The Rake’s Song(Live)

The Rake's Song - The Decemberists (十二月党)[00:00:00]

I had entered into a marriage[00:00:08]

In the summer of my twenty-first year[00:00:12]

And the bells rang for our wedding[00:00:16]

Only now do I remember it clear[00:00:19]

Alright alright alright[00:00:23]

No more a rake and no more a bachelor[00:00:31]

I was wedded and it whetted my thirst[00:00:35]

Until her womb start spilling out babies[00:00:39]

Only then did I reckon my curse[00:00:43]

Alright alright alright[00:00:46]

Alright alright alright[00:00:54]

First came Isaiah with his crinkled little fingers[00:01:06]

Then came Charlotte and that wretched girl Dawn[00:01:10]

Ugly Myfanwy died on delivery[00:01:14]

Mercifully taking her mother along[00:01:18]

Alright alright alright[00:01:21]

What can one do when one is widower[00:01:30]

Shamefully saddled with three little pests[00:01:34]

All that I wanted was the freedom of a new life[00:01:37]

So my burden I began to divest[00:01:41]

Alright alright alright[00:01:45]

Alright alright alright[00:01:52]

Charlotte I buried after feeding her foxglove[00:02:20]

Dawn was easy she was drowned in the bath[00:02:24]

Isaiah fought but was easily bested[00:02:28]

Burned his body for incurring my wrath[00:02:32]

Alright alright alright[00:02:35]

And that's how I came your humble narrator[00:02:43]

To be living so easy and free[00:02:48]

Expect you think that I should be haunted[00:02:51]

But it never really bothers me[00:02:56]

Alright alright alright[00:02:59]

Alright alright alright[00:03:06]
