Working for the devil
为恶魔卖命工作
You'll have to pay his tax

That means going to see him
这意味着要亲自去见他
Down among the racks
深入那阴暗的牢笼
You are going to living him
你将永远属于他
To make them feel
只为取悦他们
You do his work so fine
你为他效劳如此出色
He'll remember you

Worried for my friend
为挚友忧心忡忡
As he shows me round the flat
当他带我参观公寓时
Where I don't want to find him
我最不愿在此处寻见他
His lips an' eyelids black
他的唇与眼睑泛着青黑
He don't believe my speech
他不信我的劝诫
That lines can and should be drawn
说界限本应分明
Like if he had a shotgun
就像若他手持猎枪
The barrels would be sawn barrels would be sawn
枪管也早被锯断 枪管也早被锯断
Swallowed by the river
被河流吞噬
Swollen by the rains
被雨水涨满
That leakin' ol' computer
那台破旧的电脑
Of fingerprints and names
记录着指纹与姓名
Swimming in the river
在河流中游荡
That floods the neighborhood
淹没整个街区
I would call to you

But it would do no good would do no good
但无济于事 无济于事
Voting for the law

That's the general occupation
这是众人共同的职责
First comes the public safety
首要是守护公共安全
Second comes the nation

You won't believe me now
此刻你或许难以置信
But there's been some illumination

The wisest cops have realized

They f**ked the operation

A respected occupation

The anchor and foundation of multi corporations

What's right and wrong

The lawyers work in shifts work in good the sh
律师们轮班工作 处理那些肮脏勾当
Shakala

Speaking of the devil
说到那个魔鬼
He ain't been seen for years
他已多年不见踪影
'Cept every twenty minutes
却每隔二十分钟
He zooms between me ears
就在我脑海中闪现
I don't believe in books

But I read all the time
却终日埋头苦读
For ciphers to the riddles

An' reasons to the rhymes
