You people can watch while I'm scrubbing these floors
你们尽可旁观 我正擦拭着地板
And I'm scrubbin' the floors while you're gawking
你们驻足窥视 我仍躬身洗刷污痕
Maybe once you tip me and it makes you feel swell
或许施舍小费令你们自觉高尚
In this crummy southern town in this crummy old hotel
在这南方破败小镇 腐朽的老旅馆中
But you'll never guess to who you're talkin'
但你们永远猜不透对话的是谁
No you couldn't ever guess to who you're talkin'
不 你们永远无法知晓对话的是谁
Then one night there's a scream in the night
直到某夜尖叫划破黑暗
And you wonder who could that have been
你们才开始猜疑那声音的来源
And you see me kinda grinnin' while I'm scrubbin'
你看见我擦洗时莫名微笑
And you say "What's she got to grin " I'll tell you
你问"她有什么可高兴的" 我来告诉你
There's a ship The Black Freighter
有艘船 那艘黑货船
With a skull on its masthead will be coming in
桅杆挂着骷髅旗 即将靠岸
You gentlemen can say "Hey gal finish them floors
先生们会说"嘿丫头 快擦完地板
Get upstairs
滚上楼去
What's wrong with you Earn your keep here
你发什么呆 还想不想在这干活"
You toss me your tips and look out to the ships
你将小费抛给我 目光却投向远方船只
But I'm counting your heads as I'm making the beds
我整理床铺时 正清点着你们的人数
'Cuz there's nobody gonna sleep here tonight
因为今夜没人能在此安眠
Nobody is going to sleep here honey
亲爱的 今夜无人得以安睡
Nobody nobody
没有人 没有人
Then one night there's a scream in the night
直到某夜尖叫划破黑暗
And you say "Who's that kicking up a row "
你问"是谁在制造骚动"
And you see me kinda starin' out the window
却看见我凝望窗外的身影
And you say "What's she got to stare at now "
而你问道 "她此刻在凝视什么"
I'll tell you
让我告诉你
There's a ship
有一艘船
The Black Freighter turns around in the harbor
黑货船在港口调转船头
Shootin' guns from her bow
船首火炮正在轰鸣
Now you gentlemen can wipe off that smile off your face
先生们 现在你们可以收起笑容了
'Cause every building in town is a flat one
因为镇上每栋建筑都将化为废墟
This whole frickin' place will be down to the ground
这整个该死的地方都将被夷为平地
Only this cheap hotel standing up safe and sound
唯有这廉价旅馆安然矗立
And you yell "Why do they spare that one "
你怒吼"为何独留这一栋"
Yes that's what you say "Why do they spare that one "
是啊 你质问"为何独留这一栋"
All the night through through the noise and to do
整夜喧嚣混乱中
You wonder who is that person that lives up there
你猜想着楼上住着什么人
And you see me stepping out in the morning
直到看见我清晨推门而出
Looking nice with a ribbon in my hair
发间丝带衬得容光焕发
And the ship
而那艘船
The Black Freighter runs a flag up its masthead
黑货船升起旗帜飘扬桅杆
And a cheer rings the air
欢呼声划破长空
By noontime the dock is a swarmin' with men
正午码头人群如蚁群骚动
Comin' out from the ghostly freighter
从幽灵货船蜂拥而出
They're movin' in the shadows where no one can see
他们在无人窥见的阴影中穿行
And they're chainin' up people and they're bringin' 'em to me
将人们锁上镣铐押解至我面前
Askin' me "Kill them now or later "
质问我"此刻行刑或暂缓"
Askin' me "Kill them now or later "
质问我"此刻行刑或暂缓"
Noon by the clock and so still by the dock
正午时分 码头寂静无声
You can hear a foghorn miles away
数英里外雾角声依稀可闻
And in that quiet of death
在这死一般的沉寂中
I'll say "Right now right now "
我将低语"就是现在 就是此刻"
Then they'll pile up the bodies
尸体终将堆积如山
And I'll say "That'll learn ya "
而我只会冷笑"这就是教训"
And the ship
而那艘船
The Black Freighter disappears out to sea
黑色货船消失在海天之际
And on it is me
而我就在那船上
