Work Everyday - Brother Ali

Damn man
该死 兄弟
I'm broker than an old VCR man
我穷得连老式录像机都不如
I need a job
我需要一份工作
Are they hiring at your job
你那儿还招人吗
I got a stack of red bills at my house
家里堆满了红色账单
It looks like Valentine's Day at the crib
屋里活像情人节装饰现场
My kids are eating left-over leftovers man
孩子们只能吃剩饭的剩饭
I can't fool them no more
我再也无法欺骗他们
It's job time
是时候找份工作了
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
My God there's got to be more to life than this
上帝啊 生活不该仅止于此
There's got to be a bigger reason that I exist
我存在的意义 定有更崇高的理由
Work to eat to earn my keep
为糊口而奔波劳碌
To ensure somewhere to sleep and spend the weekend buying sh*t
只为求得片瓦遮身 周末还得采购必需品
Don't need economists to know I need pot to piss
无需经济学家指点 我也知生存之艰
Follow politics man I ain't got time to think
政客的把戏 我哪有功夫分辨
What I got to set aside for my retirement
哪有余钱 为养老打算
Cop a double shift pay somebody to watch the kids
连轴转的班次 花钱请人照看孩子
Sick of all this but can't take an off day
厌倦这一切 却不敢停下喘息
Doctor's office I can't swing the co pay
诊所的门槛 我付不起自费金额
Trapped in a network luck just to get work
困在命运罗网中 只为求得一份工
They celebrate every week nobody gets hurt
他们每周庆祝无人受伤
Greed could never leave well enough alone
贪婪永远不知满足
They keep on squeezing till we bleed from every bone
压榨我们直到骨血榨干
And we'll strive hard and stress about the rent
我们拼命工作 为房租发愁
Probably still die poor and in debt without a cent but
最终可能仍负债累累 身无分文
I guess I'll carry my a** down to the county and see what they're talking about But
但我想还是得去政府看看情况
You know they treat you like you shot somebody just because you need a little help
你知道他们待你如罪犯 只因为你需要一点帮助
You're telling my you ain't never been down on your luck
你说你从未经历过霉运当头
Never tried to make them ends meet but just got stuck
从未为生计奔波却陷入困境
Never slaved at a gig like a bum with a cup
从未像乞丐般在街头卖命
Added all your pennies up and you still ain't had enough
攒尽每一分钱仍入不敷出
And the jobs full up they ain't hiring
工作机会全满 无人雇佣
I'm barely surviving not enough to get by with
我勉强维生 难以度日
Hunger is a constant problem stomach steady growling
饥饿如影随形 腹中鸣响不停
People getting shot in my environment
枪声在我的环境中此起彼伏
Study go to college is what them people hollering
人们总嚷嚷着要读书上大学
Too many road blocks in the way it's not an option
但前路太多阻碍 这并非可选之路
To say that it's impossible I would be lying
若说完全不可能 那是在说谎
But you ain't got a chance if you're not up in that top ten
但若进不了前十 就毫无希望
A couple got a scholarship but I am not them
有些人拿了奖学金 可我不是他们
Ain't got the skills to pay the bills so my pockets are thin
没有赚钱的本事 口袋空空如也
So until I cop a gig and my hardship ends
直到找到工作 才能结束这苦难
Fixing to line my self up at your welfare office again
又要去福利局门口排队等待救济
And I expect to be accepted as the man that I am
希望你们能尊重我作为一个人的尊严
Respectfully and appreciatively Ma'am
女士 我怀着感激之情恳请您
God damn you must be out of your mind
天啊 你们一定是疯了
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
People stressing here's the question
人们焦虑不安 问题摆在眼前
How they get people drinking tea in a recession
经济萧条时 他们怎还有闲情品茶
It's deception how absurd is this
这简直是荒谬的欺骗
How are so many poor people conservative
为何这么多穷人还如此保守
A pro artist I put it in the good music
我是真诚的艺术家 将心血注入音乐
A con artist job's to make you look stupid
而骗子只会让你显得愚蠢
Lookie here I'll teach you how to look trough it
看这里 我来教你如何识破骗局
First thing you need to know every con got a hook to it
首先要明白每个骗局都有诱饵
They seduce you with a little wealth
他们用蝇头小利诱惑你
Say you could have some of these crumbs for yourself
说这些残渣碎屑也能分你一杯羹
If the government doesn't make us help anyone else
只要政府不强迫我们救济他人
You stuck a red sign on your foreclosed house
你在被查封的房屋贴上红色标语
Make you think you're taking back your nation
让你误以为在重掌国家
Then they turn it over to a major corporation
转眼却将一切移交财阀集团
Those companies took the jobs overseas
跨国企业把岗位迁往海外
And you handed them the wallet out your pocket for free
你却自愿掏出钱包任人宰割
You're staring in the sky with dollar signs for eyes
你仰望天空 眼中只剩金钱符号
The blind right wing of a bird that can't fly
像折翼的鸟儿 只剩右翼徒劳扑腾
Just a peacock with a poked out gut
不过是只孔雀 肚皮被戳破的孔雀
Who's too fat to fly so his a** just strut but
肥胖得飞不起来 只能扭着屁股踱步
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
They're so criminal minded we've been blinded
他们如此罪恶 我们却被蒙蔽双眼
Looking for an honest job and can't find it
寻找正当工作却始终无果
They got a job bill we got a light bill
他们通过就业法案 我们却收到电费账单
If we don't pay ours our life is quite real
若无力支付 现实将残酷降临
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
Every day every day
日复一日 年复一年
Got to work every day
必须每天拼命工作
