Smell the Roses - Roger Waters
Written by:Roger Waters
There's a mad dog pulling at his chain
疯狂不已的人不断在挣扎 想要脱离桎梏
A hint of danger in his eye
从他的眼中读出危险的信号
Alarm bells raging round his brain
警钟在他的脑海中肆虐狂响
And the chimney's broken in the sky
阵阵炊烟 在天空中四散开来
Wake up
快醒醒
Wake up and smell the roses
快醒醒 闻闻这玫瑰香
Close your eyes and pray this wind don't change
闭上双眼 祈祷这阵风多逗留片刻
There's nothing but screams in the field of dreams
在梦境里 除了歇斯底里外再无其他
Nothing but hope at the end of the road
路的尽头充满着希望
Nothing but gold in the chimney smoke
烟雾缭绕中蕴藏着珍宝
Come on honey it's real money
来吧 宝贝 这是真金白银啊
This is the room where they make the explosives
这是他们制作炸药的地方
Where they put your name on the bomb
就在这里 你要为这场战争负责
Here's where they bury the buts and the ifs
就在这里 他们斩断疑惑和踌躇
And scratch out words like right and wrong
有关是非对错闭口不谈
Wake up
醒醒
Wake up and smell the phosphorus
醒醒 战争开始 闻闻硝烟的味道
This is the room we keep a human heir
这就是我们培养人类后嗣的地方
Don't ask don't tell it couldn't be lost for us
不要问 不要说 只要相信我们就好
Yeah little less cash in the stash in the cupboard
没错 在衣橱的隐蔽处藏匿着少量现金
At the bottom of the stair
就在楼梯的底部
Money honey
都是钱 亲爱的
Wake up
醒醒
Wake up and smell the bacon
醒醒 闻闻成功的味道
Run your greasy fingers through her hair
用你那油腻的手指划过她的头发
This is the life that you have taken
这就是你为了金钱选择的生活
Just a line in the captain's log
在船长的日志里只是短短一句话
Just a whine from a resident dog
只是家养的狗发出的一句呜呜声
Another kid didn't make the grade
新人尚未达到标准
Come on honey it's a fair trade
好了 亲爱的 这是公平交易
Wake up
醒醒
Wake up and smell the roses
醒醒 闻闻这玫瑰香
Throw a photo on the funeral pyre
把照片扔进火葬的柴堆
Yeah now we can forget the threat she poses
现在我们可以忘记发生过什么 继续生活
Girl you know you couldn't get much higher
姑娘 你知道的 你无法自由翱翔 振翅高飞
