歌词
Driving home she grabs something to eat
开车回家的路上她买了点吃的
Turns a corner and drives down her street
转过街角，沿街行驶
Into a row of houses she just melts away
在林立的房子间消融不见
Like the scenery in another man's play
像某人戏剧中的场景
Into a house where the blinds are closed
走进房子，百叶窗紧闭着
To keep from seeing things she don't wanna know
就不用去看那些烦心事
She pulls the blinds and looks out on the street
她拉起百叶窗朝街上望去
The cool of the night takes the edge off the heat
夜间的凉意磨平了
In the Jackson Cage
杰克逊笼的炎热
Down in the Jackson Cage
杰克逊笼的炎热（应是一虚构地名）
You can try with all your might
任你使尽浑身解数
But you're reminded every night
每晚仍会想起
That you been judged and handed life
你已受审判，注定生活在
Down in the Jackson Cage
这杰克逊笼
Every day ends in wasted motion
终日在无用功中消磨
Just crossed swords on the killing floor
仿佛终日拼杀的剑
To settle back is to settle without knowing
仰面躺下，却浑然不觉
The hard edge that you're settling for
命中注定的艰难
Because there's always just one more day
永远有的新的一天要面对
And it's always gonna be that way
永远如此
Little girl you've been down here so long
小姑娘，你在此地已经太久
I can tell by the way that you move you belong to
你的一举一动都在表明
The Jackson Cage
你属于杰克逊笼
Down in Jackson Cage
这杰克逊笼
And it don't matter just what you say
无需多言了
Are you tough enough to play the game they play
他们玩的游戏，你是否够胆去玩？
Or will you just do your time and fade away
还是浑噩度日，逐渐消失在
Down into the Jackson Cage
这杰克逊笼？
Baby there's nights when I dream of a better world
宝贝，夜里我时时梦见一个更好的世界
But I wake up so downhearted girl
但醒来却是那么失落
I see you feeling so tired and confused
我见你疲惫迷茫
I wonder what it's worth to me or you
我疑惑这一切的意义
Just waiting to see some sun
痴痴地等待阳光
Never knowing if that day will ever come
永远不知那一天何时到来
Left alone standing out on the street
也不可能出人头地
Till you become the hand that turns the key down in
不可能打开这坚硬的锁
Jackson Cage
这杰克逊笼
Down in Jackson Cage
这杰克逊笼
Well darlin' can you understand
宝贝你知道吗
The way that they will turn a man
他们是怎样把人
Into a stranger to waste away
活生生变成了局外人，渐渐消失在
Down in the Jackson Cage
这杰克逊笼
