Field Commander Cohen

Field commander cohen,
戰地指揮官科恩

他是我們最重要的間諜
he was our most important spy.
在執勤時受了傷

把迷幻藥空投進外交雞尾酒派對
Wounded in the line of duty,
迫使卡斯特羅放棄了戰場與城堡

遠離這些事吧，像個男人一樣
Parachuting acid into diplomatic cocktail parties,
回歸瑣屑之事

比如等候室，排隊買票
Urging fidel castro to abandon fields and castles.
銀彈自殺

彌賽亞的潮汐
Leave it all and like a man,
乘坐種族過山車

以及那標榜為詩歌的，厭倦的各種形式
Come back to nothing special,
我知道你急需睡眠

也明白你生活艱難
Such as waiting rooms and ticket lines,
但太多的人已經沉淪
and Silver bullet suicides,
在你承諾要保衛之地
And messianic ocean tides,
我從未發問，只是聽說
And racial roller-coaster rides
你與窮人休戚與共
And other forms of boredom advertised as poetry.
我無意間聽到你的禱告

說你惟願如此，只需
I know you need your sleep now,
幾個感激忠誠的女人

最愛的唱歌富翁
I know your lifes been hard.
嫉妒之守護神和絕望之商販

為美元而工作
But many men have fallen
我知道你急需睡眠
Where you promised to stand guard.
也明白你生活艱難

但太多的人正在沉淪
I never asked but I heard that you
在你承諾要保衛之地
cast your lot along with the poor.
啊，來吧愛人，在我身旁躺下

我的愛人是真正的你啊
Have I overheard your prayer,
成為你最美妙的自我吧，只需片刻

直到我要求更多，我的孩子
That you be this and nothing more
讓其餘的自我盡皆錯妄吧
Than just some grateful faithful womans
讓他們顯形而來

直到舌頭遍嚐一切滋味
favourite singing millionaire,
直到愛被刺穿、絞死
The patron saint of envy and the grocer of despair,
直到一切自由終結，然後啊

我的愛啊
Working for the yankee dollar.
我的愛啊，我的愛啊，我的愛啊

I know you need your sleep now

I know your life's been hard

But many men are falling

Where you promised to stand guard

Ah, lover come and lie with me,
if my lover is who you really are,

And be your sweetest self awhile

until I ask for more, my child.
Then let the other selves be wrong,
yeah, let them manifest and come

Till love is pierced and love is hung,

Til every taste is on the tongue

And every kind of freedom done, then oh,

Oh my love

Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love.
