歌词
Ballad Of A Thin Man
You walk into the room
你走进房间
With your pencil in your hand
手里拿着铅笔
You see somebody naked
你看见一个赤身裸体的人
And you say, Who is that man?
你说,“那人是谁?”
You try so hard
你百思
But you don't understand
不得其解的是,
Just what you'll say
当你回到家里,
When you get home
该说些什么
Because something is happening here
因为这里有些事正在发生
But you don't know what it is
但你不知道是什么
Do you, Mister Jones?
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
You raise up your head
你抬起头
And you ask, Is this where it is?
你问,“这是在哪儿?”
And somebody points to you and says
有人指着你对你说,
“是他的”
It's his
你说,“什么是我的?”
And you say, What's mine?
另外一个人说,“什么是在哪?”
And somebody else says, Where what is?
你说,“我的上帝,
And you say, Oh my God
这儿就我一人吗?”
Am I here all alone?
因为这里有些事正在发生
Because something is happening here
但你不知道是什么
But you don't know what it is
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
Do you, Mister Jones?
你递上门票
You hand in your ticket
去看滑稽表演
And you go watch the geek
是谁一听见你说话,
Who immediately walks up to you
就立刻走到你跟前
When he hears you speak
对你说,
And says, How does it feel
“成为一个变态的感觉如何啊?”
To be such a freak?
你说,“不可能”
And you say, Impossible
在他递给你一根骨头的时候
As he hands you a bone
因为这里有些事正在发生
Because something is happening here
但你不知道是什么
But you don't know what it is
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
Do you, Mister Jones?
你与伐木工人
You have many contacts
来往密切
Among the lumberjacks
为了认清你的现实
To get you facts
当有人责难你的想象力
When someone attacks your imagination
但是没有丝毫尊重
不管怎样他们都期待你
But nobody has any respect
捐赠一张支票
Anyway they already expect you
给免税慈善组织
To just give a check
你曾跟教授们在一起
To tax-deductible charity organizations
并且他们都喜欢你的外表
You've been with the professors
你们和那些大律师
And they've all liked your looks
讨论那些受蔑视的人和骗子
With great lawyers you have
你已经看完了全部的
Discussed lepers and crooks
斯科特?菲兹杰拉德的书
You've been through all of
你饱读诗书
F. Scott Fitzgerald's books
这一点众所周知
You're very well read
因为这里有些事正在发生
It's well known
但你不知道是什么
Because something is happening here
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
But you don't know what it is
喔,那个吞剑者,他向你走来
Do you, Mister Jones?
然后他跪下
Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to you
把自己洞穿
And then he kneels
他的高跟鞋哒哒地响
He crosses himself
没有另行通告
他问你感觉怎样
And then he clicks his high heels
并且说道,“这是你的咽喉,
And without further notice
感谢你的贷款”
He asks you how it feels
因为这里有些事正在发生
And he says, Here is your throat back
但你不知道是什么
Thanks for the loan
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
Because something is happening here
现在你看这个独眼侏儒
But you don't know what it is
大叫着“现在”
Do you, Mister Jones?
你说,“为什么理由?”
他说,“怎样?”
Now you see this one-eyed midget
你又说,“这是什么意思?”
Shouting the word NOW
他尖叫着回答,“你是头母牛,
And you say, For what reason?
给我些牛奶或别的什么
好让我回家”
And he says, How?
因为这里有些事正在发生
And you say, What does this mean?
但你不知道是什么
And he screams back, You're a cow
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
Give me some milk
那么,你走进那个房间
Or else go home
像只骆驼,然后你皱起眉头
Because something is happening here
你把你的眼睛放进口袋
But you don't know what it is
把你的鼻子放在地上
Do you, Mister Jones?
这里应该有一条法律
Well, you walk into the room
反对你的到来
Like a camel and then you frown
你应该被确保
You put your eyes in your pocket
戴上耳机
And your nose on the ground
因为这里有些事正在发生
There ought to be a law
但你不知道是什么
Against you comin' around
是这样吗,琼斯先生?
You should be made
To wear earphones
Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?
