Crossroads - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)[00:00:00]
Now George was a good straight boy[00:00:00]
To begin with but there was bad blood[00:00:03]
In him someway he got into[00:00:08]
The magic bullets and that leads straight to[00:00:10]
Devil's work just like m*******a[00:00:13]
Leads to h****n you think yo ucan take[00:00:16]
Them bullets or leave 'em do you[00:00:20]
Just save a few for your bad days[00:00:23]
Well now we all have those bad days[00:00:26]
When you can't shoot for sh*t[00:00:30]
The more of them magics you use[00:00:33]
The more bad days you have without them[00:00:35]
So it comes down finally to all[00:00:38]
Your days being bad without the bullets[00:00:42]
It's magics or nothing[00:00:46]
Time to stop chippying around[00:00:48]
And kidding yourself[00:00:50]
Kid you're hooked heavy as lead[00:00:53]
And that's where old George found himself[00:01:01]
Out there at the crossroads[00:01:04]
Molding the Devil's bullets[00:01:07]
Now a man figures it's his bullets so it will[00:01:10]
Hit what he wants to hit[00:01:14]
But it don't always work that way[00:01:16]
You see some bullets is special[00:01:19]
For a single aim[00:01:21]
A certain stag or a certain person[00:01:22]
And no matter where you are[00:01:25]
That's where the bullet will end up[00:01:27]
And in the moment of aiming[00:01:29]
The gun turns into a dowser's wand[00:01:31]
And point where the bullet wants to go[00:01:35]
George Schmid was moving in[00:01:41]
A series of convulsive spasms like someone[00:01:43]
With an epileptic fit with his[00:01:47]
Face distorted and his eyes wild like a[00:01:49]
Lassoed horse bracing his legs[00:01:52]
But something kept pulling him on And now[00:01:55]
He is picking up the skulls[00:01:58]
And making the circle[00:02:00]
I guess old George didn't rightly[00:02:02]
Know what he's getting himself into[00:02:04]
The fit was on him and it[00:02:08]
Carried him right to the crossroads[00:02:09]
