Lucinda Williams - Little Rock Star

卜超 制作

It's clear you have a death wish

And from what I hear, your latest dish

Lives for you and scares you half to death

You bend over backwards to make a statement

Hang from the rafters and lick the pavement

Split your lip and barely catch your breath

Your lovely eyes, they close like petals

Your sweet surprise could win you medals

You strut your stuff and fan your peacock feathers

Even if you fake it to get attention

Whatever it'll take to get them to listen

Piss on your designer boots and designer leathers

Hey Little Rock Star, what don't you see

This is not all that it's cracked up to be

And I can't say I blame you

For throwing the towel in or buying more fame

by cashing your chips in

But with all your talent, and so much to gain

To toss it away like that would be such a shame

Juvenile delinquent, misunderstood

Peter Pan and Robin Hood

Will you ever do the things you're afraid to do

Will you ever know happiness, Little Rock Star

Or is your death wish stronger than you are

Will you go up in flames like the torches

that are carried for you

Hey Little Rock Star, what don't you see

This is not all that it's cracked up to be

And I can't say I blame you

For throwing the towel in or buying more fame

by cashing your chips in

But with all your talent, and so much to gain

To toss it away like that would be such a shame
