Ezmerelda Steals the Show - Jack White (杰克·怀特)[00:00:00]
Written by:Jack White[00:00:00]
What melancholy magic[00:00:05]
Has turned a multitude into mush[00:00:07]
Mandibles drop from shock[00:00:10]
An old lady at high altitude[00:00:13]
Whispering hush[00:00:15]
She slips off her white shoes[00:00:18]
And grabs her tenor pacifier[00:00:20]
From its stand[00:00:22]
Thirty half steps to the microphone[00:00:25]
Smile on her face[00:00:28]
Flower in her hand[00:00:29]
Oh how a crowd can melt[00:00:33]
When they've been dealt[00:00:35]
Such a deliciously delicate blow[00:00:36]
By a barefooted fairy[00:00:40]
Not with a clang but a whisper[00:00:42]
Totally stealing the show[00:00:45]
Fools desire distraction[00:00:49]
And not take to heart[00:00:51]
Their faces to their gadgets fall south[00:00:53]
Ignoring the beauty of a fog on a hill[00:00:57]
And a kitten with a mouse in it's mouth[00:01:00]
A motley mob settles down[00:01:04]
And there's hardly a frown[00:01:07]
As the air in the temple turns to mist[00:01:09]
A spotlight a mark and a cleanse of the throat[00:01:13]
And her microphone gently is kissed[00:01:17]
You can hear a boot lace[00:01:20]
And a speck of dust taste[00:01:22]
As the babe bravely stared down the herd[00:01:24]
But she played not a note[00:01:28]
And only one moment spoke[00:01:30]
These simple and poignant five words[00:01:32]
You people are totally absurd[00:01:36]
