The Party
Honey, the party, you went away quickly
亲爱的,那次聚会你那么快就走了
But oh, that's the trouble with ticking and talking
但那就是问题所在呀:时间滴滴答答地走
I lick the ice cube from your empty glass
我舔着你那空杯子里面的冰块
Oh, we've stayed much too late
噢我们呆得太久了
Till they're cleaning the ashtrays
直到他们开始收拾餐具
Do you have change or a button or cash?
你有零钱吗?或者零头?现金呢?
Oh, my pockets hang out like two surrender flags
我口袋已经空空如也,就像两面投降用的旗子
Oh, but I'd pay anything to keep my conscience clean
但是我愿意承担任何费用:为了一保我良心的清白
I'm keeping my eye on the exit sign, steady now
我还盯着那个出口呢,我还清醒着呢
How did we get here?
我们怎么到这儿来的?
With creaks in these chairs
这些椅子嘎吱地响
Oh, there aren't enough hands to point all the fingers
我们都自顾不暇了,就别互相指责了
But I sit transfixed by a hole in your tee shirt
我惊慌不定地坐着,坐在你衣服破了洞的一旁
Oh, I've said much too much and they're trying to sweep up
我已经说得足够多了——现在他们也准备开始了
