Lemonade

It was Cinco de Mayo
那五月五日節
Pillow case on his head
枕頭套在他的頭上
No more breathing time
沒有喘息的機會
An ambulance sped
一輛救護車疾馳著
It sped round every corner
疾行在每一個角落
Calling out his name
呼喊著他的名字

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
從後座的窗戶向一隻兔子開槍
Sat and watched in the summer corn grow
在夏天坐看玉米生長
Ate ice cream in a desert dream
在荒蕪的夢裡吃著冰淇淋
And got lost in father's singing
在父親的歌聲裡迷失方向
Too hot inside too hot outside
到處都是那麼炙熱
Lazy days when I said just go for a ride
慵懶的日子裡我提議去兜兜風
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
我們在心靈的湖泊徜徉
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade
我，我的老爸，還有他的檸檬水

Tim and Tina were my parents' names
蒂姆和蒂娜是我父母的名字
They got engaged they were inflamed
他們訂婚，激情燃燒
Seduced by the lie of butterflies
他們被蝴蝶的謊言引誘
How they shimmer, how they glimmer
多麼耀眼啊，它們搖曳的微光
Those butterflies
那些美麗的蝴蝶

We seven kids, we almost died
我們七個孩子，幾乎就要死去
Nearly put to death
被推向死亡的深淵
But lightning strike
然而一道閃電來襲
Instead there was hot pink
這裡的光景變成強烈的粉紅色
Flashes in the sky
在空中閃爍
We climb the rocks in snowing rain
雨雪中我們爬過重岩
In search of magic power
去找尋魔力

To heal our mother's pain
為了治愈母親的傷痛

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window

Sat and watched in the summer corn grow

Ate ice cream in a desert dream

Too hot inside too hot outside
到處都是那麼炙熱
