歌词
Written by：Elton John/Bernie Taupin
（他的父亲有War II的战后创伤）
Have you ever lived in a cage
你曾经困于方寸之间吗
Where you live to be whipped and be tamed
活着却被扭曲了人格
For I've never loved in a cage
我一点也不喜欢那些条条框框
Or talked to a friend or just waved
比如礼节却没有人情
Well I walk while they talk about virtue
我路过时 人们在谈论着高尚美德
Just raised on my back legs and snarled
却在背后对我们指指点点 恶语相向
Watched you kiss your old daddy with passion
你亲吻着死去的父亲
And tell dirty jokes as he died
却被葬礼上的其他人污秽的嘲笑
But I'm damned when I really care there
当我实实在在的在乎的时候 真的出离的愤怒
For the cellar's the room in your lives
你的那间居酒屋
Where you lace yourself with bad whiskey
你喜欢独自一人闭塞的平常美妙却残酷的威士忌
And close the cage doors on your life
当关上那扇门时 也关上了你心灵的窗户
Well I pray while you bathe in bad water
你洗澡的时候 我在祈祷
Sing songs that I learnt as a boy
你洗完澡后会来我床边唱小时候给我唱的歌
Then break all the bones in my body
那些音乐美妙得销魂入骨 我能快速入睡
On the bars you can never destroy
你在酒吧里总是千杯不醉
Have you ever lived in a cage
你曾经困于方寸之间吗
Where you live to be whipped and be tamed
活着却被扭曲了人格
For I've never loved in a cage
我一点也不喜欢那些条条框框
Or talked to a friend or just waved
请你来世做一个充满爱的papa
