Stephen Malkmus - Ballad Of A Thin Man

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   

You walk into the room 


With your pencil in your hand 


You see somebody naked 


And you say, "Who is that man?" 


You try so hard 


But you don't understand 


Just what you'll say 


When you get home 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones? 





You raise up your head 


And you ask, "Is this where it is?" 


And somebody points to you and says 


"It's his" 


And you say, "What's mine?" 


And somebody else says, "Where what is?" 


And you say, "Oh my God 


Am I here all alone?" 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones? 





You hand in your ticket 


And you go watch the geek 


Who immediately walks up to you 


When he hears you speak 


And says, "How does it feel 


To be such a freak?" 


And you say, "Impossible" 


As he hands you a bone 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones? 





You have many contacts 


Among the lumberjacks 


To get you facts 


When someone attacks your imagination 


But nobody has any respect 


Anyway they already expect you 


To just give a check 


To tax-deductible charity organizations 





You've been with the professors 


And they've all liked your looks 


With great lawyers you have 


Discussed lepers and crooks 


You've been through all of 


F. Scott Fitzgerald's books 


You're very well read 


It's well known 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones? 





Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to you 


And then he kneels 


He crosses himself 


And then he clicks his high heels 


And without further notice 


He asks you how it feels 


And he says, "Here is your throat back 


Thanks for the loan" 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones? 





Now you see this one-eyed midget 


Shouting the word "NOW" 


And you say, "For what reason?" 


And he says, "How?" 


And you say, "What does this mean?" 


And he screams back, "You're a cow 


Give me some milk 


Or else go home" 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones? 





Well, you walk into the room 


Like a camel and then you frown 


You put your eyes in your pocket 


And your nose on the ground 


There ought to be a law 


Against you comin' around 


You should be made 


To wear earphones 





Because something is happening here 


But you don't know what it is 


Do you, Mister Jones?
