Low Life In High Places (Live at Shepherds Bush Empire, London 8th December 1994) - Thunder
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Mama tell your children not to go
妈妈 告诉孩子们别去那里
Down to the city where the desperate people go
那座城市 满是绝望的人们
And mama don't let them stray
妈妈 别让他们迷失方向
They won't find peace of mind in such a lonely place
在那孤独之地 他们找不到安宁
Wannabes and losers all trying to get a break
妄想者和失败者 都在拼命寻找机会
They don't give a damn they'll do whatever it takes
他们毫不在乎 会不择手段
If they climb the ladder they get to play for higher stakes
若爬上高位 就能赌上更大的筹码
That's why there's low life in high places
这就是为何高处也有卑劣之徒
Mama things have changed since you were young
妈妈 这世道已与你年轻时不同
When you scream in the dead of night
当你在深夜尖叫呼救
Now no one ever comes
如今却无人理会
And a poor man he's cast as the villan and a thief
穷人总被当作恶棍和小偷
See him down on the street begging for enough to eat
看他流落街头 乞讨一口饭吃
Waiting on the corner I saw her waiting for the man
街角等待时 我看见她在等那个男人
When the limo pulled up I saw what was changing hands
当豪车停下 我看见他们在交易什么
I should've tried to warn her and make her understand
我本该警告她 让她明白这一切
There is low life in high places
高位者亦有卑劣行径
There is low life like you never even knew
世间污浊超乎你的想象
There is low life and it lives in me and you
这卑劣根性深植你我心中
But we don't let it through
但我们不让它显露
Don't let them go you've got to have some pity
别让他们去 你该心存怜悯
Don't you let them go
千万别让他们去
You've got to keep them away from the big bad city
必须让他们远离 这座罪恶之都
Still waiting on the corner
仍在街角苦苦等待
I saw her waiting for the man
我看见她在等候那个男人
When the limo pulled up
当豪华轿车缓缓停下
I saw what was changing hands
我目睹了那场肮脏交易
I should've tried to warn her
我本该试着警告她
And make her understand
让她明白这一切
Mama tell your children not to go
妈妈 告诉孩子们别去那里
Down to the city
那个城市
Where the desperate people go
那里尽是走投无路的人
And mama don't you let them stray
妈妈 别让他们迷失方向
They won't find
他们找不到
Peace of mind in such a lonely place
在这孤独之地寻得内心安宁
