歌名:Window shopping
作者:Lisa Loeb
歌词:
Try me on
take me home
the tags are on
it's still a loan
warranty is in the sack
you can always take me back
go window shopping again
window shopping again
scan the shelves for something red
it's different
it's brighter than the ones you had to have
they didn't last
they just fade
and you go window shopping again
window shopping again
Chorus
window shopping again
window shopping again
there's no stopping window shopping
window shopping again
there's miles and miles of strip mall smiles
waiting to check you out
and all the conversations
not so subtle invitations
but isn't that what this is all about
oops...there's a hole in the shrink wrap
you didn't notice that
lucky you, they'll take it back
the warranty is in the sack
besides there's always something more
something better...a bigger store
to go...
Chorus
Repeat
try me on
take me home
the tags are on
it's still a loan
the warranty is in the sack
you can always take me back
背景信息:
"Window Shopping"在轻描淡写的蓝调吉他拨弦牵引下,让人感受到不太一样的Lisa Loeb。该歌曲主要讲的是人们在快速发展的物欲社会中,购买欲是无止境的,没有得到的东西永远都比自己已经买入的好。主张人们要有购物计划,合理消费,理性消费。
教学建议:
本单元讲的主题是going shopping,那么在go shopping前可引入购物计划这一说法,鼓励学生在进行消费购物时,先做好预算。既可以自然引入主题,又对学生的价值观起到积极的塑造作用。
