New Thing Now (如今新事物) - Shawn Colvin (肖恩·卡文)

This is your new thing now

Naked as a rose

Everything exposed

But not quite

This is your new thing now

Cards out on the table

A genius with no label

But not quite not quite

God I swear it's good to be back home

Waiting for the newest rolling stone

All the other girls are still at war

And the best and worst of 1994

Sometimes I see the half and not the whole

Sometimes I see the face and not the soul

Sometimes I think this place has no part

For anyone who ever had a heart

This is your new thing now

And it looks so good in print

Just a poet and her pimps

But not quite

This is your new thing now

A prom dress and a sneer

The woman of the year

But not quite not quite

And gee it's good to see a dream come true

People smile and bless all over you

Mixing up those latest junkie isms

With all the pretty terms of religion

And don't you love the leader of the band

Equal parts butthead and Peter Pan

All the other kids are sad again

And a legend's not a legend 'til it ends

This is your new thing now

And it makes the whole world spin

It's as least as old as sin

But not quite

This is your new thing now

And now you're turning grinning

But maybe no one's listening

And you might lose it all my darling

Yes you might

This is your new thing now

And it feels so good to doubt you

I could almost live without you

But not quite not quite not quite

Not quite
