All The Old Showstoppers 歌词

Artist:the new pornographers

Songs Title:all the old showstoppers

 

When John he saw the numbers he lied

 

Made up the whole thing failed when he tried

 

To cash in on his cautious new fame

 

Always the numbers but never the name

 

We we hit the numbers we broke

 

Broken and changed them changed as we spoke

 

We knew that we would always be down

 

Hitting the numbers spun way 'round

 

And somebody beside you

 

Slipped your head inside the crown

 

The princes of the paupers

 

And all the old showstoppers

 

Till this moment's still unknown

 

Sirens' songs have tried too

 

Yet she takes you as her own

 

The princes of the paupers

And all the old showstoppers

Till this moment's still unknown

 

And when he got the numbers he thought

 

Thought of his friends who slowed to a halt

 

Who had questioned to no avail

 

Some knew the answers some wouldn't tell

 

When Gabriel saw the numbers he fell

 

Fell through the clouds into the great well

 

But woke up before he hit the ground

 

No one had noticed still he looked around

 

And somebody beside you

 

Slipped your head inside the crown

 

The princes of the paupers

 

And all the old showstoppers

 

Till this moment's still unknown

 

Sirens' songs have tried too

 

Yet she takes you as her own

 

The princes of the paupers

 

And all the old showstoppers

 

Till this moment's still unknown

 

With her hand to guide you

 

You are nothing if not home

 

The princes of the paupers

 

And all the old showstoppers

 

 

Till this moment's still unknown
