[00:00.00]Elf's Lament . - Michael Bublé (麦可·布雷)/Barenaked Ladies (裸体女郎乐队)
[00:12.17]I'm a man of reason and they say
[00:15.68]'Tis the season to be jolly
[00:18.34]But it's folly when you volley for position
[00:23.46]Never in existence has there been such a resistance
[00:28.38]To ideas meant to free us
[00:31.41]If you could see us then you'd listen
[00:34.87]Toiling through the ages making toys on garnished wages
[00:39.78]There's no union
[00:40.89]We're only through when we outdo the competition
[00:46.32]I make toys but I've got aspirations
[00:51.78]Make some noise
[00:55.38]Use your imagination
[00:57.72]Girls and boys before you wish for what you wish for
[01:04.33]There's a list for who's been
[01:06.32]Naughty or nice but consider the price to an elf
[01:11.93]A full indentured servitude can reflect on one's attitude
[01:17.31]But that silly red hat just makes the fat man look outrageous
[01:23.42]Absurd though it may seem you know
[01:25.74]I've heard there's even been illegal doping
[01:29.88]And though we're coping I just hope it's not contagious
[01:34.61]You try to start a movement and you think you see improvement
[01:39.70]But when thrown into the moment
[01:42.61]We just don't seem so courageous
[01:46.32]I make toys but I've got aspirations
[01:51.93]Make some noise
[01:55.30]Use your imagination
[01:57.73]Girls and boys before you wish for what you wish for
[02:04.26]There's a list for who's been
[02:06.39]Naughty or nice but consider the price to an elf
[02:09.79]You look at yourself
[02:10.90]You're an elf
[02:11.58]And the shelf is just filled with disappointing memories
[02:16.67]Trends come and go and your friends wanna know
[02:19.50]Why you aren't just happy making crappy little gizmos
[02:24.44]Every kid knows they'll just throw this stuff away
[02:30.64]We're used to repetition so we drew up a petition
[02:35.59]We the undersigned feel undermined
[02:38.68]Let's redefine employment
[02:41.90]We know that we've got leverage
[02:44.30]So we'll hand the fat man a beverage
[02:47.15]And sit back while we attack the utter lack of our enjoyment
[02:53.26]It may be tough to swallow but our threats are far from hollow
[02:58.08]He may thunder but if he blunders
[03:00.97]He may wonder where the toys went
[03:04.96]I make toys but I've got aspirations
[03:10.55]Make some noise
[03:13.80]Use your imagination
[03:16.17]Girls and boys before you wish for what you wish for
[03:22.47]There's a list for who's been
[03:24.56]Naughty or nice but consider the price
[03:27.54]Naughty or nice but consider the price
[03:30.45]Naughty or nice but consider the price to an elf
