[00:01.000] 作曲 : Yusuf / Cat Stevens
[00:20.229] I was born in the West-End
[00:23.413] In the summer of ’48
[00:26.885] Above a small Cafe
[00:29.817] Some people liked to come there and call it night
[00:32.483] But for me it was all day
[00:35.958] Oh! Now the dogs keep a-growlin’
[00:43.413] Round my front door
[00:48.761] And the Truth howled out from the editing floor
[00:56.215]
[00:58.338] Years went by
[01:01.278] Quarrymen came along
[01:04.209] This boy became a star
[01:07.913] Then he dropped – but got up again
[01:10.306] With a Black Everly guitar
[01:13.516] Then he searched along the road
[01:16.439] A good song he was looking for
[01:26.022] And the Truth sang out from the editing floor
[01:33.541]
[01:48.448] Big brother took a trip
[01:51.668] As bold as he could be
[01:54.627] To the place, he heard,
[01:57.831] Where the good Prophets used to walk
[02:00.765] High above this dark world
[02:03.701] Then the Word came down
[02:09.279] And the little brother saw
[02:16.489] How the Truth was buried on the editing floor
[02:23.171]
[02:35.431] One day the papers rang us up,
[02:38.616] T’check if I said this?
[02:41.796] I said, “Oh boy!
[02:44.745] I’d never say that!”
[02:47.658] Then we got down to the truth of it
[02:50.584] But they never printed that!
[02:54.036] Just like Socrates, the man from Greece
[03:08.966] Fell down on his knees
[03:15.104] Said, Lord! Forgive them please
[03:20.432] Forgive them please
[03:24.428] And he spoke no more
[03:32.680] And the cup spilled out on the editing floor
