Pieces of a Man - Gil Scott-Heron (吉尔·斯科特·赛壬)[00:00:00]

Written by：Gil Scott-Heron/Brian Jackson[00:00:14]

Jagged jigsaw pieces[00:00:28]

Tossed about the room[00:00:34]

I saw my grandma sweeping[00:00:40]

With her old straw broom[00:00:47]

She didn't know what she was doing[00:00:53]

She could hardly understand[00:00:59]

That she was really sweeping up[00:01:10]

Pieces of a man[00:01:17]

I saw my daddy greet the mailman[00:01:23]

And I heard the mailman say[00:01:29]

Now don't you take this letter to heart now jimmy[00:01:35]

Cause they've laid off nine others today[00:01:42]

He didn't know what he was saying[00:01:48]

He could hardly understand[00:01:55]

That he was only talking to[00:02:05]

Pieces of a man[00:02:12]

I saw the thunder and heard the lightning[00:02:17]

And felt the burden of his shame[00:02:23]

And for some unknown reason[00:02:30]

He never turned my way[00:02:37]

Pieces of that letter[00:02:44]

Were tossed about that room[00:02:50]

And now I hear the sound of sirens[00:02:56]

Come knifing through the gloom[00:03:03]

They don't know what they are doing[00:03:09]

They could hardly understand[00:03:16]

That they're only arresting[00:03:26]

Pieces of a man[00:03:32]

I saw him go to pieces[00:03:39]

I saw him go to pieces[00:03:45]

He was always such a good man[00:03:51]

He was always such a good man[00:03:58]

Yeah I saw him go to pieces[00:04:04]

I saw him go to pieces[00:04:11]

I saw him go to pieces[00:04:17]
