Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

The Pirate Of Penance

 

The Pirate Of Penance

(album: Song To A Seagull - 1968)


[PENANCE CRANE:]
The pirate anchored on a Wednesday
And why he came to port I wonder
To see a lady so my friends say
She dances for the sailors
In a smoky cabaret bar underground
Down in a cellar in a harbor town
I know he told her love was treasure
And they would reap the fullest bounty
He only comes to port for pleasure
So when the winds of morning
Blew the curtains in she woke and found he'd gone
I saw his sails unfurling Thursday dawn
The pirate he will sink you with a kiss
He'll steal your heart and sail away

[THE DANCER:]
Saturday early we met in the cove near the forest

[PENANCE:]
He'll leave you drowning in the flotsam Of a broken promise in the bay

[THE DANCER:]
(Dancing we wakened the dawn and the birds into chorus)

[PENANCE:]
He came again to see her
Yes I think they told me it was Saturday

[THE DANCER:]
(Ask Penance Crane she was out in her garden she saw us)

[PENANCE:]
I was at sea then
I didn't see them
I don't believe what you are saying
It isn't true I hardly knew him
Is this some game that you are playing
Go ask the dancer she's the one who saw him last
The one who drew him here
He hasn't come to me since spring last year
There was a time when he would
Bring me silks and sandalwood and Persian lace

[THE DANCER:]
(Then came another "goodbye" and another "Please don't go")

[PENANCE:]
And he would hold me close
And tell my sailing stories by the fireplace

[THE DANCER:]
(All night I dance and all day I keep watch with my sorrow)

[PENANCE:]
I was at sea I tell you I was
Nowhere near the mentioned murder place

[THE DANCER:]
(Searching for sails that don't come
And I guess but I don't know)

[PENANCE:]
Go ask the dancer
She knows the answer

[THE DANCER:]
I don't know

[PENANCE:]
She knows the answer

[THE DANCER:]
I don't know

[PENANCE:]
She knows the answer

[THE DANCER:]
I don't know

done
