請問一首英文歌的歌名
這好像是蠻久以前的西洋歌曲
一個女生唱的,旋律很輕快
I am sitting in the morning
At the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter
For the man to pour the coffee
And he fills it only halfway
And before I even argue
He is looking out the window
At somebody coming in
It is always nice to see you
Says the man behind the counter
To the woman who has come in
She is shaking her umbrella
這是一部份歌詞,旋律大致上都一樣,每段之間都會一直\"嘟嚕嘟嚕嘟嚕嘟嚕...\"
請告訴我歌手和歌名

歌詞:
I am waiting
At the counter
For the man
To pour the coffee
And he fills it
Only halfway
And before
I even argue
He is looking
Out the window
At somebody
Coming in
"It is always
Nice to see you"
Says the man
Behind the counter
To the woman
Who has come in
She is shaking
Her umbrella
And I look
The other way
As they are kissing
Their hellos
I'm pretending
Not to see them
And instead
I pour the milk
I open
Up the paper
There's a story
Of an actor
Who had died
While he was drinking
It was no one
I had heard of
And I'm turning
To the horoscope
And looking
For the funnies
When I'm feeling
Someone watching me
And so
I raise my head
There's a woman
On the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?
No she does not
Really see me
Cause she sees
Her own reflection
And I'm trying
Not to notice
That she's hitching
Up her skirt
And while she's
Straightening her stockings
Her hair
Is getting wet
Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I'm listening
To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...
And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...
I finish up my coffee
It's time to catch the train
歌詞大意:
這首歌是Susan Vega在她常去的一家街角的餐廳叫做Tom's Restaurant用早餐時的情景描寫。整首歌其實非常簡單,只是把她捕捉到的一些生活剪影呈現出來,有一種隨意,一種生活的慵懶。有趣的是這首歌原本是清唱版,因為旋律的吸引人受到各國愛好者的翻唱,因此有歌詞全部改寫的版本,也有饒舌與雷鬼節奏版。這些版本原本唱片公司要禁絕,但是Susan把它們結集成一張名為Tom's Album的CD。內容都非常有意思。Susan本人非常喜歡DNA所改的舞曲版,後來在精選集裡就以舞曲版收錄。
