Written by：John Michael Cooley

He kept a loaded gun in the closet
他在衣柜里藏着一把上膛的枪
And another one in the dresser drawer
梳妆台抽屉还备着另一把
Just in case the one in the closet
以防衣柜里的那把
Didn't make a big enough hole
留下的弹孔不够大
She has breakfast ready every morning
她每日清晨备好早餐
And his lunch in a box sitting out by the kitchen door
厨房门边总放着装好的午餐便当
She'd make sure he had everything he needed
确保他所需一应俱全
And hug his neck and tell him how much she loved him
环抱他颈项诉说满腔爱意
And it was beautiful you should have seen it
那画面多美好 你真该亲眼看看
Then she'd make herself a pot of coffee just the way she liked it
她会煮一壶咖啡 按自己最爱的口味
And sit down and enjoy the quiet of the house all alone
独自坐着 享受满屋静谧时光
But by two o'clock or so every afternoon
但每到下午两点左右
The quiet would start getting to her and she'd watch
寂静开始啃噬心房 她便盯着
The clock until he came back home
时钟等待他的归航
And she understood just what he needed
她总是懂得他所需所想
When he came home every evening
每当暮色中他推开家门
Was just a couple of beers and a couple of minutes
不过是几杯啤酒 片刻时光
To cuss about his day
听他抱怨今日种种
So she'd fix him a nice hot supper
她总会备好热腾腾的晚餐
While he ranted and raved about one thing or the other
任他喋喋不休地发泄牢骚
And she never once told him what he was going on about
她从不打断他的长篇大论
Didn't add up to a thing
那些话本就没有意义
And she never touched that gun in the closet
她也从未碰过衣柜里那把枪
It was his and it was there just because he wanted it to be
那是他的 存在只因他的执念
She didn't get out much so she never knew just what it was
她深居简出 始终未能明白
That made him so afraid
他终日惶恐的根源
Most women today would say she was a disgrace
如今多数女性会嗤之以鼻
Most men would say she wasn't much to look at
男人们则嫌她姿色平平
And they all would say she'd be a lot better off
众人都断言她若肯在意世俗眼光
If she cared a little more about what they all think
境况定会好转
She could have a life of her own if she had a little pride
她本可活得洒脱恣意
Some silicone implants and another man on the side
靠整容隆胸与婚外情维系体面
But she's got a loaded gun in the closet
但她在衣柜里藏着一把上膛的枪
And it's there anytime she wants it
随时等待她取用
And her one and only man knows it and
她唯一的男人心知肚明
That's why he put it there in the first place
这正是他当初将它放在那里的原因
