cannonandtheboxes - the love song of j. afred prufrock كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
let us go then, you and i
when the evening is spread out against the sky
like a patient etherized upon a table;
let us go, through certain half-deserted streets
the muttering retreats
of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels
and sawdust restaurants with oyster-sh-lls:
streets that follow like a tedious argument
of insidious intent

[bridge]
to lead you to an overwhelming question …
oh, do not ask, “what is it?”
let us go and make our visit

[chorus]
in the room the women come and go
talking of michelangelo

[verse 2]
and indeed there will be time
for the yellow smoke that slides
rubbing its back upon the window-pane;
there will be time, oh, there will be time
to murder and create
to lift and drop a question on your plate;
for a hundred indecisions
and a hundred more revisions

[chorus]
in the room the women come and go
talking of michelangelo

[verse 3]
and indeed there will be time
to wonder, “do i dare?”
“do i dare?” it’s time to turn back and descend the stair
with a bald spot in the middle of my hair —
and my morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin
(still they will say: “but how his arms and legs are thin!”)
do i dare
disturb the universe?
for decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse

[bridge]
and to lead you to an overwhelming question …
oh, do not ask, “what is it?”
let us go and make our visit

[chorus]
in the room women come and go
talking of michelangelo

[verse 4]
shall i part my hair behind? do i dare to eat a peach?
i shall wear white flannel trousers on the beach
i have heard the mermaids singing, each to each
i don’t think that they will sing to me
i’m no prophet — and here’s no great matter;
i have seen the moment of my greatness fl!cker
and i have seen the eternal footman hold my coat, and snicker

[bridge]
to lead you to an overwhelming question …
oh, do not ask, “what is it?”
let us go and make our visit

[chorus]
in the room women come and go
talking of michelangelo
