歌词
The good people built those houses with their hands
善良的人们用自己的双手建造房子
And taught their daughters to play on tin drum sets
然后教女儿演奏锡罐子做的小鼓
While an old man put a grandkid on the piano
一个老人把孙子放在钢琴上
And they played chopsticks until their hands went dead
他们不停弹着筷子歌直到手累到动不了
And cats were thrown off the backs of trucks and ambled up the yard to us
猫被从卡车的后备箱上扔出，从前院摇晃着朝我们走来
Singin' all I want is a bed to lie in lovin' arms for me to die in
它唱着，我只是想要一张可以休息的床，和可以永眠的怀抱
And the garbage man took the cans he can with Mrs. Van Holzer
收垃圾男人想要把范霍尔泽夫人和她给的罐子一起带走
If he wants to no he can't, no he can't 'cus he's a married man
但他也只能想想，因为他可是个有老婆的男人
And if Mr. Van Holzer found out, with his short temper
如果被范霍尔泽先生发现了，还有他的那个暴脾气
You know what he will do?
你们都知道他会做些什么
And she was singing true but the garbage man's the only one can dance real blue
她唱着动人的歌谣，那个收垃圾的男人才是唯一能合着她的蓝调跳舞的人
And pretty soon the fire trucks and ambulance were singing too
很快消防车和救护车也都唱了起来
They were singin Ooo...
它们唱着哦呜呜...
They were singin Ooo...
它们唱着哦呜呜...
So if you move out west it's best to keep a very close eye on your kids and pets

Cus big birds have been known to dive
人们都说大鸟会突然俯冲
And carry those precious things to heavy heights
抓起那些珍贵的东西带到天空的高度
And drop them in a field
然后再把他们抛下在田地里
Where sad sisters all come down to kneel and hold their hands to their hearts
经历痛苦的姐妹们会到那里祈祷，双手握紧胸前心脏所在的地方
They've learned to lock all of the things they love up
她们学会了将珍视的东西上锁
Yeah they were cryin
是的，她们在这里哭喊
They were lyin in the fields
她们躺在田野里
They were singin from the places where they kneeled
她们在祈祷的地方唱歌
Yeah they were singin
是的，她们在歌唱着
They were singin

Someone in my head said when all you have is land things with wings can present themselves as a pretty big damn threat
我脑中有个声音说到，如果你只见过地面，长着翅膀的东西会看起来如此可怕
All you have is land things with wings can present themselves as a pretty big damn threat
当你把所有筹码都压在这片地上，会飞走的东西就像个定时炸弹
When all you have is land things with wings can present themselves as a pretty big damn threat
在你除了这片土地一无所有时，见到扶摇直上的他们就会如临大敌
When all you have is land things with wings can present themselves as a pretty big damn threat
因为你没法学会飞行，可以展翅翱翔的他们就像是危险的敌人
And the garbage men, and the ambulance
捡垃圾的男人，还有救护车
Oh lovin sisters, tin drum sets
亲爱的姐妹们，合着锡罐子做的小鼓
Married women and their men
结了婚的女人与她们的男人一起
They all were singin
他们都在唱歌
They were singin Ooo...
他们都在唱着哦呜呜...
They were singin Ooo...
他们都在唱着哦呜呜...
