Preservation - The Kinks (奇想合唱团)[00:00:00]
Written by:Ray Davies[00:00:00]
Once upon a time[00:00:39]
In a faraway land[00:00:41]
Lived a villain called flash[00:00:43]
He was such a wicked man[00:00:45]
He terrorized the people[00:00:47]
He broke arms and crushed hands[00:00:50]
He ruled with a fist and he purchased all the land[00:00:52]
Then he plowed up the fields and cut down the trees[00:00:56]
For property speculation[00:01:01]
And he did it all for a pot of gold[00:01:05]
And for his own preservation[00:01:10]
The people were scared[00:01:15]
They didn't know where to turn[00:01:17]
They couldn't see any salvation[00:01:19]
From the hoods and the spivs[00:01:24]
And the crooked politicians[00:01:26]
Who were cheating and lying to the nation[00:01:28]
Save the fields and the trees[00:01:35]
And give them back to the nation[00:01:37]
Bring the government down[00:01:42]
A new leader must be found[00:01:44]
For the sake of preservation[00:01:47]
He said he did it to help us all[00:01:51]
And did it for the good of the nation[00:01:55]
But he did it for a pot of gold[00:02:00]
And for his own preservation[00:02:05]
Preservation preservation preservation[00:02:23]
When money is evil[00:02:54]
And power is corrupt[00:02:56]
The devil moves in and takes over[00:02:59]
Mr flash broke his word[00:03:03]
And now hes got to pay[00:03:05]
For his crimes and his lies and his evil ways[00:03:08]
And its gonna get rough[00:03:14]
And its gonna get rough[00:03:19]
Its a crime and a sin that no one can win[00:03:21]
In a story of self preservation[00:03:25]
Preservation[00:03:29]
