Meanest Man - Billy Bragg/Wilco (照办乐队)[00:00:00]
If the folks next door to me wasn't so good[00:00:15]
I'd do all the mean things anybody could[00:00:18]
I'd drink and I'd gamble and I'd louse around[00:00:22]
I'd be the meanest man in this whole town[00:00:26]
If I hadn't seen the light in that old ladys eyes[00:00:33]
I'd try to be a man that you would hate and despise[00:00:37]
I'd rave and I'd rant and I'd scream and yell[00:00:41]
And I'd chase all my neighbours from here to hell[00:00:45]
If I hadn't heard those kI'ds laugh playing games[00:00:48]
I'd have nervous fits and I'd go insane[00:00:52]
I'd turpentine cats and tin can dogs[00:00:56]
And I'd smother people to death insI'de of holler logs[00:00:59]
If the people around me wasn't so nice[00:01:18]
I'd freeze my heart into a cake of ice[00:01:22]
I'd steal money from soldiers and working folks too[00:01:25]
I'd lend you a dollar and take back two[00:01:29]
If my wife dI'dnt kiss me the way she does[00:01:37]
I'd carry four or five daggers and three or four guns[00:01:40]
I'd shoot craps and ramble and hang out late[00:01:44]
And I'd steal baby buggies and cadillac eights[00:01:48]
If my friends dI'dnt write me those letters I get[00:01:51]
I'd get to be a dictator and be the worse one yet[00:01:55]
I'd be the only smart bird and you'd all be fools[00:01:59]
All I'd send you all away to war[00:02:03]
And I'd set home and rule[00:02:04]
If it wasn't for them songs I hear all of you sing[00:02:21]
I'd put a crown on my dome and I'd say I'm your king[00:02:25]
I'd kI'dnap some and blackmail others[00:02:29]
I'd peddle black market stuff and rob sisters and brothers[00:02:33]
If it wasn't for your talking I hear along the street[00:02:36]
I'd be the oneriest man that you ever dI'd meet[00:02:40]
I'd preach the gospel of hate and I'd drink your blood[00:02:44]
But I can't be this bad because my folks are too good[00:02:47]
But I can't be this bad because my folks are too good[00:02:51]
I'd preach the gospel of hate and I'd drink your blood[00:02:55]
