Grace/Wastelands

Pete Doherty Grace/Wastelands歌詞
1.Arcadie

1,2,1,2,3,4

In Arcadie, your life trips along
It's pure and simple as the shepherd's song
Seraphic pipes along the way in Arcady
In Arcady, In Arcady

Never saw I such a scene
Such maids upon such a molten green
They employ their holiday with dance and game
And things I may never name
In Arcady, In Arcady

You said he was your teacher
Taught you true and wise
But now you know more than your teacher
I see nothing but cool self-regard in your eyes
In Arcady

So you see how twisted it becomes
See how quickly twisted it becomes
When the cat gut binds my ankles to your bedstead
That ain't love, no that ain't love

Said he was your teacher
Taught you true and wise
Now you know more than your teacher
I see nothing but cool self-regard in your eyes
In Arcady, In Arcady

In Arcady (In Arcady)
In Arcady your life trips along
Pure and simple as the shepherd's song
Seraphic pipes along the way in Arcady
In Arcady, In Arcady, In Arcady, In Arcady


2.Last of the English Roses

Honey, honey
My, you did look dapper in your mothers old green scarf
With your famous Auntie Aurthur's trousers on
You were slapped by that slapper
And how we all laughed
But she laughed the loudest
Oh in 『93
You could charm the bees nees of the bees

「Cheeky」 you'd say and we all fell around
Rolling 'round the playground
「Saucy」 you'd say and we all fell about
Rolling 'round the playground
In the 『94
We all sang
Skipping and dancing hand in hand
Yeah, with all the boys together
And all the girls together

She's the last of the English roses
She's the last of the English roses

(I wish to be so whirl awake again)

She knows her Rodneys from her Stanleys
And her Kappas from her Reeboks
And her tit from her tat
And Winstons from her Enoks
It's fine and take what I
Coming out, coming alive
Round the Snooker table
You dance the Frutti-Tutti

She almost spilled her lager
Toasting girls of great beauty
But the closing moved by
Coming of age, coming alive
All the boys together
And all the girls together

She's the last of the English roses
She's the last of the English roses
Yeah, she's the last of the English roses
She's the last of, last of the English
English roses

Ah, sometimes you can't change
There'll be no place
Ce soir, disons chez moi
Enfin je compte de toi
Je te drague la rose mystique
Tu l'arrose mystique?
Ha, vas-y
C'est mon monde de soleil


3.1939 Returning

Captured Clandestine,
Crawled into the light,
Knew he was in for a shoe-in,
Just wasn't to be his night.

Dragged out of the frozen Rhine,
For the Motherland,
and the third reich,
always good to be shoe in,
when it's not to be your night,
your night.

Tred carefully,
so carefully,
on the drifting ice
behind enemy lines,
In 1939,
for Germany,
he sacrificed his life,
caught behind enemy lines,
in 1939.

Kids knee deep in rubble,
London urchins grey with dust,
Back of fout west in evacuation,
the farmers life singing pleasent lies,
far from the doodblebugs.

Nana doll still remembers,
leaving town in worn-out shoes,
Now she's back out west,
in sheltered accomodation,
Homes for the old,
where pills arent the only blues.

Tred carefully,
so carefully,
on the drifting ice
staring into the tv guide,
In 2009,
oh how it hurts me,
I've only seen her twice
since she went west for the second time
since 1939.


4.A Little Death Around the Eyes

A little death around the eyes
Your boyfriend's name was Dave
I was bold and brave
And now you're mine

You cook and clean and sew
When I tell you to, when I ask you to,
If I ask you to,
But I don't want you to..

You don't need tellin' twice with me,
You don't need tellin' twice
To break free,
Ya well, you'll never have break free from me

Your boyfriend's name was Dave
I was bold and brave
And now you're mine

You cook and clean and sew
When I tell you to
Dance and screw when I want you to
In a hotel room you take your medicine
On all fours, that's your medicine
Feeling better now?
Feeling any better now?

A little death around the eyes...


5.Salome

In the cold, coldest of nights
The fire I light, to warm my bones
Oh love, had enough, of the dreadful cold
And from the flames, appears Salome

I stand before her amazed
As she dances and demands
The head of john the baptist on a plate

In the morning, shaken and disturbed
From under soft white fur
I see the dust in the morning bright sets the room alive
And by the telly appears Salome

I stand before her amazed
As she dances and demands
The head of Isidora Duncan on a plate
Oh, It's Salome
Oh, It's Salome

In the cold, coldest of nights
The fire I light, to warm my bones
Oh love, had enough, of the dreadful cold
And from the flames, appears Salome

I stand before her amazed
As she dances and demands
The head of john the baptist on a plate


6.Sweet By and By

2,3,4,
Was it so long ago
When we've first hit the road
I remember
Those earliest shows
When we used to go
Pa pa ra pa pa,
Pa pa ra ra ra ra ra ta ta

Was it so long ago,
When you said you loved me so
And we kisses untold
Your love wouldn't have fall

Oh my where did you go
Oh I don't know
You didn't say goodbye
Where did you go?
Oh you lie,
And you left me wandering, wandering
Your love's just a lie
Everyone said you've found some other guy
Well all I do is hang my head and cry
Sometimes more, sometimes more

Where did you go
Oh I don't know
You didn't say goodbye
Where did you go
I don't know, I..
Oh your love was just a lie
Everywhere I go people say
'Who's that funny guy?
All he does is hangs here down and cry'
Sometimes more, sometimes more
Oh, Oh why?

