Luyện nghe bài hát Esther (alternate Version)

It was one fall night at a fairground near town
When Esther saw the Armenian man
Who groveled her and stood by her side
With a that swung in his hand

His stretched the folds of his pasty white cheeks
And his lips hurled a of murk on the curb
And the from the rides showed a mischievous sparkle
That flashed in his hollow stare

He said, "Little girl, you can chop off my
And then peel off my if you want to
But I'd rather you this old puppet from me
That I hold in my as we speak"

And he stood looking at the innocent girl
And she stared at the bucket
Then he lifted the doll for the girl to see
And a giant smile on his face

She saw the doll's and she couldn't resist
And she the man quickly and ran to the church
And she burst through the door with held high
And a hush filled the chapel and the people looked

Esther in vain to pacify the mob
Quibble to spat, to wrangle, then to brawl
The frenzied congregation desperately to fetch
The pretty snugly nestled deep in Esther's leather sack

Through the window of the church, a storm to rage
And Esther knew the had come to flee
She scurried down the aisle the doorway in the distance
And out into the rainstorm she felt she would be free

But the wind was blowing
And her skirt began to billow, until her feet began to lift
And she rose above the houses and the people and the
And Esther and the were set adrift

Floating higher the hills
And the valleys and treetops flutter and glide
Soaring and turning on air
With the earth far below they'd tumble
And through the clouds

And she to plummet earthward
Till she landed in the part of town
She glanced about the sure to find the evil men
Who rob and pillage in the darkest hour of

she fumbled for the pouch that held the puppet on her rump
Feeling quite outnumbered hid behind
A nearby pile of lumber, where she waited the dawn
'Cause it would have been a
To succumb to a on the prowl

When the came, she wandered through the streets
Along the lake that lay beside the town
At last a moment, but she thought she heard a sound
It was an angry mob of joggers up to knock her down

As stood and shook her head the joggers were approaching
And she knew she had no choice but to swim
As the frosty water its bitter teeth into her hide
She tried to slide the clothing from her skin

Naked now she her way toward the shore
When suddenly she a tiny tugging at her toe
And the puppet she'd forgotten its tiny
Little arms around her ankle and let her go

The waves to open and swallow her whole
As the pulled her down through the eerie green deep
And the sound of the laughing old man her ears
As she drifted away to a tranquil and sleep
