The Miranda Syndrome - Ruben Blades (鲁本·布雷德斯)[00:00:00]

She threw good money after bad[00:00:08]

She bought a ticket to America a cocacola and a magazine[00:00:12]

But in the final reel she knew she'd see justice[00:00:21]

Her brother stayed and played the town[00:00:28]

He's holding up a bank like harpo marx[00:00:32]

He's saying if I walk away right now[00:00:38]

These walls will fall down[00:00:41]

Not too many people remember that joke now[00:00:43]

But in an office without windows they declared the world was flat[00:00:50]

And decided to create a fool for the world would believe that[00:00:59]

All for a song and dance and an edible hat[00:01:08]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:01:14]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:01:23]

Won't you come home[00:01:30]

And when the picture house closed down[00:01:37]

There was a porno shop now that is gone[00:01:42]

And all the things that once belonged to you belong to everyone[00:01:47]

They know the foolish way she looked[00:01:54]

They say why don't you speak the way she spoke[00:01:59]

That's when I give the punchline to an old national joke[00:02:05]

If you're a police dog where's your police badge[00:02:14]

And if you're a cowboy where's your spurs[00:02:18]

If you're an oilman where's your oil well[00:02:23]

You know the ones marked his and hers[00:02:28]

She wasn't the only one fooled by a hollywood word[00:02:31]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:02:37]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:02:46]

Won't you come home[00:02:53]

And now the weatherman predicts[00:03:01]

That if it rains he'll blow his brains right on the air[00:03:06]

So you all decide to tune in though[00:03:12]

You don't know if you care[00:03:14]

For now the news is just showbiz[00:03:18]

They make a trivial case of every curse[00:03:23]

And food is just like cabaret and vice versa[00:03:29]

But in an office without windows they declared the world was flat[00:03:38]

And decided to create a fool for the world would believe that[00:03:47]

All for a song and dance and an edible hat[00:03:55]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:04:01]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:04:10]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:04:19]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:04:28]

Carmen miranda won't you come home[00:04:37]
