Tweeter and the monkey man were hard up for cash
They stayed up all night selling coc*ine and hash
他们整夜未眠,贩卖着那些违禁品
To an undercover cop who had a sister named Jan
卖给了一个卧底警察,他有个妹妹叫简
For reasons unexplained she loved the monkey man
原因不明,她却爱上了那个猴子男
Tweeter was a boy scout before she went to Vietnam
Tweeter曾是童子军,直到她去了越南
And found out the hard way nobody gives a damn
她艰难地发现,没人在乎她的苦难
They knew that they found freedom just across the jersey line
他们知道,自由就在新泽西的边界线
So they hopped into a stolen car took highway nintynine
于是跳进一辆偷来的车,驶上了99号公路
And the walls came down all the way to hell
而他们的世界崩塌,一路坠入地狱
Never saw them when they're standing
从未见过他们站立的身影
Never saw them when they fell
也未曾目睹他们倒下
The undercover cop never liked the monkey man
卧底警察一直厌恶那个“猴子人”
Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in the can
甚至从童年起,就想看他被关进牢房
Jan got married at fourteen to a racketeer named Bill
简十四岁就嫁给了一个叫比尔的骗子
She made secret calls to the monkey man from a mansion on the hill
她从山上的豪宅里偷偷打电话给“猴子人”
It was out on thunder road tweeter at the wheel
在雷声轰鸣的路上,特威特握着方向盘
They crashed into paradise they could hear them tires squeal
他们撞进了天堂,轮胎发出刺耳的尖叫
The undercover cop pulled up and said everyone of you's a liar
便衣警察开车过来 说你们每个人都在撒谎
If you don't surrender now it's gonna go down to the wire
如果现在不投降 事情就会一发不可收拾
And the walls came down all the way to hell
而他们的世界崩塌,一路坠入地狱
Never saw them when they're standing
从未见过他们站立的身影
Never saw them when they fell
也未曾目睹他们倒下
An ambulance rolled up a state trooper close behind
救护车驶来 州警紧随其后
Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind
特威特夺走了他的枪 让他精神崩溃
The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree
便衣警察被绑在树上
Near the souvenir stand by the old abandoned factory
在旧废弃工厂旁的纪念品摊位附近
Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit
第二天,卧底警察紧追不舍
He was taking the whole thing personal
他把这一切都当作私人恩怨
He didn't care about the loot
他不在乎那些赃物
Jan had told him many times it was you to me who taught
简曾多次告诉他,是你教会了我
In jersey anything's legal as long as you don't get caught
在新泽西,只要不被抓到,什么都合法
And the walls came down all the way to hell
而他们的世界崩塌,一路坠入地狱
Never saw them when they're standing
从未见过他们站立的身影
Never saw them when they fell
也未曾目睹他们倒下
Someplace by Rahway prison they ran out of gas
在拉威监狱附近,他们耗尽了汽油
The undercover cop had cornered them said boy you didn't
便衣警察将他们逼入绝境,说小子,你没想到
Think that this could last
这一切会如此短暂
Jan jumped out of bed said there's someplace I gotta go
简从床上跳起,说有地方她必须去
She took a gun out of the drawer and said it's best if you don't know
她从抽屉里拿出一把枪,说你最好别知道
The undercover cop was found face down in a field
便衣警察被发现面朝下倒在田野里
The monkey man was on the river bridge using tweeter as a shield
猴子男在河桥上用推特作为掩护
Jan said to the monkey man I'm not fooled by tweeter's curl
简对猴子男说,我不会被卷曲的推特欺骗
I knew him long before he ever became a jersey girl
在他成为泽西女孩之前,我就认识他了
And the walls came down all the way to hell
而他们的世界崩塌,一路坠入地狱
Never saw them when they're standing
从未见过他们站立的身影
Never saw them when they fell
也未曾目睹他们倒下
Now the town of Jersey City is quieting down again
如今泽西城再次安静下来
I'm sitting in a gambling club called the lion's den
我坐在一家名为狮子巢的赌场里
The TV set been blown up every bit of it is gone
电视机被炸得粉碎 一切都化为乌有
Ever since the nightly news show that the monkey man was on
自从那个猴子人上了晚间新闻后
I guess I'll to to Florida and get myself some sun
我想我得去佛罗里达 晒晒太阳
There ain't no more opportunity here everything's been done
这里再也没有机会 一切都已结束
Sometime I think of tweeter sometime I think of Jan
有时我想起特威特 有时我想起简
Sometime I don't think about nothing but the monkey man
有时我什么都不想 只想着那个猴子人
And the walls came down all the way to hell
而他们的世界崩塌,一路坠入地狱
Never saw them when they're standing
从未见过他们站立的身影
Never saw them when they fell
也未曾目睹他们倒下
And the walls came down all the way to hell
而他们的世界崩塌,一路坠入地狱
Never saw them when they're standing
从未见过他们站立的身影
Never saw them when they fell
也未曾目睹他们倒下
