歌词
挤过广场上汹涌人潮
Pushing through the market square
这么多哀叹着的母亲
So many mothers sighing
最新的消息刚刚来到
News had just come over
留给琐碎和抱怨的生活只剩下五年,我们即将哀叹着命运,等待审判
We have five years left to sigh in
送新闻的人说起时也落泪
News guy wept when he told us
地球确实在走向毁灭
Earth was really dying
说着说着,泪流满面
Cried so much that his face was wet
我才知道他不是在说谎
Then I knew he was not lying
我听到电话,剧院
I heard telephones, opera house
珍爱的旋律
favourite melodies
我看到玩具,小男孩
I saw toys, boys,
电烙铁,电视机
electric irons and TVs
脑子像仓库一样忠实地存储
Brain hurt like a warehouse
填满的空间,那么痛
Had no room to spare
挤满了要记住的东西,那么多
Had to cram so many things to store
这就是所有的东西
Everything in there
胖的瘦的,人们
Fat-skinny people
高的矮的,人们
Tall-short people
重要的人
Somebody people
无名的人
Nobody people
从没想过我是需要人们的
I never thought I'd need so many people
与我同龄的一个女孩疯掉了
对一些小孩子拳打脚踢
A girl my age went off her head
要不是有那个黑人把她拉开
Hit some tiny children
我猜她大概真的会杀掉他们
If the black hadn't a-pulled her off,
断臂的军人
Well, I think she would have killed them
一直盯着卡迪拉克的车轱辘
A soldier with a broken arm
警察放低膝盖,用嘴唇虔诚地碰触神父的脚面
Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
酷儿见到便吐了出来
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
我想我在冰淇淋铺见过你们
And a queer threw up at the sight of that
喝着奶昔,冰凉的,粘稠的,绵延着的
And I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour
微笑着挥挥手,精神焕发,看起来无可挑剔
Drinking milk shakes cold and long
不觉得你们那时知道自己正被这首歌转述
Smiling and waving and looking so fine
冰冷的天气,绵延不绝的雨,自己在这里像个蹩脚的演员
Don't think you knew you were in this song
于是我想起了妈,想要回到我的源起
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
你们的面容,你们的种族
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
你们讲话的方式
Your face, your race,
“亲吻你,你可真美!”
the way that you talk
多希望你们能动动
I kiss you, you're beautiful
我们还有五年——
I want you to walk
仿佛眼中的一切都贴上了时间标签
We've got five years
五年——
Stuck on my eyes
毫无预料
Five years
五年——
What a surprise
头痛欲裂
Five years
五年——
My brain hurts a lot
这就是我们索要到的一切了
Five years
我们还有五年——
That's all we've got
这个认知缠上了我的眼睛
We've got five years
五年——
Stuck on my eyes
多么措手不及
Five years
我们还有五年——
What a surprise
脑子装了太多东西直到再也不能够
We've got five years
五年——
My brain hurts a lot
天啊,这就是我们的终点了
Five years
我们还有五年——
God, that's all we've got
刻在眼睑上,每时每刻都不得忘记;含在眼眶里,等待,直到滴落那刻
We've got five years
五年——
Stuck on my eyes
真是毫无准备
Five years
五年——
What a surprise
我头痛欲裂
Five years
五年——
My brain hurts a lot
那就是我们的全部所值了
Five years
That's all we've got
