歌词
Wes was just a boy back then
那时候，韦斯他还是个小孩子
His dad was rough
他的爸爸粗俗不堪
And his mom drank gin
他的妈妈困苦失意
He fled his home so he could stray
他逃离家乡，从此浮沉流浪
To start the life for which he prayed
开始他为之祈祷的生活
As he got older he made good grades
随着阅历的增长他懂得了
He played ball for Kansas State
处理人情世故
But he grew tired of running dry
他也厌倦了这种无味的枯燥
And he got shut down for getting high
他变得消沉堕落
Oh dear God
亲爱的上帝啊
Look what they've done
看看他们都做了什么
They locked him up
他们将他禁锢
Like he had a gun
避之如蛇蝎
Look, for a laugh
看啊，多可笑啊
We're just having fun
我们仅仅为了消遣
One boy lost
而那个男孩却迷失了
When he should've run
当他应该去丈量世界的时候
Took the fall for nothing at all
却一无所获
A crime so small, a price overdone
不以为然的，却是锥心之罪
Oh dear God
亲爱的上帝啊
Look what they've done
看看他们都做了什么
They locked him up
他们将他禁锢
Like he had a gun
避之如蛇蝎
And so it went Wes shipped away
就这样，那个男孩被亵渎了
Like a beast into a cage
就像把野兽关进了囚笼
He likes to run, no hope to fly
少年本该含笑奔跑，不应失去继续飞翔的希冀
They squashed him down if he would try
他尝试呼救，换来的却是沉默
He called a friend, he hoped he could
他打电话告诉他的朋友，希望他能
Still hear her voice from where he stood
历尽千帆，仍是少年
The phone cut off by a machine
电话被机器切断
That sounded strange and words so mean
这些字眼听起来刻薄奇怪
Oh dear God
亲爱的上帝啊
Look what they've done
看看他们都做了什么
They locked him up
他们将他禁锢
Like he had a gun
避之如蛇蝎
Look, for a laugh
看啊，多可笑啊
We're just having fun

When he should've run
