Slouching Towards Bethlehem - Joni Mitchell (琼妮·米切尔)[00:00:00]
Turning and turning within the widening gyre[00:00:42]
The falcon cannot hear the falconer[00:00:52]
Things fall apart the center cannot hold[00:00:59]
And a blood dimmed tide is[00:01:08]
Loosed upon the world[00:01:11]
Nothing is sacred the ceremony sinks[00:01:18]
Innocence is drowned in anarchy[00:01:28]
The best lack conviction[00:01:35]
Given some time to think[00:01:41]
And the worst are full[00:01:44]
Of passion without mercy[00:01:46]
Surely some revelation is at hand[00:01:54]
Surely it's the second coming[00:02:00]
And the wrath has finally taken form[00:02:02]
For what is this rough beast [00:02:06]
It's hour come at last[00:02:08]
Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born[00:02:14]
Slouching towards[00:02:20]
Bethlehem to be born oh[00:02:21]
To be born[00:02:33]
Hoping and hoping as[00:02:48]
If by my weak faith[00:02:53]
The spirit of this world would heal and rise[00:02:57]
Vast are the shadows[00:03:04]
That straddle and strafe[00:03:10]
And struggle in the darkness[00:03:14]
Troubling my eyes[00:03:17]
Shaped like a lion[00:03:24]
It has the head of a man[00:03:29]
With a gaze as blank[00:03:33]
And pitiless as the sun[00:03:36]
And it's moving it's slow thighs[00:03:40]
Across the desert sands[00:03:46]
Through dark indignant reeling falcons[00:03:50]
Surely some revelation is at hand[00:04:00]
Surely it's the second coming[00:04:05]
And the wrath has finally taken form[00:04:07]
For what is this rough beast [00:04:11]
It's hour come at last[00:04:14]
Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born[00:04:19]
Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born[00:04:25]
Oh oh yeah[00:04:29]
Hey hey Bethlehem[00:04:32]
Shape of a lion[00:04:47]
Raging and raging it rises from the deep[00:04:53]
Opening it's eyes after twenty centuries[00:05:03]
Vexed to a nightmare[00:05:10]
Out of a stony sleep[00:05:15]
By a rocking cradle[00:05:19]
By the sea of Galilee[00:05:22]
Surely some revelation is at hand[00:05:29]
Surely it's the second coming[00:05:35]
And the wrath has finally taken form[00:05:37]
For what is this rough beast [00:05:40]
It's hour come at last[00:05:43]
Slouching towards Bethlehem to be born[00:05:49]
Slouching towards Bethlehem[00:05:54]
To be born oh oh yeah[00:05:56]
Hey shape of a lion oh oh[00:06:03]
Just the shape of a lion[00:06:16]
Hey Bethlehem[00:06:24]
Shape of a lion[00:06:28]
