Jokerman - Bob Dylan.mp3

[00:00.00] 作曲 : B. Dylan
[00:02.16]Standing on the waters casting your bread
[00:04.48]While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing.
[00:10.23]
[00:12.93]Distant ships sailing into the mist'
[00:15.55]You were born with a snake in both of
[00:18.36]your fists while a hurricane was blowing.
[00:21.11]
[00:23.13]Freedom just around the corner for you
[00:28.38]
[00:29.57]But with the truth so far off' what good will it do?
[00:34.82]
[00:37.13]Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune'
[00:40.76]Bird fly high by the light of the moon'
[00:44.33]Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman.
[00:49.33]
[00:51.89]So swiftly the sun sets in the sky'
[00:55.58]You rise up and say goodbye to no one.
[00:59.83]Fools rush in where angels fear to tread'
[01:05.77]Both of their futures' so full of dread' you don't show one.
[01:11.04]
[01:13.47]Shedding off one more layer of skin'
[01:18.10]
[01:19.79]Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within.
[01:23.91]Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune'
[01:30.85]Bird fly high by the light of the moon'
[01:34.41]Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman.
[01:40.11]
[01:41.36]You're a man of the mountains' you can walk on the clouds'
[01:44.80]Manipulator of crowds' you're a dream twister.
[01:49.55]
[01:51.80]You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah
[01:53.93]But what do you care? Ain't nobody there would want to marry your sister.
[02:00.61]
[02:03.11]Friend to the martyr' a friend to the woman of shame'
[02:09.55]You look into the fiery furnace' see the rich man without any name.
[02:15.18]
[02:17.11]Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune'
[02:20.61]Bird fly high by the light of the moon'
[02:24.11]Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman.
[02:30.43]
[02:41.55]Well' the Book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy'
[02:45.40]The law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers.
[02:50.71]
[02:52.15]In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed'
[02:56.34]Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.
[03:01.45]
[03:03.33]Resting in the fields' far from the turbulent space'
[03:08.27]
[03:09.83]Half asleep near the stars with a small dog licking your face.
[03:15.02]
[03:17.40]Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune'
[03:20.90]Bird fly high by the light of the moon'
[03:24.14]Oh. oh. oh. Jokerman.
[03:30.96]
[03:41.89]Well' the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame'
[03:45.58]Preacherman seeks the same' who'll get there first is uncertain.
[03:50.39]
[03:52.83]Nightsticks and water cannons' tear gas' padlocks'
[03:56.27]Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain'
[04:01.27]
[04:03.39]False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin'
[04:08.97]
[04:09.78]Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
[04:14.91]
[04:17.28]Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune'
[04:20.85]Bird fly high by the light of the moon'
[04:24.35]Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman.
[04:30.03]
[04:41.85]It's a shadowy world' skies are slippery gray'
[04:45.66]A woman just gave birth to a prince today and dressed him in scarlet.
[04:52.47]He'll put the priest in his pocket' put the blade to the heat'
[04:56.16]Take the motherless children off the street
[04:58.72]And place them at the feet of a harlot.
[05:02.85]
[05:03.41]Oh' Jokerman' you know what he wants'
[05:10.54]Oh' Jokerman' you don't show any response.
[05:16.60]
[05:17.41]Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune'
[05:20.91]Bird fly high by the light of the moon'
[05:24.66]Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman.
