Start the car, let's make a midnight run

Across the river to South London
穿過泰晤士河去倫敦南部
To dance to the latest hi- fi sound
跳著舞聽著那個最新的高保真音響
Of the bass, guitar and drum
奏著於貝斯、吉他和架子鼓的美妙音樂
Seeking out a rhythm that can take the tension off
尋找個能拿來的節奏
Stepping in and out of that crooked, crooked beat
腳上踩著那個扭曲的，扭曲的節拍
Take a piece of cloth, a coin for thirst
帶塊手帕，花上一個硬幣買水解渴
For the sweat will start to run
汗水將開始揮灑
With a cymbal splash, a word of truth
伴著小鈸聲和真話
And a rocking bass and drum
震撼的貝斯和架子鼓
Seeking out a rhythm that can take the tension on

Stepping in and out of that crooked, crooked beat

One by one they come on down
人們陸陸續續朝我們走來
From the tower blocks of my home town

Stepping with the rhythm of the musical beat

Drowning out the pressures of the crooked street

Seeking out a rhythm that can take the tension on

Where cars patrol this crooked beat

Badges flash and sirens roll
