Spacesuits-David Roth

[00:00.000] 作词 : David Roth [00:01.000] 作曲 : David Roth [00:14.40]On the day we're born our soul is placed inside a special spacesuit [00:19.34]An amazing thing of flesh and bones, of fibers, tubes and cells [00:25.01]Each one a different shape and size, and many different colors [00:29.03]And it lets us move about the earth with other types of shells [00:34.32]Astounding as it seems, this suit is built to last a lifetime [00:38.78]Though the measure of a lifetime seems to change from soul to soul [00:44.00]Some will last for many years and others but a moment [00:48.92]But each suit has been assembled with a purpose and a goal [00:57.87]The control box of this special suit's located in three places [01:02.62]And at any given time there's always one that takes the lead [01:07.25]Causing all the other parts to follow blindly without question [01:12.39]As it tries to give the soul the things it needs [01:16.79]The head or brain will analyze environmental input [01:21.35]Using logic, rhyme and reason to devise the body's plan [01:26.91]The groin, much on the other hand, will travel on its instinct [01:32.30]Hooking one suit to another when it can [01:37.57]But somewhere in the middle lies the greatest, grandest feature [01:42.08]Often acting as the liaison, connecting part to part [01:47.40]It's the auricle of destiny, the pulse of life, the center [01:53.35]It's the thing we have in common called the heart [01:56.67]The heart, which does so many things, is molded by experience [02:10.28]It starts out very opened up and warm and soft and kind [02:15.03]Depending on the circumstance, it stays that way or changes [02:19.58]As it grapples with the groin and with the mind [02:24.42]The mind might try to hide the heart, the shrewd homo-erectus [02:28.52]Constructing extra layers of protection and defense [02:34.24]But often this gets in the way and doesn't help connect us [02:38.99]So the groin steps in to try and recompense [02:44.27]But somewhere in the middle lies the greatest, grandest feature [02:48.70]Often acting as the liaison, connecting part to part [02:53.09]It's the auricle of destiny, the pulse of life, the center [02:58.95]It's the thing we have in common called the heart [03:10.58]On the day we die, though I'm not sure, it's open for discussion [03:15.82]But I believe the spacesuit has fulfilled its Earthly chore [03:20.93]Providing home and shelter for the fragile human spirit [03:25.37]'Til the time when it's not needed any more [03:30.57]Then the soul will find another suit, it's kind of like recycling [03:35.78]And though the lessons of the mind and groin aren't lost along the route [03:41.59]It's when we've learned to speak and listen firstly from the heart [03:47.54]That our souls won't need these suits to move about [03:53.78]Somewhere in the middle lies the greatest, grandest feature [03:58.24]It's the auricle of destiny, connecting part to part [04:03.62]No sweeter music ever came from any kind of organ [04:10.04]As the one we have in common called the heart [04:46.90]
