Manhattan Transfer - Airegin слова песни

Wait`ll y`dig it on the map - Airegin
Spelled backwards
Really`re closin` up the gap - Airegin
Gone fac`wards
Back long time ago they saw a ghost
Ghost made a boast
Soon that ghost was host
(Repeat first 8 bars)

Those losing their hue
They goofed `n got the wrong view
First, things reverse, last is first!
Y` dig it!

Whatta` y` think o`that`n get a load a`
What I tell y`
What this place is no one knows it
There`s no traces of the kind o`place it was
Before it got "discovered" by the kind o`
Cat that knows the earth belongs t`him
Back when the world was young
An` man was a living god
An` he walked this earthly sod
This was sod that god would trod on
Till one day a stranger landed
With a line o`jive
Laid it on the natives till he had `em thinkin`
Maybe that they should really take five
An` he quickly stole the natives` soul
So he could control it
An` he took care of that missionary biz
Till the lan` was his

Never heard a story draggy as that
Tell th` truth I ain`t never heard another
That exasperated more
What an exasperating narrative t`play
Upon the sensitive and kindly soul that I am
`Way back when I was crawlin` in m`crib
I was doin` all kinds o`thinkin`
Aw`ready I had figured out the `cut of m`jib`
The kind o`soul that never liked t`tell `r live a fib
A body who was steadily reachin` up
A min` always thinkin` on high-minded things
Whee! I was always one t`be free
Ain`t never had a keeper why don`t people
Learn t`git along t`gether stead o`
Meddlin` aroun` `n fussin` with the fella nearest to `em
Me, I`m the old fashioned kind
I was never good at follow-the-leader
Real real real real real real real
That`s me, as real as a Yankee can be
That`s me

Millions o` years ago
There was a Paleolithic age on Earth
An` the whole world was young
And full o`the vim of constant rebirth
Brontosauruses `n dinosaurs `n pterodactyls
Ever`where abounding that was the case
`N plus the millions o` mammoths here `n there
An` in addition there were lots o`men everywhere
Who had no hi-tech and no intellect `nary a speck
But in that spot
Where it was so lush, where it was so hot
Where many animal was roamin`
An` nature was kind, life was thrivin`
There livin` was actual an` the feelin` was natural
I`m tellin` the truth
What-a-benign livin` some livin`
All`s forgiven come on home

Blew a truly unruly storm
That wrecked a boat in a climate warm
`N full o`ashy-colored cats all lookin`
White like ghosts
`N when the natives checked `em out
It blew `em away t`find that they resembled spirits
Long ago there was a legend
`Bout a spirit who would someday come

A look at these cats
`N y` could see they prob`ly had some
So they welcomed `em with peace and love
And everything there`s plenty of
`N soon the tables had turned to rigormortis
That`s when the castaway had his say
Like a dog had his day they told the
People that they were spirits actual
Y`see how perfectly a fable c`n be
Incorporated into what a cat`ll think is factual
What was an accident turns int` something
So unbelievably heaven-sent
Everybody falls for it
Right on down t` the militants
`N marchin` `n the martyrs `n the murder of Lumumba

Wait`ll y`dig it on the map - Airegin
Spelled backwards
Really`re closin` up the gap - Airegin
Gone fac`wards
Back long time ago they saw a ghost
Ghost made a boast
Soon that ghost was host

Wait`ll y`dig it on the map - Airegin
Spelled backwards
Really`re closin` up the gap - Airegin
Gone fac`wards

Those losing their hue
They goofed `n got the wrong view
First, things reverse, last is first!
Y` dig it!
