Tripwire (一触即发) - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)/The Roots[00:00:00]

Just because you don't speak the language[00:00:09]

Doesn't mean that you can't understand[00:00:13]

Just because you don't speak the language[00:00:16]

Doesn't mean that you can't understand[00:00:22]

The twist in the script of the insult[00:00:25]

Scrawled on the back of your hand[00:00:31]

Torn from the pages of scripture[00:00:36]

Sprayed on the wall in the frays of a flag[00:00:40]

Kisses forbidden on lips[00:00:45]

And all of your fine clothes worn into rags[00:00:49]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:00:54]

There's a tripwire[00:01:03]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:01:05]

Don't open the door 'cos they're coming[00:01:12]

Don't open the door 'cos they're here[00:01:16]

Above there's an ominous humming[00:01:20]

Below there's a murmur of prayer[00:01:25]

Torn from the pages of scandal[00:01:30]

Sprayed on a wall in the frays of the flag[00:01:34]

Kisses forbidden on lips[00:01:39]

And all of your fine clothes blown into rags[00:01:43]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:01:48]

There's a tripwire[00:01:57]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:01:59]

There's a cross in the line there's a circus[00:02:06]

There's a voice that you might overhear[00:02:10]

There's a lens making the picture perfect[00:02:15]

They say you have nothing to fear[00:02:19]

Torn from the pages of pamphlets[00:02:24]

Thrown in the air like confetti in church[00:02:28]

Far far away there's a target[00:02:33]

And the sound of an army just starting to march[00:02:37]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:02:42]

There's a tripwire[00:02:51]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:02:53]

Just because I don't read the language[00:03:00]

Doesn't mean that I'm blind to the threat[00:03:04]

Though I thought there was more to forgiveness[00:03:09]

Than all we conveniently forget[00:03:13]

Torn from the pages of history[00:03:18]

Repeated again and again and again[00:03:22]

You're either for or against us[00:03:27]

And that is how the hatred begins[00:03:31]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:03:36]

There's a tripwire[00:03:44]

Tripwire tripwire tripwire[00:03:47]
