American Wife的歌词
"Losing your brave," is that what he said?
The flag will still wave even after you're dead
I'll be your American wife
Like the eagle perched atop the globe
We'll climb up above the smog
And live in blissful ignorance
With a dog and a TV set
We'll eat flesh until we're fatter than our friends
But I only play the fool very often
I only bet my heart like a spade
But I like the gambling life
You never know what you're going to get
Bet your shoes, keys, and glasses
You'll be barefoot, free from debt, blinded, and wandering
Maybe then you'll be happier, then
(Then you'll be happier, then)
The wind doesn't move down these parts anymore
And so goes the bartering life
Caught for food, then they strap you down
You scream, "Miami was pretty, before we were bitter
Before we let our sadness litter the streets"
You offered your father could be mine
We looked at your family tree, and politely declined
You have eleven siblings
Who've had ten broken limbs
Nine divorces
And eight broken hearts
And seven grandkids
And six bypass surgeries
Five college degrees
Four are sick
Three are well
Two are dead
One's in jail
No one here moves away
No one here moves away
(Is that what I said?)
My memory fades when I'm drinking in bed
I miss the sobering life
Until I'm a fearless, faithless nothing-at-all
Because no one escapes their life
No one escapes their life
No one escapes their life
(No one, no one)
It may sound depressing
It's just a life lesson
In the bartering, gambling life
I'll be your American Wife
The flag will still wave even after you're dead
I'll be your American wife
Like the eagle perched atop the globe
We'll climb up above the smog
And live in blissful ignorance
With a dog and a TV set
We'll eat flesh until we're fatter than our friends
But I only play the fool very often
I only bet my heart like a spade
But I like the gambling life
You never know what you're going to get
Bet your shoes, keys, and glasses
You'll be barefoot, free from debt, blinded, and wandering
Maybe then you'll be happier, then
(Then you'll be happier, then)
The wind doesn't move down these parts anymore
And so goes the bartering life
Caught for food, then they strap you down
You scream, "Miami was pretty, before we were bitter
Before we let our sadness litter the streets"
You offered your father could be mine
We looked at your family tree, and politely declined
You have eleven siblings
Who've had ten broken limbs
Nine divorces
And eight broken hearts
And seven grandkids
And six bypass surgeries
Five college degrees
Four are sick
Three are well
Two are dead
One's in jail
No one here moves away
No one here moves away
(Is that what I said?)
My memory fades when I'm drinking in bed
I miss the sobering life
Until I'm a fearless, faithless nothing-at-all
Because no one escapes their life
No one escapes their life
No one escapes their life
(No one, no one)
It may sound depressing
It's just a life lesson
In the bartering, gambling life
I'll be your American Wife
