I know a fat old policeman

He's always on our street

A fat and jolly red faced man
有一个这样胖嘟嘟又满面红光的人
He really is a treat
真是一件乐事
He's too kind for a policeman
他是一个非常和善的人
He's never known to frown
从来不会皱眉头
And everybody says
每个人都说
He is the happiest man in town

Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
He laughs upon point duty
他工作时笑
He laughs upon his beat
不工作时也笑
He laughs at everybody
当他走在街上
When he's walking in the street
他对路上遇见的每个人都笑
He never can stop laughing
他的笑从来没有停止过
He says he's never tried

But once he did arrest a man
但有一次 他抓捕了一个犯人
And laughed until he cried

Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
His jolly face is wrinkled
笑纹布满他的脸庞
And then he shut his eyes
他闭上眼睛
He opened his great big mouth
张开大嘴
It was a wonderous size
当你散步时
He said I must arrest you
他说我要逮捕你
He didn't know what for
但是他也不知道原因
And then he started laughing
然后他就开始哈哈大笑
Until he cracked his fat old jaw
笑得合不拢嘴
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
So if you chance to meet him
因此当你途径这个小镇
While walking around the town
如果你有机会遇见他
Shake him by his fat old hand
只要和他握握手
And give him half a crown
稍微夸夸他
His eyes will beam and sparkle
他就会两眼放光
He'll gurgle with delight
十分开怀
And then you'll start him laughing
然后你就会听到
With all his blessed might
他欢快的笑声
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha
