Alcohol 歌词
Here's a story about a sinner,
这是个关于罪人的故事
He used to be a winner who enjoyed a life of prominence and position,

But the pressures at the office and his socialite engagements,
但工作的压力和无趣的社交的困难
And his selfish wife's fanatical ambition,
以及他自私妻子的金钱欲望
It turned him to the booze,
让他开始酗酒
And he got mixed up with a floosie
整日跟一个妓女混在一起
And she led him to a life of indecision.
甚至丢掉了工作
The floosie made him spend his dole
他把救济金都花在了这妓女身上
She left him lying on Skid Row
以至于只能在贫民区过夜
A drunken lag in some Salvation Army Mission.
成了个混迹于救济站的醉汉
It's such a shame.
这真是耻辱
Oh demon alcohol,
噢,该死的酒精啊
Sad memories I cannot recall,
悲伤的记忆我都不记得
Who thought I would say,
谁想到我会说
Damn it all and blow it all,
这该死的一切都滚开吧
Oh demon alcohol,

Memories I cannot recall,

Who thought I would fall a slave to demon alcohol.

Sad memories I cannot recall,

As long as all his troubles disappeared.

But he messed up his life, went and beat up his wife,

And the floosie's gone and found another sucker
那妓女也另寻新欢
She's gonna turn him on to drink

She's gonna lead him to the brink
这让他濒临毁灭
And when his money's gone,
当他身无分文了
She'll leave him in the gutter,
