The Sacred Scrolls Of Pop - Henry Priestman (亨利·普里斯特曼)[00:00:00]

Oh I went down to Memphis to[00:00:26]

See what had become[00:00:29]

Of those little works of art[00:00:32]

That hung out there at the sun[00:00:34]

And I hit the Motor city[00:00:36]

I was looking for the scene[00:00:39]

Of the sound of soul that[00:00:41]

Helped to fuel a million teenage dreams[00:00:43]

Oh[00:00:46]

Nobody could help me[00:00:47]

They said they were all lost[00:00:49]

To the bureaucrats and bean counters[00:00:51]

That only count the cost[00:00:54]

No one could save me[00:00:57]

They said it was too late[00:00:58]

But I'll keep on keeping on[00:01:01]

Until I reach heaven's gate[00:01:04]

Oh I'm looking around[00:01:06]

But I ain't hit the spot[00:01:09]

I need three minutes now[00:01:11]

That'll make my heart stop[00:01:14]

Oh so tell me that it's too late[00:01:16]

It's a race against the clock[00:01:19]

But I'm still looking around[00:01:21]

I'm searching for the sacred scrolls of pop[00:01:24]

Looking looking[00:01:27]

Gonna keep on looking[00:01:31]

So I sail on down the Mersey[00:01:36]

To fee that beating heart[00:01:38]

But I had to wade through heritage[00:01:41]

Before my trip could start[00:01:44]

Yet in the highlands and the valleys[00:01:46]

In the urban sprawl and smoke[00:01:49]

There's a torch held high and shining[00:01:51]

And while it burns there's still hope[00:01:54]

Oh I'm looking around[00:01:56]

But I ain't hit the spot[00:01:59]

I've done thirty years now[00:02:01]

There's no way I can stop[00:02:03]

Oh so tell me that it's too late[00:02:06]

It's a race against the clock[00:02:08]

But I keep looking around[00:02:11]

I'm searching for the sacred scrolls of pop[00:02:14]

Some say they crashed and burned[00:02:17]

They met a sorry end[00:02:20]

But I believe they're out there[00:02:22]

And they will be found again[00:02:25]

I hear an old guitar[00:02:27]

And a battered tambourine[00:02:30]

Someone blowing harp and I feel I'm seventeen[00:02:32]

Again[00:02:36]

Oh I'm looking around[00:02:46]

But I ain't hit the spot[00:02:48]

I need three minutes now[00:02:51]

That'll make my heart stop[00:02:53]

Oh so tell me that it's too late[00:02:56]

It's a race against the clock[00:02:58]

But I keep looking around[00:03:00]

Yeah I'm looking around[00:03:03]

But I ain't hit the spot[00:03:08]

I've done thirty years now[00:03:11]

There's no way I can stop[00:03:13]

Oh so tell me that it's too late[00:03:15]

It's a race against the clock[00:03:18]

But I keep looking around[00:03:20]

I'm searching for the sacred scrolls of pop[00:03:23]

Looking looking[00:03:27]

Gonna keep on looking[00:03:30]

Looking looking[00:03:32]

Gonna keep on searching[00:03:35]

Looking[00:03:38]

Gonna keep on looking[00:03:40]
