The Last Resort (最后的圣地) - Stereophonics (立体音响乐队)[00:00:00]

She came from Providence the one in Rhode Island[00:00:08]

Where the old world shadows hang heavy in the air [00:00:16]

She packed her hopes and dreams like a refugee [00:00:23]

Just as her father came across the sea [00:00:31]

She heard about a place people were smilin' [00:00:39]

They spoke about the red man's way how they loved the land [00:00:47]

And they came from everywhere to the Great Divide[00:00:55]

Seeking a place to stand or a place to hide [00:01:02]

Down in the crowded bars out for a good time [00:01:12]

Can't wait to tell you all what it's like up there [00:01:19]

And they called it paradise I don't know why [00:01:27]

Somebody laid the mountains low while the town got high [00:01:34]

Then the chilly winds blew down across the desert [00:02:06]

Through the canyons of the coast to the Malibu[00:02:14]

Where the pretty people play hungry for power[00:02:21]

To light their neon way and give them things to do [00:02:29]

Some rich man came and raped the land nobody caught them [00:02:38]

Put up a bunch of ugly boxes and Jesus people bought them [00:02:46]

And they called it paradise the place to be [00:02:53]

We watched the hazy sun sinking in the sea [00:03:01]

You can leave it all behind and sail to Lahaina[00:04:01]

Just like the missionaries did so many years ago [00:04:08]

They even brought a neon sign 'Jesus is Coming' [00:04:15]

Brought the white man's burden down brought the white man's reign [00:04:23]

Who will provide the grand design what is yours and what is mine [00:04:30]

'Cause there is no more new frontier we have got to make it here [00:04:38]

We satisfy our endless needs and justify our bloody deeds[00:04:45]

In the name of destiny and in the name of God [00:04:53]

And you can see them there on Sunday morning[00:05:03]

Stand up and sing about what it's like up there [00:05:09]

They called it paradise I don't know why [00:05:17]

You call some place paradise - kiss it goodbye[00:05:25]
