Written by:Lorenz Hart/Richard Rodgers
When russia was white
It was white for the classes
白色属于贵族阶级
And black for the masses
黑色留给平民大众
Unfortunate asses
可怜如牛马般劳碌
All wealth belonged to few
财富尽归少数人所有
When England was Tudor
当英格兰处于都铎王朝
The king and his cronies
国王与他的亲信们
Had cocktails at Tony's
在托尼酒馆畅饮鸡尾酒
The poor had baloneys
穷人只能啃食劣质香肠
And that's how England grew
英格兰便是如此成长
Sing lah and huzzah for the poor folks
为贫苦百姓欢呼歌唱
As long as the poor folks are your folks
只要贫民是你的同胞
Finer things are for the finer folk
精致之物属于上流社会
Thus society began
社会阶级由此形成
Caviar for peasants is a joke
鱼子酱对农夫只是笑谈
It's too good for the average man
普通人不配享用珍馐
Supper clubs are for the upper folk
晚宴俱乐部只为贵族开放
Packed like sardines in a can
拥挤如罐头里的沙丁鱼
Through the smoke you get your check and choke
烟雾弥漫中领薪却喘不过气
It's too good for the average man
普通人不配享用珍馐
Each poor man has a wife he must stick to
穷汉只能守着糟糠之妻
Men of fashion can be cocky
纨绔子弟趾高气扬
To be caught in flagrante delecto
纵情享乐时被抓现行
Is much too good for the average monkey
此等艳遇哪轮得到凡夫俗子
All night parties drinking like a lord
通宵宴饮挥霍如王侯
Fit into our social plan
融入我们上流社会的蓝图
Waking in the alcoholic ward
从酒精病房中醒来
Is too good for the average man
对普通人已是奢侈
Fancy nerves are for the fancy class
精致的神经属于精致的阶级
Since psychiatry began
自精神医学诞生起
Neurostania isn't for the mass
神经衰弱症不属于大众
It's too good for the average man
普通人不配享用珍馐
Rich old age can blossom like a rose
富足的晚年如玫瑰盛放
Plastic surgeons have a plan
整形医生早有预谋
Cutting up your face to spite your nose
削骨垫鼻只为虚荣
It's too good for the average man
普通人不配享用珍馐
Lots of kids for a poor wife or dandy
贫妻多子 纨绔风流
Girls of fashion can be choosy
名媛淑女精挑细选
Birth control and the modus operandi
避孕之术 机关算尽
Are much too good for the average floozy
风尘女子岂配享用
Psychoanalysts are all the world
精神分析风靡全球
Rich men pay them all they can
富人们挥金如土 随心所欲
Waking up to find that he's a girl
醒来却发现她是个姑娘
It's too good for the average man
普通人不配享用珍馐
