Song | (I Want to Build A) Jumbo Ark |
Artist | Nick Lowe |
Album | Party of One |
作词 : Lowe | |
I want to build a jumbo ark | |
A stretch 747 | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven | |
Mr. Boeing can you hear me now? | |
Way up there in Seattle | |
You better sit your big self down | |
‘Cause I’m about to make your phone line rattle | |
Get busy with your peppy team | |
And your compass and protractor | |
‘Cause I’m sent here to contract ya | |
To construct this winged thing | |
I want to build a jumbo ark | |
A stretch 747 | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven | |
We’re talking ‘bout an aquaplane | |
With its floats made out of liners | |
And a hold like Carolina | |
For the load it must contain | |
Don’t tell me that it can’t be done | |
‘Cause we’re living in the eighties | |
Boy we will not me mateys | |
Unless we do this winged thing | |
I want to build a jumbo ark | |
A stretch 747 | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven | |
Information I have received | |
From let’s say higher sources | |
That leads me to believe | |
That heavy weather is around the bend | |
The clouds are gonna bump and grind | |
And down will rain destruction | |
But with the aid of our construction | |
We’ll survive and thrive again | |
I want to build a jumbo ark | |
A stretch 747 | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven | |
I want to take the ape and the kangaroo | |
From out the wild and out of the zoo | |
I’m gonna have to take extra cattle and swine | |
‘Cause the beasts on each other do love to dine | |
Every fish, fowl, thing that howl | |
Will all be kicking up a hell of a row | |
When I build a jumbo ark | |
A stretch 747 | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place | |
I want to build a jumbo ark | |
A stretch 747 | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven | |
And with the grace of God | |
I will win my place in heaven |
