歌词
On the first day it started to rain
在大雨开始的第一日
Children were laughing and went out to play
孩子们欢笑着,出门玩耍
But soon all the streets were rivers and streams
但很快,街道变成了纵横河流
Creatures were trickling in front the deep
动物们在深水前缓缓挪动
Cars floating like ships over skyscraper tips
汽车像小船一样,漂在摩天大厦顶上
The tallest of trees swaying like *******
最高大的树木如海草般摆动
Aluminum and paperclips
铝制外壳与回形针
Refrigerator parts and microchips
冰箱零件与微型芯片
A rudimentary robot boy
一个简陋的机器男孩
A heart of rubber bands and broken toys
一颗橡皮圈和破旧玩具做的心脏
Just before dusk afraid he might rust
将要黄昏时,他害怕自己生锈
He climbed abroad an upside down bus
于是他爬上了一辆翻转的巴士
With bottle cap eyes he soon realized
用他瓶盖做的眼睛张望着
That nobody else but he has survived
很快他发现,只有他幸存下来
Sifting through debris of kindred machines
在机械同类的残骸中寻觅着
Drifting through a graveyard of sunken cities
穿过沉没之城的坟墓
Aluminum and paperclips
铝制外壳与回形针
Refrigerator parts and microchips
冰箱零件与微型芯片
A rudimentary robot boy
一个简陋的机器男孩
A heart of rubber bands and broken toys
一颗橡皮圈和破旧玩具做的心脏
三十个夜晚,看不见陆地
For thirty nights with no land in sight
他不饿,不累,也不孤单
He never was hungry nor lonesome or tired
他的机械大脑不会失去理智
His mechanical brain could not go insane
他的金属皮肤不会感到疼痛
His metallic skin could never feel pain
鲸鱼们聚作一团叽叽喳喳
The whales gathered round with sibilant sound
他们告诉了他,唯一的出路
They told him about the only way out
如果你想要活下去,如果你想要闪耀
那你必须找到一个同类
If you want to survive if you want to shine
当鲸鱼们拉着他穿过波涛
Then you've got to find someone of your kind
他看见了一张,锡罐和饰带做成的
As they pulled him away across the waves
美丽的脸
He saw a pretty face
铝制外壳与气球般鼓起的嘴唇
Made of tin cans and lace
冰箱零件与硬纸板翘臀
一个简陋的机器女孩
Aluminum and balloon lips
一颗
Refrigerator parts and cardboard hips
橡皮圈和和塑料珍珠做的心脏
A rudimentary robot girl
A heart of rubber bands
And plastic pearls
