Leoncavallo: 歌劇《道化師》/第2幕: さあさあ、あんたがこんなに怖いとは本当に思ってもみなかった!

歌詞

Words and music by Bob Hartman Based on 1 Timothy 6:5, 2 Corinthians 11:13-15, 2 Timothy 4:3, Romans 16:17 It's not so hard to understand what people see in you You tell them it's okay to have their cake and eat it too You traded truth for Godless gain and no one will suspect You're such a clever counterfeit of all that you reject (Chorus) Pied piper, playin' the tune they want to hear Putting a tickle in their ear Pied piper, wanting them all to follow you Not know where you lead them too But all the time you're leading them astray The sheep just sit there grinning as they listen to your lies Never knowing when you pull the wool over their eyes You've got them trained to say "How high?" whenever you say "Jump!" And those who disagree with you, you always seem to stump You may not mean to harm a soul you say you're innocent But when the final tally comes, you made more than you spent You knew they'd have to pay the price for listening to you You knew before too long they'd have to pay the Piper too
