Play For Today (为了今天) - Belle and Sebastian (贝尔与塞贝斯蒂安)[00:00:00]

Stuart：I'm in a play written today about a boy[00:00:30]

Who hides in attics when the sun is up[00:00:36]

Everyone is at work[00:00:40]

What will I do[00:00:45]

Where will I go[00:00:47]

Show me the way[00:00:49]

The truth the anger show me rules of thumb[00:00:52]

Show the way to grow old[00:00:56]

Love is a guide[00:01:01]

The endless river of the soul[00:01:03]

But we are mean[00:01:08]

The dried up riverbeds of rock and stone[00:01:11]

Lust is my friend[00:01:16]

She comes to me when I am tired[00:01:18]

Life is a rope death is a myth[00:01:24]

Love is a fraud it's misunderstood[00:01:27]

Work is a sentence family's a drag[00:01:31]

This house is a trap[00:01:35]

Dee Dee：I'm in a play written today about a girl[00:01:46]

She gets on perfectly with young and old[00:02:01]

Everybody loves her[00:02:05]

What would she wear the cut of her hair[00:02:10]

The way that she slides[00:02:13]

Gracefully into the working week[00:02:17]

She hides her baggage inside[00:02:20]

She's got a friend[00:02:25]

An ugly monster that will eat your face[00:02:28]

She hides her crime[00:02:32]

A hefty catalogue of wasted time[00:02:35]

She's got a friend[00:02:40]

A lonely monster that will prey on you[00:02:43]

Life is a secret death is a myth[00:02:48]

Love is a fraud it's misunderstood[00:02:52]

Work is a sentence family's a drag[00:02:56]

This house is a trap[00:02:59]

Life is a secret death is a myth[00:03:03]

Love is a fraud it's misunderstood[00:03:07]

Work is a sentence family's a drag[00:03:11]

This house is a trap[00:03:15]

Stuart：I'm in a play written today about a boy[00:03:46]

Tired and melancholy takes the weight[00:03:56]

Takes the weight of the world[00:04:00]

Dee Dee：I walked alone loving a song[00:04:04]

Walking the earth[00:04:08]

The worn-out sister who is twenty-three[00:04:11]

Dried and wrinkled alone[00:04:15]

I'll give you a month[00:04:20]

To see past shadows in your sacred night[00:04:23]

I'll give you a week[00:04:28]

To look Medusa in the eye[00:04:30]

I'll give you a month[00:04:35]

To notice heaven in the sight of stage[00:04:38]

Dee Dee：You're king inside your head[00:04:59]

You're sitting on the throne of sand[00:05:09]

You're pushing back the tide[00:05:17]

Stuart：So lift the mountain up[00:05:21]

So tie the writer's ribbons down[00:05:32]

Assemble all your troops[00:05:40]

Both：We go to war with metaphors[00:05:44]

And suddenly see sense[00:05:55]

And suddenly see sense[00:05:59]

And when you do I'll have the higher ground[00:06:03]

I'll have the higher ground[00:06:07]

You're not the king of me[00:06:11]

Stuart：I'll take my chance and play for tyranny[00:06:19]

I build the sets I light the scene[00:06:26]

We're prettier when we are on the screen[00:06:34]

Both：I build the sets I light the scene[00:06:38]

We're braver when we're on the sacred screen[00:06:49]

The backstage of your life[00:06:57]

Is filled with props and lines you should have sung[00:07:04]

The backstage of your life[00:07:12]

Is filled with echoes of the ones you love[00:07:20]
