歌词
We didn't have nowhere to live
我们没有住所可居
We didn't have nowhere to go
我们没有地方可去
'Til someone said
直到有一个人说
"I know this place off Burditt Road"
“我知道一个叫伯德特路的地方"
It was on the fifteenth floor
它在第十五层楼
It had a board across the door
它门前有一块板子挡着
It took an hour to prise it off
我们花了一个小时才撬开
And get inside
然后进去里面
It smelt as if someone had died
它闻起来像是有人死在了里面
The living room was full of flies
苍蝇飞舞在卧室里面
The kitchen sink was blocked
水槽也堵在了厨房里面
The bathroom sink not there at all
而浴室的水槽则根本不在里面
Ooh, it's a mess alright
哦，这简直是一团糟
Yes it's, Mile End
是的，这就是Mile End
我们现在住在云端
And now we're living in the sky
我从来没想过我会住在这么高的地方
I never thought I'd live so high
它简直就像天堂
Just like Heaven
如果它能够看起来不那么像地狱的话
If it didn't look like Hell
电梯里总是充满了尿腥味
The lift is always full of piss
五层的楼梯充满了鱼腥味
The fifth floor landing smells of fish
而这不仅仅是在星期五
Not just on Friday
其余的每一天都是这样
Every single other day
今晚孩子们在楼下玩耍
Below the kids come out tonight
他们踢球然后打了一架
They kick a ball and have a fight
如果他们输了台球的话
And maybe shoot somebody
或许还会朝某个人开枪
If they lose at pool
哦，这简直是一团糟
Ooh, it's a mess alright
是的，这就是Mile End
Yes it's, Mile End
没有人想成为你的朋友
因为你来自别的地方
Nobody wants to be your friend
就好像
'Cause you're not from 'round here, ooh
生活在这里是什么值得骄傲的地方
As if that was
犬之岛的珍珠之王
Something to be proud about
把孩子们耍的团团转
The Pearly King of the Isle of Dogs
就在游乐场里面
Feels up children in the bogs
有人点着了一辆车
Down by the playing fields
我猜你就要离开了
Someone sets a car on fire
在你真正理解之前
I guess you have to go right down
多卑贱
Before you understand just how
一个人可以卑贱到什么程度
How low
哦，这真是一团糟
How low a human being can go
是的，这就是Mile End
Ooh, it's a mess alright
Yes it's, Mile End
