歌词与中文翻译
Well, Frankie Lee and Judas Priest,
[tool:歌词滚动姬 (lrc-maker.github.io)]
They were the best of friends.
弗兰肯·李和圣徒犹大
So when Frankie Lee needed money one day,
他们是最好的朋友
Judas quickly pulled out a roll of tens
所以某天弗兰肯·李需要钱时
And placed them on a footstool
犹大立即掏出一卷十元
Just above the plotted plain,
他把它放在一个脚凳上
Sayin', "Take your pick, Frankie Boy,"
就在他告密计划的上方
My loss will be your gain."
把你要的拿过去,弗兰肯,
Well, Frankie Lee, he sat right down
我的损失会帮助到你
And put his fingers to his chin,
弗兰肯·李端正地坐下
But with the cold eyes of Judas on him,
把手指放到下巴处
His head began to spin.
他此时注意到犹大冰冷的目光
"Would ya please not stare at me like that," he said,"
一股眩晕感涌了上来
"It's just my foolish pride,"
不要这样盯着我,"他说
But sometimes a man must be alone
呃,这只是出于我的自尊罢了。
And this is no place to hide."
有时一个男人需要独处，
Well, Judas, he just winked and said,
但现在我无所遁形。”
"All right, I'll leave you here,“
犹大对他使了个眼神，说：
But you'd better hurry up and choose
好吧，我先出去一会
Which of those bills you want,
但你最好赶紧选好
Before they all disappear."
你到底需要多少钱
"I'm gonna start my pickin' right now,“
在它们消失之前。”
Just tell me where you'll be."
我现在正准备开始选
Judas pointed down the road
不过告诉我你要去哪？”
And said, "Eternity!
犹大指着道路
"Eternity?" said Frankie Lee,“
"大喊：“永生！”
With a voice as cold as ice.
永生？”弗兰肯·李迷惑不解
"That's right," said Judas Priest, "Eternity,
语气像冰一样冷淡
Though you might call it 'Paradise.'"
“没错，”犹大说：“永生
"I don't call it anything,"
尽管你可能叫它‘天堂’。”
Said Frankie Lee with a smile.
我不知道怎么形容它
"All right," said Judas Priest,
弗兰肯·李笑着答道
"I'll see you after a while."“
“嗯，”圣徒犹大说：
Well, Frankie Lee, he sat back down,
我一会再来看你”
Feelin' low and mean,
弗兰肯·李又坐回去
When just then a passing stranger
心情低落且难过
Burst upon the scene,
一个过路人
Saying, "Are you Frankie Lee, the gambler,Whose father is deceased?
正巧看到这番景象
Well, if you are,
问他：“你是弗兰肯·李吗，那个父亲去世了的赌徒?
There's a fellow callin' you down the road
如果你是他
And they say his name is Priest."
你的同伴在那条路上叫你
"Oh, yes, he is my friend,
他们说他是个圣徒。”
Said Frankie Lee in fright
"“哦，是的，他是我的好友。”
"I do recall him very well,“
弗兰肯·李害怕地说：
In fact, he just left my sight."
我对他印象深刻，
"Yes, that's the one," said the stranger,“
其实，他之前还在和我畅谈。”
As quiet as a mouse,
是的，就是他，”陌生人说着，
"Well, my message is, he's down the road,“
气氛安静得可以听到老鼠
Stranded in a house."
我带来的消息是，他待在那条路上
Well, Frankie Lee, he panicked,
困在一幢房子里。”
He dropped ev'rything and ran
弗兰肯·李非常惊恐
Until he came up to the spot
他不顾一切地奔跑
Where Judas Priest did stand.
直到他赶到指定的地点
"What kind of house is this," he said,“
圣徒犹大站在那里
"Where I have come to roam?"“
这是什么样的房子，”他问，
"It's not a house," said Judas Priest,“
我现在走了多远了？”
"It's not a house . . . it's a home."
这不是一幢房子，”犹大说，
Well, Frankie Lee, he trembled,
“不是房子...是家。”
He soon lost all control
弗兰肯·李身体颤抖
Over ev'rything which he had made
他瞬间失去了意识
While the mission bells did toll.
包括他所做的一切
He just stood there staring
当教堂的钟声回响
At that big house as bright as any sun,
他伫立在那凝视着
With four and twenty windows
如烈日般闪耀的房
And a woman's face in ev'ry one.
囊括着四室二十窗
Well, up the stairs ran Frankie Lee
每间里都有一女子
With a soulful, bounding leap,
弗兰肯·李跑上楼顶
And, foaming at the mouth,
伴随着疯狂的大跳
He began to make his midnight creep.
他的唇边冒出白沫
For sixteen nights and days he raved,
他开始做白日大梦
But on the seventeenth he burst
十六个日夜的混沌
Into the arms of Judas Priest,
终在十七日时清醒
Which is where he died of thirst.
卧倒在犹大的臂间
No one tried to say a thing
他曾将渴死在此处
When they took him out in jest,
无人试图发起话题
Except, of course, the little neighbor boy
众人视他如一笑柄
Who carried him to rest.
当然除了他的邻男
And he just walked along, alone,
将他背去休养生息
With his guilt so well concealed,
而他只是独自漫步
And muttered underneath his breath,
把其罪行完善隐瞒
"Nothing is revealed."“
轻声在呼吸下低语
Well, the moral of the story,
什么也没有被启示”
The moral of this song,
一则寓言
Is simply that one should never be
换来一曲寓言
Where one does not belong.
警示着一个人从不该
So when you see your neighbor carryin' somethin',
待在不属于他的地方
Help him with his load,
所以当你看到你的邻居扛着什么时
And don't go mistaking Paradise
快过去帮他一把
For that home across the road.
也不要进入错的天堂
