The Decemberists - Philomena

Текст песни

Oh Philomena, you in a tawdry gown
Lean to your window, let slip a ribbon down
And cure to your boredom
If only you’d let me go down
Down, down
Long summer days can lead to lazy vices
Boys all in idle, left to their own devices
Open up your linen lap
And let me go down
Down, down
All that I wanted in the world
Was just to live to see a naked girl
But I found I quickly bored
I wanted more, I wanted more
So I’ll be your candle and I’ll be your statuette
And I’ll be your lashing loop of leatherette
Oh Philomena, if only you’d let me go down
Down, down
All that I wanted in the world
Was just to live to see a naked girl
But I found, I quickly bored
I wanted more, oh, so much more
So I’ll be your candle and I’ll be your statuette
And I’ll be your lashing loop of leatherette
Oh Philomena, if only you’d let me go down
Down, down
Go down, down down
Go down, go down
