Umbilical Town
gary jules - umbilical town
Gary Jules-蜂窩鎮
I hear you've got a pocket full of words
我聽說你有一個裝信件的容器
你將它放進車庫
That you keep in the garage
和羽毛、煙火一起
花園裡,有著一個衝浪小鎮的英雄在散步
Together with the feather and the fireworks
那裡霓虹燈閃爍,人們都在喝著雞尾酒
他們為你做了一個飛機模型
A surftown hero who's got one foot in the garden
就像那架將你帶回林德伯格領域的飛機
你正在印度的路燈下細數著你的變化
Where the neon-lighted cocktail glasses bloom
“嘿,是我,我破產了...我能過來一下嗎?”
你可以做任何你想做的
And they built you a model airplane
在蜂窩鎮-
- 一個海濱的酒吧里
Like the one that brought you back to Lindbergh field
牙縫缺著大口的老安妮曾是我的朋友
她第三次重生了
Now you're counting your change by the streetlights on India
在隔壁那個小房間裡
她至少燒掉了50萬美金
'Hey, it's me again, I'm faded...could I please come over?'
這並不是沒有安慰的獎勵
這裡沒有到達清白的後門
You can do what you want
只有被你遺忘了的對你充滿的輕蔑的臉和名字
“嘿,我沒錢了,我破產了,我能過來一下嗎?”
In umbilical town
你可以做任何你想做的
在蜂窩鎮-
In a waterfront bar
- 一個海濱的酒吧里
我曾夢想著我們一起重生
Old gap-toothed Annie was a friend of mine
我曾想著這個
“一直潛伏在後巷裡”
The third time around she was born again
我曾想過
為什麼情況總比預想的糟糕
She must have burned at least a half-a-million dollars
拉斯柯爾尼科夫在樓梯上
對著那個在月亮上的人咆哮著
In the little rooms next door to wash-and-fold
他們說他失去理智
在市區外的郊外之間
And there ain't no consolation prize
很快就厭倦了
現在空氣中瀰漫著妥協的氣息
There is no backdoor to innocence
我們一直在路上
所以我在我所知道的唯一的生活獲取著安慰
Just the wild-eyed faces and names that you've forgotten
你可以做任何你想做的事
在蜂窩鎮-
'Hey, the money's gone, I'm broken, could I please come over?'
- 一個濱海的酒吧里
在蜂窩鎮...
You can do what you want
你可以做任何你想做的事
可以做任何你想做的事
In umbilical town
盡情去做吧
In that waterfront bar
I've been dreaming we were born together
I've been thinking about it
'Been lurking backstreets-kicking down alleyways
I've been thinking about it
How it's always worse than it appears
Raskolnikov's out on the stairs
Howling at the man in the moon
They say he lost control
Between the suburbs and the barrio
Tired from too much too soon
Now the air is thick with compromises
We're always on the way
So I take comfort in the only life I know
Well you can do what you want
In umbilical town
At the waterfront bar
In umbilical town
You can do what you want
You can do what you want
You can do what you want
