作曲 : Sun City Girls |
| [00:00.300] |
In the land of the damned with fake thick skin like bark |
| [00:05.210] |
The children were jeering a boy in the park |
| [00:11.153] |
Blind in one eye from the day he was born |
| [00:16.202] |
It was common for all one-eyed boys to be scorned |
| [00:21.703] |
Hector cried from the children's cruel rejections |
| [00:26.842] |
And on top of that he had no depth perception |
| [00:32.779] |
They spit in his face and they gave him no pity |
| [00:38.299] |
But that was the way kids used to act in the city |
| [00:43.765] |
In a city without pity no one cries many tears |
| [00:49.207] |
And they always express way too much of their fears |
| [00:54.694] |
Through their anger which never gets bottled up inside |
| [01:00.142] |
While they gradually develop a tough enough hide |
| [01:06.199] |
Now, Chino was blind as a bat |
| [01:11.138] |
He had little or no use for a map |
| [01:15.718] |
To a city of light in which his sight was his touch |
| [01:20.709] |
And the children all loved him so much |
| [01:26.162] |
The extent of their love was eternal |
| [01:31.209] |
Growing out like a seed from a kernel |
| [01:37.169] |
In his presence they would be very nervous and faint |
| [01:42.701] |
For Chino was revered as a saint |
| [01:48.823] |
And Hector loved Chino so much Hector |
| [01:53.794] |
For Chino had a refined sense of touch |
| [01:59.316] |
He could pick a lock in the light of the moon |
| [02:04.928] |
And help all his friends rob the neighborhood's rooms |
| [02:10.432] |
They would cut him in for a part of the take |
| [02:15.998] |
Take him out! Live it up! Buy him steak |
| [02:21.988] |
To people with vision robbers all look the same |
| [02:27.189] |
But none of them suspected the red and white cane |
| [02:33.229] |
the boy with the red and white cane |
| [02:38.909] |
Life was smooth for his partners in crime |
| [02:44.057] |
With him they never feared facing time |
| [02:49.920] |
Their heists worked as smooth as a wheel and a cog |
| [02:55.291] |
And with loot that they took they bought a seeing eye dog |
| [03:00.944] |
One night on the fourth of July |
| [03:06.458] |
One-eyed Hector was so lonely he cried |
| [03:12.004] |
He wanted to go out that night and play |
| [03:17.609] |
But he didn't want to go alone to the fireworks display |
| [03:23.232] |
Now Chino felt sorry for Hector's great sadness |
| [03:28.828] |
And, perhaps to atone for his badness |
| [03:34.412] |
Chino went with him out to the old fairgrounds Chino |
| [03:39.993] |
Even if only to share with him the exploding sounds |
| [03:45.548] |
The tension in the air rose a full latin mile |
| [03:51.137] |
The brilliant display shone upon Hector's smile |
| [03:56.760] |
A rocket shot up like a drunken old fly |
| [04:02.328] |
And it came down and put out Hector's only good eye |
| [04:08.088] |
Hector and Chino strolled home hand in hand |
| [04:13.489] |
Two sad saints negating an unseen land |
| [04:19.073] |
Misfortune is strange: It can make people wise |
| [04:24.889] |
When they find out that if God is love -- love is blind |
