Water’s Edge - Nick Cave

They take apart their bodies like toys for the local boys
他们把自己碎尸万段就像当地男孩的玩具
Because they're always there at the edge of the water
因为他们总是在水边
They come from the capitol these city girls go way down
她们来自国会大厦这些都市女孩声名远扬
Where the stones meet the sea
在石头与大海交汇的地方
And all you young girls where do you hide
你们这些年轻女孩你藏在哪里
Down by the water in the restless tide
在不平静的潮汐中随波逐流
And the local boys hide on the mound and watch
当地的男孩躲在土堆上看着
Reaching for the speech and the word to be heard
渴望吐露心声渴望让别人听到我的话语
And the boys grow hard hard to be heard
男孩们越来越冷漠难以被人倾听
Hard to be heard as they reach for the speech
当他们准备演讲时难以被人听见
And search for the word on the water's edge
在水边搜寻一个字
But you grow old and you grow cold
但你会变老你会变得冷漠
Yea you grow old and you grow cold

They would come in their hordes these city girls
他们成群结队地来找我这些都市女孩
With white strings flowing from their ears
白色的线从他们的耳朵里飘出来
As the local boys behind the mound
就像土堆后面的本地男孩一样
Think long and hard about the girls from the capitol
好好想想那些来自国会大厦的女孩
Who dance at the water's edge shaking their asses
在水边起舞扭动电臀
And all you young lovers where do you hide
年轻的恋人们你们藏在哪里
Down by the water in the restless tide
在不平静的潮汐中随波逐流
With a bible of tricks they do with their legs
他们用双脚做的那些把戏
The girls reach for the speech and the speech to be heard
女孩们伸出手想要表达自己的心声
To be hard the local boys teem down the mound
要想狠一点当地的男孩蜂拥而至
And seize the girls from the capitol
把国会大厦里的女孩带走
Who shriek at the edge of the water
在水边呐喊
Shriek to speak and reach for the speech

But you grow old and you grow cold

Yea you grow old and you grow cold

You grow old

Their legs wide to the world like bibles open

To be speared and taking their bodies apart like toys

They dismantle themselves by the water's edge
