歌曲名 Mamah Borthwick (A Sketch)

歌手名 Conor Oberst

作词：Conor Oberst

Just because you got it

You don't have to flaunt it

With an endless stream of famous men

Pretty as a portrait

Looked like mamah forthwith

On that shining brow of Taliesin

Someone might try and burn it down

So you'll have to put the fire out

Fortunes spent but that's

irrelevant to build something

That's sacred till the end

It cost twenty dollars to visit falling water

It's the perfect house where no one lives

Maybe someone once did but they got evicted

By a busload full of greedy tourists

And it would take a time machine

To fulfill all of my fantasies

'Cause a hidden dream

can be embarrassing

And the only thing

that's sacred till the end

Every time I tempt fate

There's a major earthquake

Heard the people scream as the ceiling fell

Every building damaged

Only one left standing

It was frank lloyd wright's imperial hotel

A rumination in my mind

Winding like the ramp at the Guggenheim

I'm not content

But I'm feeling hesitant

to build something

That's sacred till the end
