Sleep The Clock Around

And the moment will come when composure returns
此刻歸於平靜
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
當你面對世界，倚靠圍牆
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
你的思緒游離於天際中二十碼遠
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
在自由之山，時尚之橋

用好奇的目光打量著走在泥濘小道上的她
Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
你一生之中首遇無話可說
And for once in your life you've got nothing to say
只因此時遇到她
And could this be the time when somebody will come?
自嘲自己一無是處
To say, 'Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone'
偷得浮生半日閒

閱讀著夢中女孩的來信
Take a walk in the park, take a Valium pill
還有比這更有意義的一天
Read the letter you got from the memory girl
竟比牛奶還要美味
But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
你深信無疑，深信無疑
Yeah,it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
你將旗開得勝

竟是美國的災難之旗
And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
你會去嘗試，男孩，我知道你也會付諸行動
And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
清晨你憶起在她的沙龍之上
Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
有自己想要的一本書
After all that you've done, boy, I know you're going to pay
但是那地卻遠離人群

他人的幫助顯得遙不可及
In the morning you come to the ladies' salon
這個難題將會一直困擾你有人會說
To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne
趁頭腦清醒，解決這些困擾
But the people are living far away from the place
如果放下筆，將煩惱拋之於腦後
Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
此刻將會到來，你將因此閃耀

此刻煩惱以無，人有所得
And the puzzle will last 'till somebody will say
人們因這一刻的到來而感到高心
' There's a lot to be done while your head is still young'
而你也將找到屬於自己的樂園
If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
發覺美夢初醒
Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
美夢初醒

Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
You can look at yourself sleep the clock around

You sleep the clock around
