Epistle To Derroll
作词:Leitch Donovan Phillips
Come all ye starry starfish, living in the deep blue sea Crawl to me I have proposition to make thee Would you walk the north sea floor To Belgium from England, bring me word of a banjo man With a tattoo on his hand, the spokesman of the starfish
Spoke as spokesman should If you met our fee then, certainly we would If you cast a looking glass, upon the scalloped sand You'll have word o' this banjo man with a tattoo on his hand
Come ye starry starfish, I know your ways are caped Maybe it's because you're astrologically shaped Converse with the herring shoals as I know you can Bring me word o' the banjo man with a tattoo on his hand
The eldest of the starfish, spoke, after a sigh Youthful as you are young man, you have a wisdom eye Surely you must know a looking glass is made from sand? These young fish are fooling you about this banjo man
Come then aged starfish, riddle me no more For news I am weary and my heart is sore All on the silent seashore, help me if you can Tell to me if you know of this banjo man 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网
All through the seven oceans, I am a star, most famed Many leggys have I lost and many have I gained Strange to say quite recently, I've been to Fleming land And if you are courteous, I'll tell you all I can
'You have my full attention', I answered him with glee His brother stars were twinkling in the sky above the sea So I sat there with rapt, attention, on the sand Very anxious for to hear of the banjo man
I have seen this tattooed hand, through a ship port-hole Steaming on the watery main, through the waves so cold Heard his tinkling banjo and his voice so grand But you must come to Belgium to shake his tattooed hand
Gladly would I come oh, gladly would I go Had I not my work to do and my face to show I rejoice to know he's well but I must go inland Thank you for the words you brought of the banjo man
I walked along the evening sand as charcoal clouds did shift Revealing the moon shining on the pebble drift Contemplating every other word, the starfish said Whistly winds they filled my dreams in my dreaming bed
