Tom Waits - Tom Traubert's Blues
(Four sheets to the wind in Copenhagen)
湯姆魏茲──湯姆托伯特的藍調 (爛醉哥本哈根)
Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon did
爛醉如泥、傷痕累累,這並非月亮惹的禍
Got what I paid for now
現在我遭到了應得的報應
See you tomorrow, hey Frank can I borrow a couple of bucks from you?
明天見了,嘿法蘭克我能不能跟你借點盤纏用用?
To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
讓我捲起舖蓋去流浪、捲起舖蓋去流浪
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
你我一起捲起舖蓋去流浪吧
I'm an innocent victim of a blinded alley
我是身陷死巷中的無辜受害者
And tired of all these soldiers here
早已對身邊所有軍人感到厭倦
No one speaks English and everything's broken
沒一個人會說英文、沒一件東西不破損
And my Stacys are soaking wet
我的寶貝名鞋也浸得溼透
To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
捲起舖蓋去流浪、捲起舖蓋去流浪
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
你我一起捲起舖蓋去流浪吧
Now the dogs are barking and the taxi cab's parking
現在看門狗吠著、計程車停著
A lot they can do for me
他們可給我幫得上大忙
I begged you to stab me, you tore my shirt open
我曾求你一刀刺死我,你只是扯開了我的衣襟
And I'm down on my knees tonight
而今夜我再度跪下了雙膝
Old Bushmill's I staggered, you buried the dagger
威士忌讓我步履蹣跚,而你埋起了匕首
in your silhouette window light
在你窗燈的剪影中
To go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
捲起舖蓋去流浪、捲起舖蓋去流浪
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
你我一起捲起舖蓋去流浪吧
Now I lost my Saint Christopher now that I've kissed her
親吻了她之後我丟了我的護身符
And the one-armed bandit knows
角子老虎機懂得
And the maverick Chinaman and the cold-blooded signs
做黑生意的中國獨行俠以及冷血告示牌
And the girls down by the strip-tease shows
還有脫衣女郎們也懂得
Go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
起舖蓋去流浪、捲起舖蓋去流浪
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
你我一起捲起舖蓋去流浪吧
No, I don't want your sympathy
不,我不需要你的同情
The fugitives say that the streets aren't for dreaming now
亡命天涯者說道現在的市街已不是作夢的場所
Manslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memories
連鎖殺人網和販賣回憶的鬼魂
They want a piece of the action anyhow
他們無論如何都要來分一杯羹
Go waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
捲起舖蓋去流浪、捲起舖蓋去流浪
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
你我一起捲起舖蓋去流浪吧
And you can ask any sailor and the keys from the jailor
你可以去問任何水手或是獄卒手中的鑰匙
And the old men in wheelchairs know
坐輪椅的老人們也清楚
That Matilda's the defendant, she killed about a hundred
我的行囊就是案中被告,殺害百餘人的劊子手
And she follows wherever you may go
不論我逃到天涯海角它都不會放過我
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
捲起舖蓋去流浪、捲起舖蓋去流浪
You'll go a waltzing Matilda with me
你我一起捲起舖蓋去流浪吧
And it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplace
而我的行囊是一只通往某處旅店的破爛舊行李箱
And a wound that will never heal
以及一個永遠不會癒合的傷
No prima donna
沒有首席女主角出場
The perfume is on an old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskey
襯衫上只沾滿了香水、血跡和威士忌酒漬
And goodnight to the street sweepers,
晚安了,清道夫們
the night watchman flame keepers
晚安了,守夜人和顧火人
and goodnight to Matilda too
我的行囊,你也晚安了
