——————ALL BY MARK LINKOUS,(SPARKLEHORSE 乐队主脑)
--- Piano Fire ---
I got sunburnt waiting for the jets to land
circus people with hairy little hands
hit it boys strike up the army band
I got sunburnt waiting for the jets
how do you feel?
how do you feel?
I can\'t seem to see through solid marble eyes
fiery pianos washed up on a foggy coast
squeaky old organs have given up the ghost
fire them up and kill the piano birds
there\'s creaky old organs burning on the coast
how do you feel?
how do you feel?
I can\'t seem to breathe with a rusted metal heart
I can\'t seem to see through solid marble eyes
--- Sea Of Teeth ---
can you feel the wind of venus on your skin?
can you taste the crush of a sunset\'s dying blush?
stars will always hang in summer\'s bleeding fangs
can you feel the rings of saturn on your finger?
can you taste the ghosts who shed their creaking hosts?
but seas forever boil, trees will turn to soil
stars will always hand in summer\'s bleeding veils
but seas forever boil, trees will turn to soil
--- Apple Bed ---
of horses wet
with melted ice
they would not heed
my advice
and burdened limbs
of its weight
to break and rot
a whispered fate
please
doctor, please
a remedy
in a bloody sea
to breach the hive
and smoke the bees
you can be my friend
you can be my dog
you can be my light
you can be my fog
please
doctor, please
the witches will return to their sticky tree knots
I will feel the sun
I will feel the sun
I will feel the sun coming down
I wish I had
a horse\'s head
a tiger\'s heart
an apple bed
--- Eye Pennies ---
I will return here one day
and dig up my boats from the clay
I buried nails and strings and hair
and an old tooth I believe was a bear\'s
I held my hand in the fire
it burned me down to the wires
blood suckers hide beneath my bed
in black fumes of sleep so gently bled
I slept with a cat on my breast
slowing my heart stealing my breath
at sunrise the monkeys will fly
and leave me with pennies in my eyes
I will return here one day
and dig up my boats from the clay
I buried nails and string and hair
and that old tooth I believe was a bear\'s
at sunrise the monkeys will fly
and leave me with pennies in my eyes
--- More Yellow Birds ---
is your jewellery still lost in the sand
out on the coast, or rushed into the brine?
you left your rings on the shoreline
so you wouldn\'t lose them swimming in the shallows
a plastic shovel, soft sweaty children far from home
on vacation not unlike your very own
and the Captain Howdy lit upon my shoulder
and he left me with sulphur and rooms full of headaches
I fell in with snakes in the poisoned ranks of strangers
please send me more yellow birds for the dim interior
will my pony recognise my voice in hell?
will he still be blind, or do they go by smell?
will you promise not to rest me out at sea
but on a fiery river boat that\'s rickety?
I\'ll never find my pony along the roiling swells
a muddy river or a lake could do me well
with hints of amber sundowns and muted thunderstorms
and sunken barge\'s horns, with their cold and rusty bells
--- Little Fat Baby ---
did you save your wisdom teeth?
did you burn your christmas tree?
he got dragged by a donkey
through the dust and the myrtle
but he was once a little fat baby
did you lose your fatty in the bath?
did you make the city slickers laugh?
he got dragged by a donkey
through the glass and the myrtle
but he was once a little fat baby
did you burn your wisdom teeth?
did you save your christmas tree?
he got dragged by a donkey
through the switches and the myrtle
but he was once a little fat baby
--- Comfort Me ---
with rocks in my dress
and smoke in my hair
I walked into a lake
to get some sleep down in there
won\'t you come to comfort me?
won\'t you come to comfort me?
With minnows in my belly
and ink in my veins
the breath-robbin\' lightning
was making diamonds of rain
won\'t you come to comfort me?
won\'t you come to comfort me?
dreamed I was born on a mountain on the moon
Where nothing grows or ever rots
I dreamed that I had me a daughter
who was magnificent as a horse
won\'t you come to comfort me?
won\'t you come to comfort me?
won\'t you come to comfort me?
--- Babies On The Sun ---
the sound of your voice
rose graves of cats
the pounding of your steps
woke caves of bats
babies on the sun
babies on the sun
your first burning breath
was a symphony
and a ship full of horses
was going down at sea
babies on the sun
babies on the sun
--- Saint Mary ---
blanket me sweet nurse
and keep me from burnin\'
I must get back
to the woods dear girls
I must get back to the woods
in the bloody elevator rising for their first cup of tea
of the day
when does sky turn into space
and air into wind?
the only things
I really need
is water, a gun, and rabbits
let me rest
my fevered cheek
upon your warm sweet bellies
in the bloody elevator going to the bright theatre now
come on boys
please let me taste the clean dirt in my lungs
and moss on my back
圣玛丽
亲爱的护士请给我毯子
让我逃离火焰
回到森林里,亲爱的女孩们
回到森林
在他们初茶升起的血腥电梯里
何时天空变成太空
空气变成微风
我唯一真正需要的
是水和枪炮
以及野兔
让我滚烫的脸颊栖息
在你温暖芬芳的小腹
来吧,男孩们
在通往辉煌剧院的血腥电梯里
让我舔尝我肺里
干净的污垢
与背上的青苔
--- Sunshine ---
I opened my eyes
and watched the sunshine
it had been out all night
to relax and unwind
there will come a time gigantic
waves will crush the junk that I have saved
when the moon explodes or floats away
I\'ll lose the souvenirs I made
la la la
I lay down on the grass
and let the insects do their thing
she covered me with wings and
held my head and said \'poor thing\'
there will come a time gigantic
waves will crush the junk that I have saved
when the moon explodes or floats away
I\'ll lose the souvenirs I made
la la la
