Hot Plate Heaven At The Green Hotel - Frank Zappa
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I used to have a job
我曾有份体面工作
An' I was doin' very well
日子过得风生水起
Depression came along
经济寒冬突然降临
An' everybody start to yell
哀鸿遍野怨声四起
"Where'd they go them good ol' days
"那些黄金年代去哪了
'An all that crap we used to sell "
我们贩卖的美梦呢"
Now I'm in Hot-Plate Heaven
如今蜗居"热板天堂"
At the Green Hotel
破败的绿茵旅馆里
Republicans is fine
共和党看似美好
If you're a multi-millionaire
若你是千万富豪
Democrats is fair
民主党看似公平
If all you own is what you wear
若你身无长物
Neither of 'em's REALLY right
两党都不算正确
'Cause neithor of 'em CARE
因他们漠不关心
'Bout that Hot-Plate Heaven
那贫民窟的生活
'Cause they ain't been there
他们从未体会
They really oughta go
他们真该亲自来看看
'N find out how the hall-way smell --
走廊里弥漫着什么味道——
They'd benefit to know
这对他们大有裨益
'Bout what the bums in there could tell
听听流浪汉们的诉说
Of course we're only dreamin'
当然我们只是在做梦
But I s'pose it's just as well
但我想这样也好
That's ALL you get to dream
在这绿茵旅馆里
Up in the Green Hotel
能做的也只有做梦
Nature didn't put me here
这并非命运的安排
An' neither did my fate --
也不是上天的旨意——
I musta been some even ol'
我准是得罪了某个
Republican candidate
共和党的老政客
He's over here in Washington
他在华盛顿逍遥自在
But I wish he was in HELL
我却希望他下地狱
'Cause I'm in Hot-Plate Heaven
在这"绿茵旅馆"里
At the Green Hotel
破败的绿茵旅馆里
Things is slightly better now;
境况稍有好转
They hope we will forget
他们希望我们遗忘
The misery of 'TRICKLE DOWN'
涓滴理论的苦难
An' jelly-bean etiquette
与糖果政治的荒唐
The Regal Presidential Style
帝王般的总统作派
Has simply not worn well
早已不合时宜
An' neither has my rags
正如我褴褛的衣衫
Up in the Green Hotel
能做的也只有做梦
