歌词
"There must be some kind of way out of here,"
“这里一定有什么出路，”
Said the joker to the thief yeah

"There’s too much confusion,

Mmm I can’t get no relief
我一口气也松不下来
Businessmen they drink my wine,
商人喝的是我的酒，
Plowmen dig my earth
农人掘的是我的地
None will level on the line,
可没有一个人遵守规矩，
No one of it is worth"
没有一个人知道这意义何在。”
Yeah
耶
