My Back Pages - Roger McGuinn

[00:00.000] 作词 : Bob Dylan
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Bob Dylan
[00:12.95]Crimson flames tied through my ears
[00:16.01]Rollin’ high and mighty traps
[00:19.99]Pounced with fire on flaming roads
[00:23.42]Using ideas as my maps
[00:27.32]“We’ll meet on edges, soon,” said I
[00:30.88]Proud ’neath heated brow
[00:34.26]Ah, but I was so much older then
[00:38.26]I’m younger than that now
[00:41.26]
[00:44.57]Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth
[00:47.67]“Rip down all hate,” I screamed
[00:51.91]Lies that life is black and white spoke from my skull. I dreamed
[00:58.90]Romantic facts of musketeers
[01:02.14]Foundationed deep, somehow
[01:05.86]Ah, but I was so much older then
[01:09.66]I’m younger than that now
[01:13.60]
[01:15.63]Girls’ faces formed the forward path
[01:19.26]From phony jealousy
[01:22.80]To memorizing politics of ancient history
[01:30.26]Flung down by corpse evangelists
[01:33.71]Unthought of, though, somehow
[01:37.25]Ah, but I was so much older then
[01:40.92]I’m younger than that now
[01:44.28]
[02:19.39]A self-ordained professor’s tongue
[02:22.42]Too serious to fool
[02:26.22]Spouted out that liberty
[02:29.32]Is just equality in school
[02:33.07]
[02:33.52]“Equality,” I spoke the word“
[02:37.45]As if a wedding vow
[02:39.89]
[02:40.69]Ah, but I was so much older then
[02:44.25]
[02:44.55]I’m younger than that now
[02:47.43]
[02:50.79]In a soldier’s stance, I aimed my hand
[02:53.67]At the mongrel dogs who teach
[02:57.87]Fearing not that I’d become my enemy
[03:01.13]In the instant that I preach
[03:05.06]My pathway led by confusion boats
[03:08.64]Mutiny from stern to bow
[03:12.21]Ah, but I was so much older then
[03:16.02]I’m younger than that now
[03:18.84]
[03:24.32]Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats
[03:25.92]Too noble to neglect
[03:29.49]Deceived me into thinking
[03:31.77]I had something to protect
[03:36.62]Good and bad, I define these terms
[03:40.20]Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
[03:43.60]Ah, but I was so much older then
[03:47.42]I’m younger than that now
[03:50.74]
