Kokoku-Laurie Anderson

I come very briefly to this place
I watch it move
I watch it shake
雲湧く山の 私の叫び 私の声を
勇者の故国 私はそこに 私は遊ぶ
They say the dead will rise again
And here they come now strange animals out of the Ice Age
And they stare at you dumbfounded like big mistakes
And we say
Keep cool
Maybe if we pretend this never happened they'll all just go away
私はそこに 私は遊ぶ 目を閉じ 目を閉じ
And yet we could all be wrong
聞くのは小鳥 私の叫び 私の声を
Wouldn't be the first time
雲湧く山の 私はそこに 私は遊ぶ
雲湧く山の 聞くのは小鳥 私の叫び
They say the world is smaller now
Small world
They say that man is taller now
Tall man
They say the stars are closer now
Thank you lucky stars
You come very briefly to this place
And on a very distant star slimy creatures scan the skies
They've got plates for hands
And telescopes for eyes
And they say
Look Down there A haunted planet spinning 'round
They say
Watch it move
Watch it shake
Watch it turn
私の叫び 私の声を 目を閉じ 目を閉じ
And shake
And we say
Watch us move
Watch us shake
We're so pretty
We're so pretty
We say
Watch us move now
Watch us shake
We're so pretty
Shake our hands
Shake our heads
We shake our feet
We're so fine
The way we move
The way we shake
We're so nice
