Opium Tea - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds (尼克·凯夫和坏种乐队)[00:00:00]
There I sleep the morning through[00:00:28]
Till the wail of the call to prayer awakes me[00:00:33]
And there ain't nothing at all to do[00:00:38]
But rise and follow[00:00:41]
The day wherever it takes me[00:00:43]
I stand at the window and I look at the sea[00:00:49]
And I am what I am and what will be will be[00:00:54]
I stand at the window and I look at the sea[00:00:58]
And I make me a pot of o***m tea[00:01:03]
Down at the port I watch the boats come in[00:01:16]
Watch the boats come in can do something to you[00:01:21]
And the kids gather around with an outstretched hand[00:01:25]
And I toss them a dirham or two[00:01:30]
Well I wonder if my children are thinking of me[00:01:35]
Cause I am what I am and what will be will be[00:01:41]
I wonder if my kids are thinking of me[00:01:46]
And I smile and I sip my o***m tea[00:01:50]
At night the sea lashes the rust red ramparts[00:02:03]
And the shapes of hooded men who pass me[00:02:09]
And the moan of the wind laughs[00:02:14]
And laughs and laughs[00:02:17]
The strange luck that fate has cast me[00:02:19]
Well the cats on the rampart sing merrily[00:02:24]
That he is what he is and what will be will be[00:02:28]
Yeah the cats on the rampart sing merrily[00:02:33]
And I sit and I drink of my o***m tea[00:02:37]
I'm a prisoner here I can never go home[00:02:51]
There is nothing here to win or lose[00:02:55]
There are no choices needed to be made at all[00:03:00]
Not even the choice of having to choose[00:03:04]
Well I'm a prisoner here yes but I'm also free[00:03:10]
Cause I am what I am and what will be will be[00:03:15]
I'm a prisoner here yeah but I'm also free[00:03:20]
And I smile and I sip my o***m tea[00:03:24]
