[00:24.223] Oh my love
[00:30.351] My sweet love
[00:34.933] How your kiss lingers strange on my lips
[00:45.464] The faint stench of hay
[00:51.847] Remnants of clay
[00:56.241] That rash on your head
[00:58.674] Peanuts in bed
[01:00.426] It strikes me odd
[01:02.915] So very clear
[01:11.845] I sense there is something
[01:17.747] A miss
[01:25.214]
[01:27.042] I was in love
[01:29.916] Mendel the magnificent
[01:33.244] He was the circuses resident knife thrower
[01:36.539] Strong man and large mammal care taker
[01:39.471] Big handsome not too bright
[01:42.801] He was perfect
[01:46.231] I love the thrill of being strapped to his target
[01:49.607] Knifes piercing the wood all around me
[01:52.585] The intensity of his concentration
[01:54.688] Boring right into me
[01:57.518]
[01:58.602] On stage we where naturals
[02:00.894] Daring and delicate
[02:02.701] Daggers and velvet
[02:04.528] A breath taking sight
[02:06.410] With tragedy always just inches away
[02:10.309] Our love guided blades hit just right
[02:13.958]
[02:20.160] Then one day I noticed a hint of indifference in Mendel
[02:25.357] He stopped throwing his knifes as close into me as usual
[02:29.226] And a woman can notice the details you know?
[02:32.764] He was lingering late at the large mammal tent every night
[02:36.722] I knew he had found another
[02:41.220] That greasy lying bastard
[02:47.083] Why would he do it?
[02:48.687] Why would he throw away our love
[02:51.801] Our life, our act
[02:54.571] How could he have possibly found somebody more appealing than me
[03:00.844] How careless ungrateful and wrong could he be
[03:04.768] To destroy what we had for some tryst in a tent
[03:08.767] The was nobody in town half as charming as me
[03:12.611] So I followed him to see where he went
[03:16.778] As I snuck behind the flapping canvas
[03:25.027] The sight I saw was cause for alarm
[03:31.554] Mendel in an elephants arms
[03:38.234]
[03:50.083] Suddenly it all made sense
[03:55.901] The stench, the peanuts
[04:00.023] How he wouldn't shut up about what a great specimen she was
[04:04.392] Always giving her extra hay
[04:08.671] I remember the way she looked at him when he hosed her down
[04:12.794] Balancing on the stool just right
[04:15.922] Swinging her tail at him in that way
[04:21.594] Oh I should have known
[04:23.630] It was all so bestial and humiliating
[04:29.693] A woman‘s scorn is one thing
[04:33.435] But losing out to a saggy, rough skinned, over weight,
[04:40.929] forty pounds of dung a day, subjugated zoo species
[04:48.940] The geometry staggering
[04:51.169] How does he manage,
[04:53.035] he‘s hung like a horse but not elephant size
[04:56.872] He must need assistance to cover the distance
[05:00.804] Does he crawl in and rub on the sides
[05:04.449] You can never mend a heart so trampled
[05:12.704] There‘s nothing left for me to do
[05:19.470] His affair will be through
[05:22.915]
[05:27.435] Oh my love
[05:37.672] My sweet love
[05:40.451] How your kiss lingers strange on my lips
歌词翻译
[00:24.223] 哦 我的爱
[00:30.351] 我甜蜜的爱人
[00:34.933] 你的吻为何在我唇间留下异样触感
[00:45.464] 干草的淡淡腥膻
[00:51.847] 黏土的残余痕迹
[00:56.241] 你额头的疹斑
[00:58.674] 床榻的花生碎屑
[01:00.426] 令我感到古怪
[01:02.915] 如此清晰可辨
[01:11.845] 我察觉到有些
[01:17.747] 不对劲
[01:25.214]
[01:27.042] 我曾深爱着
[01:29.916] 神奇的孟德尔
[01:33.244] 他是马戏团首席飞刀手
[01:36.539] 大力士兼大型哺乳动物饲养员
[01:39.471] 英俊魁梧却不聪明
[01:42.801] 他完美无缺
[01:46.231] 我痴迷被绑在靶标上的战栗
[01:49.607] 飞刀扎进周身木板的声响
[01:52.585] 他全神贯注时
[01:54.688] 灼热凝视我的目光
[01:57.518]
[01:58.602] 舞台上我们浑然天成
[02:00.894] 惊险又精妙
[02:02.701] 匕首与天鹅绒共舞
[02:04.528] 令人屏息的景象
[02:06.410] 悲剧总在咫尺之遥
[02:10.309] 爱意指引的刀锋从不失手
[02:13.958]
[02:20.160] 直到某天我察觉孟德尔的疏离
[02:25.357] 他的飞刀不再像往常贴近我的身躯
[02:29.226] 女人总能注意到细节 你明白吗?
[02:32.764] 每夜他都在大型兽棚流连忘返
[02:36.722] 我知道他另有所爱
[02:41.220] 那个油嘴滑舌的混蛋
[02:47.083] 为何要这样?
[02:48.687] 为何要抛弃我们的爱情
[02:51.801] 我们的生活 我们的表演
[02:54.571] 他怎可能找到比我更迷人的存在
[03:00.844] 如此粗鄙忘恩负义
[03:04.768] 竟为帐篷里的苟且毁掉我们的一切
[03:08.767] 全镇找不出比我更风情万种的人
[03:12.611] 于是我尾随他探寻真相
[03:16.778] 当我潜行至翻动的帆布后方
[03:25.027] 眼前的景象令人惊惶
[03:31.554] 孟德尔竟在大象的怀抱中
[03:38.234]
[03:50.083] 突然间一切都有了解释
[03:55.901] 腥膻味 花生碎
[04:00.023] 他总喋喋不休夸赞她是完美标本
[04:04.392] 永远给她额外干草
[04:08.671] 我忘不了他冲洗她时 她凝望他的眼神
[04:12.794] 精准踩着木凳平衡
[04:15.922] 用尾巴朝他暧昧摆动
[04:21.594] 我早该察觉
[04:23.630] 这野蛮又屈辱的恋情
[04:29.693] 女人的怒火尚可承受
[04:33.435] 但败给皮肤松弛 体型臃肿
[04:40.929] 日排四十磅粪便的驯养物种
[04:48.940] 尺寸对比令人眩晕
[04:51.169] 他究竟如何做到
[04:53.035] 虽天赋异禀却非大象量级
[04:56.872] 定需辅助才能跨越距离
[05:00.804] 莫非是爬进去蹭动侧腹
[05:04.449] 被践踏的心永难愈合
[05:12.704] 我已无计可施
[05:19.470] 这段孽缘必须终结
[05:22.915]
[05:27.435] 哦 我的爱
[05:37.672] 我甜蜜的爱人
[05:40.451] 你的吻为何在我唇间留下异样触感
