Crossroads (2023 Remaster) - Tom Waits
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Now George was a good straight boy
乔治曾是个正直的好孩子
To begin with but there was bad blood
但骨子里流淌着罪恶的血脉
In him someway he got into
不知怎的他染上了
The magic bullets and that leads straight to
魔法子弹 那东西直通
Devil's work just like m*******a
恶魔的勾当 就像***
Leads to h****n you think yo ucan take
终将堕入深渊 你以为能掌控
Them bullets or leave 'em do you
那些子弹 或随时戒掉
Just save a few for your bad days
却总留几颗应付崩溃时光
Well now we all have those bad days
我们都有过糟糕的日子
When you can't shoot for sh*t
当你什么都射不准的时候
The more of them magics you use
越是依赖那些魔法子弹
The more bad days you have without them
没有它们日子就越发难熬
So it comes down finally to all
最终你会发现
Your days being bad without the bullets
没有子弹的日子全都黯淡无光
It's magics or nothing
要么魔法子弹 要么一无所有
Time to stop chippying around
是时候停止犹豫不决了
And kidding yourself
自欺欺人
Kid you're hooked heavy as lead
孩子 你已深陷其中无法自拔
And that's where old George found himself
这就是老乔治的处境
Out there at the crossroads
站在十字路口
Molding the Devil's bullets
铸造恶魔的子弹
Now a man figures it's his bullets so it will
他以为子弹听命于己
Hit what he wants to hit
必能击中目标
But it don't always work that way
但世事岂能尽如人意
You see some bullets is special
有些子弹与众不同
For a single aim
只为特定目标而生
A certain stag or a certain person
锁定某只雄鹿或某个人
And no matter where you are
无论你身处何方
That's where the bullet will end up
子弹终将抵达宿命之地
And in the moment of aiming
在瞄准的瞬间
The gun turns into a dowser's wand
枪械化作占卜魔杖
And point where the bullet wants to go
指向子弹渴望的归途
George Schmid was moving in
乔治·施密德正陷入癫狂
A series of convulsive spasms like someone
全身痉挛抽搐不止 宛如
With an epileptic fit with his
癫痫发作般面目扭曲
Face distorted and his eyes wild like a
双眼狂乱似一匹
Lassoed horse bracing his legs
被套索勒住的惊马 双腿僵直
But something kept pulling him on And now
但某种力量仍拖拽着他前行 此刻
He is picking up the skulls
他正拾起森森白骨
And making the circle
排列成邪恶法阵
I guess old George didn't rightly
我想老乔治当时并不明白
Know what he's getting himself into
自己究竟陷入了怎样的境地
The fit was on him and it
毒瘾发作控制着他
Carried him right to the crossroads
将他径直带往了十字路口
