The Female of the Species (feat. Joe Bethancourt) - Leslie Fish/Joe Bethancourt.mp3

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Leslie Fish
[00:11.627]When the Himallayan peasent meets the he-bear in his pride
[00:16.530]He shouts to scare the monster who will often turn aside
[00:20.665]But the she-bear thus accosted wrends the peasent tooth and nail
[00:26.334]For the female of the species is more deadly than the male
[00:34.453]When Nog, the basking cobra hears the careless foot of man
[00:38.972]He will sometimes wriggle sideways and avoid it if he can
[00:43.176]But his mate makes no such motion where she camps beside the trail
[00:48.887]For the female of the species is more deadly than the male
[00:56.721]When the early Jesuit fathers preached to Heurons and Chaktaws
[01:01.186]They prayed to be delivered from the vengence of the sqaws
[01:05.724]Twas the women not the warriors turn those stark enthusiasts pale
[01:11.285]For the female of the species is more deadly than the male
[01:19.390]Man's timid heart is bursting with the things he must not say
[01:23.590]For the woman that god gave him isn't his to give away
[01:28.052]But when hunter meets with husband, each confirms the other's tale
[01:33.696]That the female of his species is more deadly than the male
[01:41.640]Man, a bear in most relations, worm and savage otherwise
[01:46.155]Man propounds negotiations, man accepts the compromise
[01:50.599]Very rarely will he squarely push the logic of a fact
[01:56.324]To its ultimate conclusion in unmitigated act
[02:04.225]But the woman that God gave him, every fiber of her frame
[02:08.627]Proves her launched for one sole issue, armed and engined for the same
[02:13.103]And to serve that single issue, lest the generations fail
[02:18.923]The female of the species must be deadlier than the male
[02:26.378]She who faces death by turture for each life beneith her breast
[02:31.039]May not deal in dought or pity, must not swerve or fact or jest
[02:35.488]These are purely male diversions, not in these her honor dwells
[02:41.110]She, the other law they live by is that law and nothing else
[02:49.060]She is wedded to convictions, in default of grosser ties
[02:53.471]Her contentions are her children, heaven help him who denies
[02:58.031]He will meet no suave discussion but the instant white-hot wild
[03:03.627]Wakened female of the species, warring as for spouse and child
[03:11.426]So it comes that man, the coward, when he gathers to confer
[03:15.960]With his fellow braves in council, dare not leave a place for her
[03:20.394]Where at war with life and conscience, he uplifts his erring hands
[03:26.150]To some of abstract justice which no woman understands
[03:38.404]And man knows it, knows moreover that the woman that God gave him
[03:42.919]Must command but may not govern, shall enthrall but not enslave him
[03:47.450]And she knows because she warns him and her instincts never fail
[03:53.000]That the female of her species is more deadly than the male