When we used to go
pa pa ra pa pa...
...


7.Palace of Bone

Though we've been a long time together now,
time together on a snaky road
There ain't no time together,
like time to-together on a snaky road

Winding on through the hills forever,
winding on that snaky road
Winding on forever,
winding on that snaky road

Whats that they're telling you,
that's your future?
I'm telling you,
they're gonna pick your pocket too

Though we've been a long time together,
time together on a snaky road
There ain't no time together,
like time spent together on a snaky road

Winding all through the hills together,
winding on that snaky road
Winding on forever,
winding on that snaky road

What's that they're selling you
of lotions, potions, selling you?
Well, they're gonna pick your pocket or two

In a clearing
I'm going to build me a palace of bone
Wide open walls and an ebony throne
Now all the broken children from every broken home
They'd come and live in a palace of bone

I'm going to build me a palace of bone
wide open walls and an ebony throne
where they're aint no black and white and no innocent soul
can't come and dance in the palace of bone

There ain't no time together,
like time together on a snaky road


8.Sheepskin Tearaway

She opened her heart
To tearaway, (sheepskin tearaway)
Was covered with scars
And full of heroin
Everyone said from the start
Not one single thing, could ever be OK
She listened any way...

She just opened her heart
Through cast away
And how they held him so tight in the dark
He washed the heroin
She heard him say
All my life I've been fighting
And making the best of
And willing very bad luck,
very bad luck, very... very bad luck
To the

Who you're fighting but nowhere
If nowheres here with you
On my skin
And you can fight forever
But if you killed them all
You'll never win
So give me your surrender
There are other ways
To kill the pain
But things will never mend you
It's like trying to dry your eyes and ?

She opened her heart
To tearaway, (sheepskin tearaway)
Was covered with scars
And full of heroin

Tearaway, sheepskin tearaway
Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep
Sheepskin tearaway


9.Broken Love Song

Take a broken love song
Keep it by your side
Never be lonely
Find a place to hide

By the west way
Inside the scrubs
How long must we wait?
For they're killing us?
Killing us

Oh
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
Still

Through my cell window
Hear the loft boys sing
Come on you R's
Carried on the wind

Every morning
I'll be singing
Like a caged bird who might say
John, Paul, George and Ringo
Help me pass the hours away

Free as a bird
Would I be
Another dawn creeps up on me
On me
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
Still

Letters from faceless haters
That'd love to
See my swinging in my cell
Oh I never saw a man
who looked like such a wsitful eye,
as the fear f blue prisoners
call the sky

They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
Still


10.New Love Grows on Trees

Are you still talking to
All of those dead film stars
Like you used to
And are you still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes
And perfect crimes
Like you used to..

And if you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you like you asked me to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you I know you told me to
But I really don't want to

I remember every single thing you said to me
You played the man and I was Calvary
And you said, ah you said
New love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows... New love grows on trees!

That makes perfect nonsense to me
As a price of being free these days
It's ridiculous...

Are you still shaking out
All the dead wood from your bed love
Like you used to
Well times don't change and you're still thinking of
All of those perfect rhymes for love divine
Oh no, you really don't have to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Oh, should I kill you like you asked me to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Should i kill you,
You told me to,
But i really don't want to

I remember every single thing you said to me
You played the man, and i was Calvary

You said new love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows... New love grow on trees


11.Lady. Don't Fall Backwards

Once upon a time
When the cold wind that blows
When the cold wind that blows in my heart
It was a summer breeze and she
Would meet me in Chinatown for opium and tea
And she always brought me flowers
But I spared you those old ballads
Or songs that I couldn't play
But every giro day
She'd dress me like a lady boy
And take me out of the way
Don't let the horse chase the new deal away, no
If we make love in the morning
I see your eyes look like two marbles in your head

Lady don't you fall backwards
C'mon and fall into my arms
Aw, don't you fall backwards
Well, I wouldn't want for you to come to any harm
Now tell me, if darkness comes
Then I will sing you a song
And I will love you forever
At least 'til morning comes
Lady don't you fall backwards
Come on and fall into my arms
Come on and fall into my arms


12.I Am The Rain

I am the rain
held in disdain
lotions and potions jut ad to my fame
The rime that in spain
fall on the plain
The truth is I'm ruthless
I can't be contained.

I'm the rain

My friend the wind
to breath he is twinned
blow high or low high
tornadoes to spin

My mother the cloud
in widow's black shroud
gives birth to the earth
before fields can be plowed

Up in the sky, we've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipe

I am the rain

My cousin the snow
Lays blankets below
.....?

My rival the sun
who ripens the plum
is feared and revered
he gives sight to the gun

Up in the sky, we've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipe
Up in the sky, we've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipe

I am the rain, am the rain

I am the rain, who's held in disdain
the truth is I'm ruthless,
I can't be contained...
