[ti:Soliloquy] [ar:John Raitt] [al:Carousel (The Original Broadway Recordings)] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Soliloquy (神々が恋した幻想郷) - John Raitt/Chorus [00:10.13]I wonder what he'll think of me [00:13.63] [00:14.28]I guess he'll call me the old man [00:18.24] [00:18.77]I guess he'll think I can lick [00:21.03]Every other feller's father [00:23.55]Well I can [00:27.32] [00:29.52]I bet that he'll turn out to be [00:32.91] [00:33.53]The spitting image of his dad [00:37.99]But he'll have more common sense [00:40.60]Than his pudding headed father ever had [00:45.59]I'll teach him to wrestle [00:47.21]And dive through a wave [00:48.29]When we go in the morning's for our swim [00:50.57] [00:51.15]His mother can teach him [00:52.71]The way to behave [00:53.90]But she won't make a sissy out him [00:56.27] [00:57.35]Not him [00:58.74] [00:59.41]Not my boy [01:01.88]Not Bill [01:05.07] [01:11.29]My boy Bill [01:12.69]I will see that he is named after me [01:15.94] [01:16.80]I will [01:17.77] [01:19.32]My boy Bill [01:20.59]He'll be tall [01:21.68]And he's tough as a tree will Bill [01:26.06]Like a tree he'll grow [01:28.47]With his head held high [01:30.40]And his feet planted firm [01:32.58]On the ground [01:33.92] [01:34.64]And you won't see nobody dare to try [01:38.47]Boss him or toss him around [01:41.13] [01:41.84]No pot-bellied baggy-eyed bully [01:45.04]Will boss him around [01:47.95] [01:50.00]I don't give a hang what he does [01:51.69] [01:52.28]As long as he does what he likes [01:53.68] [01:54.29]He can sit on his tail [01:55.32]Or work on a rail [01:56.24]With a hammer [01:56.95]Hammering spikes [01:59.10]He can ferry a boat on a river [02:00.98]Or peddle a pack on his back [02:02.87]Or work up and down [02:04.00]The streets of a town [02:05.04]With a whip and a horse and a hack [02:06.62] [02:07.13]He can haul a scow along a canal [02:09.30] [02:09.89]Run a cow around a corral [02:12.14] [02:12.71]Or maybe bark for a carousel [02:15.83] [02:16.58]Of course it takes talent to do that well [02:23.07] [02:24.30]He might be a champ of the heavyweights [02:26.32]Or a feller that sells you glue [02:28.25]Or President of the United States [02:30.96] [02:31.68]That'd be all right too [02:34.80]His mother would like that [02:36.23] [02:36.76]But he wouldn't be President [02:37.84]If he didn't wanna be [02:39.39]Not Bill [02:40.09] [02:41.80]My boy Bill [02:42.98]He'll be tall [02:44.04]And as tough as a tree will Bill [02:47.86] [02:48.78]Like a tree he'll grow [02:50.89]With his head held high [02:52.69]And his feet planted firm [02:54.64]On the ground [02:56.63]And you won't see nobody dare to try [03:00.24] [03:00.93]To boss him or toss him around [03:03.44] [03:04.09]No fat-bottomed flabby-faced [03:06.62]Pot-bellied baggy-eyed bully [03:09.11]Will boss him around [03:11.44] [03:15.88]And I'm hanged [03:16.49]If he'll marry his bosses' daughter [03:18.93]A skinny-lipped virgin with blood like water [03:21.84]Who'll give him a peck [03:22.93]And call it a kiss [03:24.40]And look in his eyes through a lorgnette [03:27.23] [03:28.76]Hey why am I taking on like this [03:32.49] [03:33.23]My kid ain't even been born yet [03:35.38] [03:36.61]I can see him when he's seventeen or so [03:41.47] [03:42.08]And starting and to go with a girl [03:45.92] [03:47.71]I can give him lots of pointers [03:50.56]Very sound [03:52.04] [03:52.71]On the way to get around any girl [03:57.81] [03:59.44]I can tell him [04:01.36] [04:02.62]Wait a minute [04:03.77] [04:05.05]Could it be [04:06.03] [04:07.24]What the hell [04:08.08] [04:09.26]What if [04:09.68] [04:10.20]What if he is a girl [04:12.07] [04:16.86]What would I do with her [04:18.39] [04:19.16]What could I do for her [04:20.67] [04:21.77]A bum with no money [04:23.47] [04:24.67]You can have fun with a son [04:27.02]But you gotta be a father to a girl [04:33.69] [04:36.09]She mightn't be so bad at that [04:39.15] [04:39.85]A kid with ribbons in her hair [04:43.54] [04:44.33]A kind of sweet and petite [04:46.45]Little tin-type of her mother [04:48.81] [04:49.45]What a pair [04:52.52] [04:56.58]When I have a daughter [04:58.22]I'll stand around in barrooms [05:00.08] [05:00.82]Oh how I'll boast and blow [05:03.53] [05:04.86]Friends will see me coming [05:06.70]And they'll empty all the barrooms [05:08.68] [05:30.29]My little girl [05:31.29] [05:32.81]Pink and white [05:34.53]As peaches and cream is she [05:39.48] [05:40.16]My little girl [05:41.52] [05:42.15]Is half again as bright [05:44.99] [05:45.76]As girls are meant to be [05:49.51] [05:51.08]Dozens of boys pursue her [05:55.44] [05:55.97]Many a likely lad does [06:00.16] [06:01.02]Was what he can to woo her [06:05.94]From her faithful dad [06:11.02] [06:11.76]She has a few [06:13.11] [06:14.01]Pink and white young fellers [06:17.18]Of two or three [06:20.84] [06:21.43]But my little girl [06:23.40] [06:24.49]Gets hungry every night [06:28.28] [06:28.90]And she comes home to me [06:36.39] [06:41.58]I got to get ready before she comes [06:45.15]I got to make certain that she [06:47.47] [06:48.27]Won't be dragged up in slums [06:50.26]With a lot of bums like me [06:53.83] [06:55.44]She's got to be sheltered [06:57.28]And best and dressed [06:58.93]In the best that money can buy [07:02.43]I never knew how to get money [07:05.60]But I'll try buy [07:08.13]But I'll try [07:11.69]I'll go out and make it or steal it [07:16.54]Or take it or die
