歌曲名 Quietly Making Noise (Album Version) 歌手名 Jimmy Buffett

Oscar wilde died in bed

Several floors above my head

Living well beyond his means

In that crazy paris scene

Rain falls down in sheets so clear

And no one ever calls me hear

I'm into jazz and felt berets

Travelin' by myself these days

Far from that old eastern shore

Searchin' for strange metaphors

I don't want to be another victim of fashion

No I don't want to see my

Name in the paper each day

Hey you can leave that to the young turks

They're handsome and dashing

Posing for paparazzi's down laguna way

Now down in the metro

I feel the world start to multiply

Bastille rubber wheels spiked heels

Subterranean lullaby

Met an african prancer a hemisphere dancer

Spied the ghost of brassens

We smiled at the secret we shared

And I hid it like contraband

Quietly making noise (quietly making noise)

Starts with kindergarten toys

Not too soft not too loud

Just enough to draw a crowd

Quietly quietly quietly making noise

Followed the beat

Hey I found myself in this patois spot

Outside a blizzard was blowin'

But inside the joint was hot

Zouk songs rubber thongs sing-a-longs

The words flew right by my face

You know rhythm and motion's

A blamma jamma potion

You cannot erase

Quietly making noise (quietly making noise)

Pissin' off the old kill-joys

Glasspacks on an hot mustang

A telecaster with a twang

Quietly quietly quietly making noise

Yes

Singers and writers and poets

Have flocked here for centuries

The city of light is built upon mountains of memories

Baritone saxophones monotones

Speak with a voice I've heard before

It's a lasting impression

A gypsy expression you cannot ignore

We're quietly making noise (quietly making noise)

Starts with kindergarten toys

Not too soft not too loud

Just enough to draw a crowd

Quietly quietly quietly making noise

Yeah we're quietly making noise

(quietly making noise)

Pissin' off the old kill-joys

Not too soft not too loud

Just enough to draw a crowd

We're quietly quietly quietly

Quietly quietly quietly

Quietly quietly quietly making noise

That's right ooh yeah

A whole lot of beautiful noise

oh come on children play those

Play those kindergarten toys

Everybody's a drummer tonight

All right let it ring now

let It ring
