joni mitchell - the jungle line (2022 remaster) كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
rousseau walks on trumpet paths
safaris to the heart of all that jazz
through i_bars and girders, through wires and pipes
the mathematic circuits of the modern nights
through huts, through harlem, through jails and gospel pews
through the class on park and the trash on vine
through europe and the deep, deep heart of dixie blue
through savage progress cuts the jungle line

[verse 2]
in a low_cut blouse she brings the beer
rousseau paints a jungle flower behind her ear
those cannibals of shuck and jive
they’ll eat a working girl like her alivе
with his hard_edged eyеs and his steady hand
he paints the cellar full of ferns and orchid vines
and he hangs a moon above a five_piece band
he hangs it up above the jungle line
[verse 3]
the jungle line, the jungle line
screaming in a ritual of sound and time
floating, drifting on the air_conditioned wind
and drooling for a taste of something smuggled in
pretty women funneled through valves and smoke
coy and b_tchy, wild and fine
and charging elephants and chanting slaving boats
charging, chanting down the jungle line

[verse 4]
there’s a poppy wreath on a soldier’s tomb
there’s a poppy snake in the dressing room
poppy poison, poppy tourniquet
it slithers away on brass like mouthpiece spit
and metal skin and ivory birds
go steaming up to rousseau’s vines
they go steaming up to brooklyn bridge
steaming, steaming, steaming up the jungle line

- joni mitchell
