Workin' At The Carwash Blues - Jim Croce
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Well I had just got out from the county prison
刚从郡立监狱重获自由
Doing ninety days for non-support
因未尽抚养义务服刑九十昼夜
Tried to find me an executive position
妄想谋得高管职位
But no matter how smooth I talked
纵使舌绽莲花
They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was a genius
无人愿信我天赋异禀
The man say we got all that we can use
雇主冷言:人才已饱和
Now I got them steadily depressing
如今终日沉溺在
Low down mind messing
令人窒息的卑微煎熬
Working at the car wash blues
洗车行的忧郁生活
Well I should be sitting in an air
我本该坐在空调办公室
Conditioned office in a swivel chair
在转椅上悠闲度日
Talking some trash to the secretaries
和秘书们闲聊调情
Saying here now mama come on over here
说着"宝贝过来这边"
Instead I'm stuck here rubbing these fenders with a rag
却只能拿着抹布擦车
And walking home in soggy old shoes
穿着湿透的旧鞋走回家
With them steadily depressing low down mind messing
被这令人沮丧的低落情绪折磨
Working at the car wash blues
洗车行的忧郁生活
You know a man of my ability
以我这般才华横溢
He should be smoking on a big cigar
本该叼着雪茄享受人生
But till I get myself straight
但在我重获自由之前
I guess Ill just have to wait
只能继续默默等待
In my rubber suit a-rubbin these cars
穿着橡胶服擦拭这些车辆
Well all I can do is a shake my head
唉 我只能无奈摇头
You might not believe that its true
这荒诞现实令人难以置信
For working at this end of niagara falls
在这尼亚加拉瀑布的尽头工作
Is an undiscovered howard hughes
我本该是未被发现的霍华德·休斯
So baby don't expect to see me
所以宝贝 别指望看到我
With no double martini in
手捧双份马提尼
Any high-brow society news
出现在上流社会的新闻里
Cause I got them steadily depressing
因为我只有这令人沮丧的
Low down mind messing
令人窒息的卑微煎熬
Working at the car wash blues
洗车行的忧郁生活
So baby don't expect to see me
所以宝贝 别指望看到我
With no double martini in
手捧双份马提尼
Any high-brow society news
出现在上流社会的新闻里
Cause I got them steadily depressing
因为我只有这令人沮丧的
Low down mind messing
令人窒息的卑微煎熬
Working at the car wash blues
洗车行的忧郁生活
Yeah I got them steadily depressing
是啊 我正饱受这无休止的压抑
Low down mind messing
令人窒息的卑微煎熬
Working at the car wash blues
洗车行的忧郁生活
