Thin Captain Crackers
作詞:Glenn Anthony Richards
Here on the hill above the settlement The buildings are talking A tower to a terrace says the word's on the street The dead are walking
The brows are arched of the mews across the street By a pale ocher light are made out heavy reliefs Where all your dreams are borrowed All your senses are thieves And Ned Kelly won't ride past your window Despite the freeze on your disbelief
Don't bring 'em up if you can't put 'em down Thin Captain Crackers bowling naked Through the center of the town The sun won't bake his blue skin brown He's been too long underground
I see, said a blind builder to his deaf daughter As he picked up his hammer and saw If blood is thicker than water Why'd you dress in the dress that you wore?
The blind are drawn by a blank curiosity Don't bring 'em up if you can't put 'em down Drawn on mirrors where windows used to be Don't bring 'em up if you can't put 'em down
Some people might say My desire's not the captain of me And Red Barry might fly from his pedestal 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 At night to spook the university
Don't bring 'em up if you can't put 'em down Thin Captain Crackers bowling naked Through the center of the town The sun won't bake his blue skin brown He's been too long underground
Oh, tailor my bones what need new clothes But the lower half loves what the upper half loathes I could get around like an intellectual I suppose Wearing the highs with the lows
But I'd sooner sing these doleful drones By barcoo dog and lager phones My hand don't write when a feather it holds It hangs like a wren with its neck wrung
Did the bells in my quasi commode Where I have to shift my head To see where my pillow go'd? Some mornings I wake up by the side of the road Bringing it up for the gutter After putting it down for the crowd
I said I would arrive in the capital Don't bring â€~em up if you can't put â€~em down After chucking outside The St. Augustine's purple parish hall Don't bring â€~em up if you can't put â€~em down And you know I can't
