Garbage (如果我试着爱她) - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

Mister thompson calls the waiter[00:00:05]

Orders steak and baked potato[00:00:07]

Then he leaves the bone and gristle[00:00:09]

And he never eats the skin[00:00:11]

The busboy comes and takes it[00:00:15]

With a cough contaminates it[00:00:17]

And he puts it in a can with coffee grounds[00:00:19]

And sardine tins[00:00:22]

And the truck comes by on friday and carts it all away[00:00:25]

A thousand trucks just like it are converging on the bay[00:00:30]

Oh garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:00:33]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:00:36]

We're filling up the seas with garbage[00:00:38]

Garbage garbage garbage[00:00:41]

What will we do when there's no place left[00:00:42]

To put all the garbage[00:00:45]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:00:47]

Garbage garbage[00:00:48]

Mr thompson starts his cadillac[00:00:50]

And winds it down the freeway track[00:00:52]

Leaving friends and neighbors in a hydrocarbon haze[00:00:54]

He's joined by lots of smaller cars[00:01:00]

All sending gases to the stars[00:01:02]

There to form a seething cloud that[00:01:04]

Hangs for thirty days[00:01:06]

And the sun licks down into it with an ultraviolet tongue[00:01:10]

Till it turns to smog and then it settles in our lungs[00:01:14]

Oh garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:01:18]

Garbage[00:01:21]

We're filling up the sky with garbage[00:01:22]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:01:25]

Garbage garbage[00:01:27]

What will we do when there's nothing left to breathe but garbage[00:01:28]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:01:33]

Getting home and taking off his shoes[00:01:38]

He settles with the evening news[00:01:40]

While the kids do homework with the tv in one ear[00:01:42]

While superman for thousandth's time sell[00:01:47]

Talking dolls and conquers crime[00:01:50]

They dutifully learn the date of birth of paul revere[00:01:52]

In the paper there's a piece about[00:01:57]

The mayor's middle name[00:01:59]

And he gets it ready in time[00:02:01]

To watch the all star bingo game[00:02:03]

Oh garbage[00:02:05]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:02:06]

Garbage garbage[00:02:08]

We're filling up our minds with garbage[00:02:09]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:02:12]

What will we do when there's nothing left to read[00:02:15]

And there's nothing left to need[00:02:19]

There's nothing left to watch[00:02:21]

There's nothing left to touch[00:02:23]

There's nothing left to walk upon[00:02:25]

And nothing left to ponder on[00:02:27]

Nothing left to see[00:02:29]

And nothing left to be but garbage[00:02:30]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:02:33]

Garbage garbage[00:02:36]

Garbage[00:02:41]

Garbage garbage garbage[00:02:44]

In Mr thompson's factory they're making plastic christmas trees[00:02:48]

Complete with silver tinsel and a geodesic stand[00:02:52]

The plastic's mixed in giant vats[00:02:58]

From some conglomeration that's[00:03:00]

Been piped from deep within the earth or strip mined from the land[00:03:02]

And if you ask them questions they say why don't you see[00:03:08]

It's absolutely needed for the economy[00:03:11]

Oh garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:03:15]

Garbage[00:03:18]

Their stocks and their bonds all garbage[00:03:19]

Garbage[00:03:22]

What will they do when their system go to smash[00:03:23]

There's no value to their cash[00:03:27]

There's no money to be made[00:03:28]

That there's a world to be repaid[00:03:30]

Their kids will read in history book[00:03:32]

About financiers and other crooks[00:03:34]

And feudalism and slavery[00:03:36]

And nukes and all their knavery[00:03:38]

To history's dustbin they're consigned[00:03:41]

Along with many other kinds of garbage[00:03:43]

Garbage garbage garbage garbage garbage[00:03:46]
