Grey Tickles, Black Pressure
I did not think I was
我从没想过
The one being addressed
电视上的
In hemorrhoid commercials
痔疮广告
On the TV set
都能提到我
I often stand and stare
我经常站在那
at nothing in the grocery store
眼神空洞地盯着货架
Because I do not know
因为我不知道
What to buy to eat any more
还有什么值得吃
And parapraxis
行为倒错
The order of the day
已成家常便饭
I never heard that word
我以前都不知道这还是个单词
Until tonight I have to say
直到今夜我亲自将它说出口
And I'm suppose to believe that there's some guy
我本相信有个无所不能的人
Who will take the pain away
能带走一切病痛
And there are children who have cancer
但还有那么多孩子罹患癌症
And so all bets are off
所以说世事难料
Cause I can't compete with that
因为这场仗我打不赢
So all bets are off
那就随缘吧
Cause I can't compete with that
因为命运总在捉弄人
I've got grey tickles and black pressure
灰色的隐痛与黑色的压力让我发疯
And I'd rather lose my arm inside of a corn thresher
我宁可让脱粒机绞断我的胳膊
Just like Uncle Paul
就像保罗叔叔那样
Just like Uncle Paul
就像保罗叔叔
I, I, I
我啊,我啊,我这样想
They wont be happy til
不摧毁一切
They tear down everything
它是不会罢休的
Which looks remotely cool
看着好像也挺酷
Or is older than two weeks
要不你体验两周试试?
You must be kidding me
你是在逗我吧
Except I do know better than to ask
但我知道总比直接了当的问要强得多
I can't believe I missed
不敢相信我错过了
New York during the 70's
七十年代的纽约
I could have gotten a head start
要不然在那个充满疾病的世界里
In the world of disease
我一定是第一个得这病的
I'm sure I would have contracted
我确信我被感染了
Every single solitary thing
每个细节我都确定
And there are children who have cancer
世界上还有那么多得了癌症的孩子呢
And so all bets are off
所以我不指望了
Cause I can't compete with that
命运操控着我
So all bets are off
就这样吧
Cause I can't compete with that
我是输家
They say let go let go let go
他们都说“放宽心放宽心”
You must learn to let go
你必须放宽心态
If I hear that ******* phrase again
我要是再他妈的听你们讲一次
This baby is gonna blow
我就把讲这话的
Into a million bit of bits
搓成末
Of tiny pieces don't you know
小的你都想不到
Just like my favorite scene in Scanners
就像《夺命凶灵》里我最喜欢的场景那样
Apparently there was an outcry of some sort today
很显然,现在仍有很强烈的抗议声
Which no-one heard incidentally and by the way
顺便一说,那种话没人会听
I have not had the strength
我没法坚强的接受
To leave my place in days or weeks
这么快就要离开我生活的地方
And I'll never understand
大概我永远都不能知道
Whats happening in the Middle East
中东到底是咋的了
And there are children who have cancer
世界上还有那么多得了癌症的小天使呢
And so all bets are off
所以就这么算了吧
Cause I can't compete with that
老天啊,我斗不过你
So all bets are off
那我随遇而安好了
Cause I can't compete with that
因为我就是打不过
I've got grey tickles and black pressure
灰色的隐痛和黑色的压力,挤压着我的心
And I'd rather lose my arm inside of a corn thresher
我宁可让脱粒机绞断我的胳膊
Just like Uncle Paul
就像保罗叔叔那样
Just like Uncle Paul
就像保罗叔叔
I, I, I
我啊,我啊,我这样想
I've got grey tickles and black pressure
头顶笼罩着灰色的隐痛和黑色的压力
And I'd rather lose my arm inside of a corn thresher
我宁可让脱粒机绞断我的胳膊
Just like Uncle Paul
就像保罗叔叔那样
Just like Uncle Paul
就像保罗叔叔
I, I, I
我啊,我啊,我这样想
