歌词翻译 (英文 → 中文)
战争时期的生活
听说有一辆装满武器的货车
已经打包好准备出发
听说有一些坟墓在公路旁边
一个没有人知道的地方
远处传来枪声
我现在已经习惯了
我曾住在棕石住宅里,曾住在贫民区
我在城里住过的每个角落都有我的足迹
这不是聚会,这不是迪斯科
这不是闹着玩的
没有时间跳舞或是爱情
我现在没时间
把消息传给接收者
希望总有一天会得到回答
我有三本护照,几个签证
你甚至不知道我的真名
在山丘上方,卡车正在装载
一切准备就绪
我在白天睡觉,晚上工作
我可能永远回不了家
这不是聚会,这不是迪斯科
这不是闹着玩的
这不是Mudd俱乐部或CBGB
我现在没时间
听说过休斯顿?听说过底特律?
听说过匹兹堡,宾夕法尼亚州?
你应该知道不要站在窗户旁边
有人可能看到你在那里
我有些杂货,一些花生酱
可以维持几天
但我没有扬声器,没有
耳机,没有唱片可以播放
为什么要上大学?为什么要上夜校?
这一次会不同
我不能写信,不能发明信片
我什么也写不了
这不是聚会,这不是迪斯科
这不是闹着玩的
我想亲吻你,我想拥抱你
我现在没时间
运输中出了问题,通过了路障
我们与人群融为一体
我们有电脑,我们正在窃听电话线
我知道那是不允许的
我们穿得像学生,我们穿得像家庭主妇
或是穿着西装打领带
我已经多次改变了我的发型
我不知道自己长什么样子了!
你让我颤抖,我感到如此温柔
我们是一个相当不错的团队
不要过度疲劳,我会开车
你应该睡会儿觉
获得指示,按照方向走
然后你应该改变你的地址
也许明天,也许后天
无论你认为最好的是什么
我烧掉了所有的笔记本,这些笔
原始歌词 (English)
Life During Wartime
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some grave sites, out by the highway
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in the ghetto
I've lived all over this town
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now
Transmit the message, to the receiver
Hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a couple of visas
You don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, the trucks are loading
Everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime
I might not ever get home
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
This ain't no Mudd Club, or CBGB
I ain't got time for that now
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
Somebody might see you up there
I got some groceries, some peanut butter
To last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no
Headphones, ain't got no records to play
Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time
Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard
I can't write nothing at all
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
I'd like to kiss you, I'd love you hold you
I ain't got no time for that now
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock
We blended with the crowd
We got computer, we're tapping phone lines
I know that that ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives
Or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle, so many times now
I don't know what I look like!
You make me shiver, I feel so tender
We make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving
You ought to get you some sleep
Get you instructions, follow directions
Then you should change your address
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day
Whatever you think is best
Burned all my notebooks, what good are
Notebooks? They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace
The burning keeps me alive
Try to stay healthy, physical fitness
Don't want to catch no disease
Try to be careful, don't take no chances
You better watch what you say
