Put on your sunday clothes [Wall-E]

听写了一下电影Wall-E开场曲Put on your sunday clothes的歌词,唤醒了好几个差点被我遗忘掉的单词。更让我有感触的是,本以为自己早对美音熟稔,没想听写起歌词来却错了好多细节(复数、惯词、时态)。其实这就是自己美音练得不纯的一个侧面反映。跟唱时与歌曲中Michael Crawford令人印象深刻的声音一对比,觉得更加惭愧。决心背下这歌,把细节的读音处理好,相当长见识。

Out there, there is a world outside of yonkers. Way out there, beyond this hick town Barnaby. There is a slick town Barnaby. Out there, full of shine and full of sparkle. Close your eyes and see it glisten, Barnaby. Listen, Barnaby. Put on your Sunday clothes there'a lots of world out there.Get out the briliantines and dime cigars. We're gonna find adventure in the evening air. Girls in white in a perfume night where the lights as bright as the stars. Put on your Sunday clothes, we're gonna ride through town in one of those new horsedrawn open cars. We'll see the shows at Delmonico's. And we'll close the town in a whirl. And we won't come home until we've kissed a girl.
