The Home Stretch - Loudon Wainwright III
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
If the day off doesn't get you
Then the bad reviewer does
那个刻薄的乐评人又来刁难
At least you've been a has been
至少你曾辉煌过
And not just a never was
而非从未被认可
And you know it's not a mountain
你知道这并非高山
But no mole hill is this big
但小土丘也不该如此沉重
And you promise to quit drinking
你发誓要戒掉酒精
As you light another cig
却又点燃新一支烟
Once again you're in the home stretch
再一次 你临近终点线
But you're not sure where you live
但你已记不清家在何方
You recall a small apartment
只依稀记得那间狭小公寓
And a government you give
还有你曾向政府
Large amounts of money to
缴纳的大笔金钱
So you're allowed to stay
只为换取暂留的权利
And rest until you're well enough
休憩直至痊愈
To leave again and play
便能再度启程歌唱
You are making human contact
此刻你正与人间相触
With the postcards that you send
你寄来的那些明信片
To the children of your ex wifes
寄给你前妻的孩子们
And a woman your girlfriend
还有你的女友
Who is living in a city
她住在遥远的城市
Thousands of miles away
相隔千山万水
That is full of young male models
那里满是年轻男模
Not all of whom are gay
并非全都喜欢男人
In the meanwhile you've stopped writing songs
如今你已搁笔不再写歌
There's nothing left to say
心中已无话可说
You'd like to get your old job back
你渴望重拾旧日工作
And mow lawns again one day
某天再修剪草坪度日
But you keep lifting up your left leg
可你仍不自觉地抬起左腿
Sticking out your tongue
伸出舌头扮鬼脸
There's nothing else that you can do
除此之外别无选择
And you're too old to die young
而你也已老去 不再年轻
Too many beds too many towns
辗转太多床榻 漂泊太多城镇
Not much to declare zones
行囊空空如也 无甚可申报
London broils and tuna melts on dirty microphones
伦敦的喧嚣与金枪鱼三明治 伴着脏兮兮的话筒
While the sound man's falling fast asleep
调音师已沉沉睡去
The light man's been up for days
灯光师数日未眠
The club owner and arithmetic
俱乐部老板与账本数字
Have long since parted ways
早已分道扬镳
As for the lovely audience
至于那些可爱的观众们
Tonight they're rather cold
今夜他们的目光如此冰冷
But they're prepared to listen
却仍愿意倾听
All they have to be is told
只需有人开口诉说
If the day off doesn't get you
若闲适的日子无法打动你
Then the bad reviewer does
那个刻薄的乐评人又来刁难
At least you've been a has been
至少你曾辉煌过
And not just a never was
而非从未被认可
