[01:06.834] | Books are burning |
[01:10.361] | In our own town, |
[01:14.227] | watch us turn 'round |
[01:17.675] | And cast our glances elsewhere |
[01:21.489] | Books are burning |
[01:25.042] | In the playground |
[01:28.855] | Smell of burnt book is not unlike human hair |
[01:40.114] | I believe the printed word is more than sacred |
[01:47.428] | Beyond the gauge of good or bad |
[01:54.612] | The human right to let your soul fly free and naked |
[02:01.926] | Above the violence of the fearful and sad |
[02:15.510] | The church of matches |
[02:22.433] | Anoints in ignorance with gasoline |
[02:29.877] | The church of matches |
[02:37.505] | Grows fat by breathing in the smoke of dreams |
[02:45.917] | It's quite obscene |
[02:48.660] | Books are burning |
[02:52.003] | More each day now, |
[02:55.765] | and I pray now |
[02:58.952] | You boys will tire of these games |
[03:03.131] | Books are burning |
[03:06.841] | I hope somehow, |
[03:12.013] | this will allow |
[03:13.946] | A phoenix up from the flames |
