The Drowned Girl (Live)歌词

作曲 : Kurt Weill/Bertholt Brecht
The Drowned Girl - David Bowie

Once she had drowned
And started her slow descent

Down the streams to
Where the great rivers broaden

Oh the open sky chant most magnificent

As if it was acting as her body's guardian

Wreck and duck ****
Slowly increased her weight

By clasping her in their slimy grip

Through her limbs
The cold blooded fishes played

Creatures and plant life kept on
Thus obstructing her last trip

And the sky that same evening
Grew dark as smoke

And it's stars through the night
Kept the brightness still soaring

But it quickly grew clear
When dawn now broke

To see that she got one further morning

Once her pallid trunk
Had rotted beyond repair

It happened quite slowly that
She gently slipped from God's thoughts

First with her face then her hands
Right at the last with her hair

Leaving those corpse-choked
Rivers just one more corpse
