以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供

Written by：T. S. Eliot/Andrew Lloyd Webber

Macavity's a mystery cat he's called the hidden paw

麦克维蒂是神秘猫 人称隐秘之爪

For he's a master criminal who can defy the law

他是犯罪大师 能将法律玩弄股掌

He's the bafflement of scotland yard the flying squad's despair

苏格兰场束手无策 飞鹰队也绝望彷徨

For when they reach the scene of crime macavity's not there

每当他们赶到现场 麦克维蒂早已离场

Macavity macavity there's no one like macavity

麦克维蒂 麦克维蒂 世上再无第二只

He's broken every human law he breaks the law of gravity

他践踏人间律法 连重力法则也漠视

His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare

悬浮之术惊世骇俗 苦行僧也瞠目结舌

And when you reach the scene of crime macavity's not there

待你抵达犯罪现场 他早已消失无痕

You may seek him in the basement you may look up in the air

你或许翻遍地下室 又或寻遍天际云端

But I tell you once and once again macavity's not there

但我再三告诫你 麦克维蒂不在那里

Macavity's a ginger cat he's very tall and thin

姜黄色的瘦高身影 是麦克维蒂的模样

You would know him if you saw him for his eyes are sunken in

凹陷的双眼让你 一眼就能认出他来

His brow is deeply lined in thought his head is highly domed

紧锁的眉头下藏着 高耸如穹顶的额头

His coat is dusty from neglect his whiskers are uncombed

蓬乱的胡须衬着 沾满尘埃的皮毛

He sways his head from side to side with movements like a snake

他像蛇般左右摇摆 晃动着他的脑袋

And when you think he's half asleep he's always wide awake

你以为他半梦半醒 实则他无比清醒

Macavity macavity there's no one like macavity

麦克维蒂 麦克维蒂 世上再无第二只

He is a fiend in feline shape a monster of depravity

他是披着猫皮的恶魔 堕落至极的怪物

You may meet him in a by street you may see him in the square

你或许在小巷与他擦肩 或在广场瞥见他的身影

But when a crime's discovered then macavity's not there

可当罪行败露时 麦克维蒂早已销声匿迹

He's outwardly respectable I know he cheats at cards

他外表体面光鲜 但我知道他牌桌作弊

And his footprints are not found in any files of scotland yard's

苏格兰场的档案里 找不到他的蛛丝马迹

And when the larder's looted or the jewel cases rifled

当储藏室遭洗劫 珠宝盒被翻得凌乱狼藉

Or when the milk is missing or another peke's been stifled

当牛奶不翼而飞 或又一只小狗窒息断气

Or the greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis past repair

温室玻璃碎裂 藤架破损难修

There's the wonder of the thing macavity's not there

神奇的是现场 麦克维蒂踪迹全无

Macavity macavity there's no one like macavity

麦克维蒂 麦克维蒂 世上再无第二只

There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity

从未有猫能将虚伪与优雅如此交融

He always has an alibi and one or two to spare

他总有完美不在场证明 甚至备好双重借口

Whatever time the deed took place macavity wasn't there

无论罪行何时发生 他永远置身事外

And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known

据说所有恶名昭彰的猫儿

I might mention mungojerrie

比如蒙哥杰瑞也难企及

I might mention griddlebone

或许该提下那些爪牙喽啰

Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the time

不过是那猫主子的提线傀儡

Just controls the operations the napoleon of crime

操纵全局的犯罪界拿破仑

Macavity macavity there's no one like macavity

麦克维蒂 麦克维蒂 世上再无第二只

He's a fiend in feline shape

猫形皮囊下藏着恶魔

A monster of depravity

堕落扭曲的畸形怪物

You may meet him in a by street

暗巷转角可能与他擦肩

You may see him in the square

广场人群或许惊鸿一瞥

But when a crime's discovered then macavity

但每当罪行败露时 麦克维蒂

Macavity macavity macavity

麦克维蒂 麦克维蒂 麦克维蒂

When a crime's discovered then macavity's not there

案发之时 麦克维蒂总不在场
