歌词与中文翻译
One Crowded Hour-Augie March
一个拥挤的小时Augie March
Now should you expect to see something that you hadn't seen
现在你应该期待看到你没有看到的东西吗
In somebody you'd known since you were sixteen;
你从16岁就认识的人；
if love is a bolt from the blue, then what is that bolt but a glorified screw?
如果爱是晴天霹雳，那又是什么呢？不过是一颗光荣的螺丝钉？
and that doesn't hold nothing together
但这并不意味着什么
Far from these nonsense bars and their nowhere music it's making me sick
远离那些无稽之谈的酒吧和无处不在的音乐让我恶心
And I know it's making you sick
我知道这让你恶心
There's nothing there, it's like eating air
那里什么都没有，就像吃空气一样
It's like drinking gin with nothing else in
就像喝杜松子酒，什么都不放
And that doesn't hold me together.
但这并不能让我团结在一起。
But for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
但在拥挤的一个小时里，你是唯一一个在房间里的人
And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom
我在黑夜里绕着所有的颠簸，驶向你在黑暗中的灯塔
I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June
我以为我在那紫色的六月中找到了我金色的九月
But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
但是一个拥挤的小时会导致我的崩溃和毁灭
And I know you like your boys to take their medicine
我知道你喜欢你的孩子吃药
From the bowl with a silver spoon
用银勺从碗里拿出来
Who run away with the dish and scale the fish by the silvery light of the moon
他们带着盘子跑了，在月光的照耀下剥落了鱼鳞
Who were taught from the womb to believe till the tomb
他们从小就被教导要信到坟墓
That as far as their bleeding eyes see
在他们流血的眼睛看来
Is a pleasure pen, meant for them, builded and rent for them
是为他们准备的快乐之笔，是为他们建造并出租的吗
Not for the likes of me
不是为了我这样的人
Not for the like of you and me
不是为了像你我这样的人
And for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
在拥挤的一个小时里，只有你在房间里
And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom
我在黑夜里绕着所有的颠簸，驶向你在黑暗中的灯塔
I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June
我以为我在那紫色的六月中找到了我金色的九月
But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
但是一个拥挤的小时会导致我的崩溃和毁灭
Oh but the green-eyed harpy of the salt land
哦，但是盐田的绿眼女妖
She takes into hers my hand
她抓住了我的手
She says, "Boy I know you're lying
她说，“孩子，我知道你在撒谎
Oh but then, so am I,"
哦，不过，我也是。”
And to this I said "Oh well."
对此我说“哦，好吧。”
Well put me in a cage full of lions, I learned to speak lion
把我关在满是狮子的笼子里，我学会了说狮子
In fact I know the language well
事实上我很懂这门语言
I picked it up while I was versing myself in the languages they speak in hell
我是在用他们在地狱里说的语言给自己翻译的时候捡到的
That night, the silence gave birth to a baby
那天晚上，寂静中生下了一个婴儿
They took it away to her silent dismay
他们把它拿走了，使她一声不响地惊慌失措
And they raised it to be a lady
他们把它培养成一个淑女
Now she can't keep her mouth shut
现在她闭不上嘴了
And for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
在拥挤的一个小时里，只有你在房间里
And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom
我在黑夜里绕着所有的颠簸，驶向你在黑暗中的灯塔
I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June
我以为我在那紫色的六月中找到了我金色的九月
But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
但是一个拥挤的小时会导致我的崩溃和毁灭
For one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
在拥挤的一个小时里，只有你在房间里
Well I played a few songs for those bumps in the night
我在晚上为那些颠簸的地方放了几首歌
In fact I played this very tune
事实上，我演奏了这首曲子
You said, "What is this six-stringed instrument but an adolescent loom?"
你说，“这六弦乐器是什么，只是一个青春期的织布机？”
And one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin.
一个拥挤的小时会导致我的崩溃和毁灭。
