歌词
上午十点半，Susan赶上了进镇的公交。坐在后排，
看着前面那个男人的后脑勺，想他胖到叠褶的脖子，
多像衣领里插了根大胡萝卜。把车票上的数字加起来，
Susan catches the bus into town at ten-thirty a.m. she sits on the back seat. she looks at
看到不到二十一，可惜没有。那么也许她根本就不该去上学。
朋友们都在院子里，双手抱胸，
The man in fronts head and thinks how his fat wrinkled neck is like a large carrot
挤弄着试图看起来丰满些，
Sticking out from the collar of his shirt. she adds up the numbers on her bus ticket to
可男孩子都忙着踢球，根本不在意。公交正停在大街上，
See if they make twenty-one, but they dont. maybe she shouldnt bother going to school at
突然下起暴雨，就像一百万袋干豆子泼在车顶
All, then. her friends will be in the yard with their arms folded on their chests,
如果这场雨永远下个不停呢？她自顾自地想，
Shielding their breasts to try and make them look bigger, whilst the boys will be too busy
那就会像在水族馆一样了，
Playing football to notice. the bus is waiting on the high street when suddenly it begins
只不过玻璃里飘的不是鱼，而是购物的和坐办公室的。
To rain torrentially and it sounds like someone has emptied about a million packets of
路过Caroline Lee家时，她还在想上周在那儿的派对。
Dried peas on top of the roof of the bus. what if it just keeps raining, she
有几个发育非常成熟的德国交换生
Thinks to herself, and it was just like being in an aquarium except it was all the
他们全都从卧室窗户里跳出去了。
Shoppers and office-workers that were floating passed the window instead of fish?
其中一个还试图在台阶上吻她，于是她踢了他。
Shes still thinking about this when the bus goes passed caroline lees house where there
过会儿她也犯恶心了，苹果酒喝多了。她假装自己嫁给了那个戴眼镜的高个男孩儿（就是Jarvis自己）
Was a party last week. there were some german exchange students there who were very
还为了遮掩吻痕不得不穿上三天高领衣服。
Mature; they all ended up jumping out of the bedroom window. one of them tried to get her
现在经过市场，外面有个男的，
整天都塞给人家签字笔，强迫他们付钱。
To kiss him on the stairs, so she kicked him. later she was sick because she drunk too
她以前在宠物店工作，可是因为总在工作时和男孩子聊天，
Much cider. caroline was drunk as well; she was pretending she was married to a tall boy
被开除了。不过没放心上，反正她也厌恶那股兔子味儿。
In glasses, and she had to wear a polo-neck for three days afterwards to cover up the
或许这趟车不会停下，她想，我就一直待着，
Love-bite on her neck. by now the bus is going passed the market. outside is a man who
待到够年龄自己去酒吧。或许它可以载我到一个
Spends all day forcing felt-tip pens into peoples hands and then trying to make them pay
满是喝特有啤酒的黑头发的人的地方，我让那些胖老男人看我裙底，一眼收五英镑，
For them. she used to work in the pet shop, but she got sacked for talking to boys when
那能赚好多钱。噢，他们肯定排队争着带我出去吃饭。
She was supposed to be working. she wasnt too bothered though, she hated the smell of the
我猜你觉得她就是个满脑蠢注意的傻姑娘
Rabbits anyway. maybe this bus wont stop, she thinks, and Ill stay on
但我记得那时的她。人们说有种人内心有火焰，
It until Im old enough to go into pubs on my own. or it could drive me to a town where
嗯，她就是那种人。只不过没人敢跳进她的火焰；
People with black hair drink special brew and I can make lots of money by charging fat old
他们可能会被吞噬掉。于是相反，他们把她丢到角落发热
Men five pounds a time to look up my skirt. oh, theyll be queuing up to take me out to
围着她暖手暖屁股，然后满镇泼她脏水。
Dinner... I suppose you think shes just a silly girl with stupid ideas, but i
没有人真正走进Susan，而且，而且，她最终总是要
Remember her in those days. they talk about people with a fire within and all that stuff,
在终点站下车，走回家。
Well, she had that alright. its just that no-one dared to jump into her fire; they would
Have been consumed. instead, they put her in a corner and let her heat up the room,
Warming their hands and backsides in front of her, and then slagging her off around town.
No-one ever really got inside susan, and, and, she always ended up getting off the bus at
The terminus and then walking home.
