Harps And Angels - Randy Newman (兰迪·纽曼)[00:00:00]

Hasn't anybody seen me lately[00:00:12]

I'll tell you why[00:00:15]

Hasn't anybody seen me lately[00:00:21]

I'll tell you why[00:00:25]

I caught something made me so sick[00:00:31]

That I thought that I would die[00:00:34]

And I almost did too[00:00:37]

First me knees begin to tremble[00:00:40]

My heart begin to pound[00:00:44]

First my knees begin to tremble[00:00:50]

My heart begin to pound[00:00:54]

It was arrhythmic and out of tune[00:00:57]

I lost my equilibrium[00:01:02]

And fell face down upon the ground[00:01:05]

As I lay there on that cold pavement[00:01:12]

A tear ran down my face[00:01:15]

'Cause I thought I was dying[00:01:18]

You boys know I'm not a religious man[00:01:21]

But I sent a prayer out just in case[00:01:24]

You never know[00:01:28]

Lo and behold almost immediately[00:01:31]

I had reason to believe my prayer had[00:01:33]

Been heard in a very special place[00:01:35]

'Cause I heard this sound[00:01:38]

Yes[00:01:43]

Yes it was harps and angels[00:01:49]

Harps and angels coming near[00:01:53]

I was to sick to roll over and see them[00:01:58]

But I could hear them singin ever so beautifully[00:02:00]

In my ear[00:02:02]

Then the sound began to subside[00:02:06]

And they sounded like background singers[00:02:08]

And a voice come down from the heavens above[00:02:10]

It was a voice full of anger from the Old Testament[00:02:14]

And a voice full of love from the New One[00:02:18]

And the street lit up like it was the middle of the day[00:02:20]

And I lay there quiet and listened to what that[00:02:25]

Voice had to say[00:02:26]

He said "You ain't ben a good man[00:02:28]

You ain't been a bad man[00:02:33]

But you've been pretty bad[00:02:36]

Lucky for you this ain't your time[00:02:40]

Someone very dear to me has made another clerical error[00:02:44]

And we're here on a bit of a wild goose chase[00:02:48]

But I want to tell you a few things[00:02:51]

That'll hold you in good stead when it is your time[00:02:53]

So you better listen close[00:02:55]

I'm only going to say this once[00:02:56]

When they lay you on the table[00:02:59]

Better keep your bussines clean[00:03:02]

'Fore they lay you on the table[00:03:08]

Better keep your business clean[00:03:12]

Don't want no back stabbing a** grabbing[00:03:18]

You know exactly what I mean[00:03:20]

Alright girls - we're outta here"[00:03:24]

"Encore Encore "[00:03:31]

(He spoke French)[00:03:33]

"Tres bien Encore"[00:03:36]

And off they went into the night[00:03:41]

Almost immediately I felt better[00:03:45]

And I come round to see you boys[00:03:47]

'Cause you know we ain't living right[00:03:49]

And while it was fresh[00:03:50]

I wanted to tell you what he told me[00:03:52]

He said "When the lay you on the table[00:03:55]

Better keep your business clean[00:03:59]

When they lay you on the table[00:04:06]

Better keep your business clean[00:04:09]

Else there won't be no harps and angels[00:04:15]

Coming for you[00:04:17]

It'll be trombones kettle drums pitchforks [00:04:19]

And tambourines "[00:04:21]

Sing it like they did for me one time[00:04:24]

Yes[00:04:29]

Beautiful[00:04:32]

Wish I spoke French[00:04:33]

So actually the main thing about this story is for me[00:04:38]

There really is an afterlife[00:04:45]

And I hope to see all of you there[00:04:48]

Let's go get a drink[00:04:54]
