歌词
[Jerusha Abbott]
真是糟糕的一天
A perfectly awful day
每月的第一个星期一
The first Monday of every month
积灰的楼梯
Every floor scrubbed
蒙尘的椅子
Every chair dusted
真是糟糕的一天
A perfectly awful day
床铺都要平平整整
Every bed without a wrinkle
97个孤儿的头发
Every hair combed
都要精心梳理
On ninety seven orphans!
可怜的乔若莎·阿伯特
只能奋战在“前线”
Poor Jerusha Abbott
可怜的乔若莎·阿伯特
Has to bear the brunt of it all!
约翰·格利尔之家最大的孤儿
Poor Jerusha Abbott
真是糟糕的一天
The oldest orphan in the John Grier Home
理事们都来了
喝点下午茶
A perfectly awful day
写点观察报告
The trustees come to visit
然后在晚上火速逃离进
Taking tea breaks
他们在城市里的大房子
Having reports written
我和其他97个孤儿
就这样眼巴巴地目送他们离开
They hurry away in the night
可怜的乔若莎·阿伯特
For houses in the city
永远无法离开这个地方
And I watch them
可怜的乔若莎·阿伯特
With ninety seven orphans
约翰·格利尔之家里最大的孤儿
小汤米·迪伦在阶梯上对我喊
Poor Jerusha Abbott
乔若莎·阿伯特
Never breaking free of this place!
有人叫你
Poor Jerusha Abbott
去办公室
The oldest orphan in the John Grier Home
你最好快点儿！
谁找我？
Little Tommy Dylan comes singing up the stairs:
利皮特太太
Jerusha Abbott
在办公室等你
You are wanted
她看起来好像很生气！
In the office
我又做错了什么？
And you better hurry up!
三明治切得不够薄？
有贝壳混进栗子蛋糕？
Who wants me?
我又做错了什么？
难道哪位理事女士
Mrs Lippett
看见了苏西·霍松袜子上的破洞？
In the office
真是糟糕的一天
And I think she's really mad!
一个剪影
高大又修长
Where did I go wrong?
站在黑暗中央
Were the sandwiches not thin enough?
我看不到他的脸
Were there shells in the nutcakes?
但车头的大灯
Where did I go wrong?
划出一个阴影
Did a lady visitor
投在墙上
See the hole in Susie Hawthorne's stocking?
看起来像一只长腿叔叔（一种蜘蛛）
我从没见过这么大的一只！
A perfectly awful day
这只缓缓移动着的“长腿叔叔”
A silhouetted figure
使我笑了起来
Tall and gangly
在这糟糕的一天
Shrouded in the darkness
我，乔若莎·阿伯特
约翰·格利尔之家最大的孤儿
I cannot see his face
But the headlights in the driveway
Cast a shadow
Sharp against the wall
Looking like a daddy long legs
The biggest one that I had ever seen!
A creeping, crawling daddy long legs
And it makes me laugh
On this awful day
Me, Jerusha Abbott
The oldest orphan in the John Grier Home
