Egg and Soldiers

I was looking over at my shoulder
我看着我的肩膀
Only thinking of the short term
只想再等一会
But time was looking back at me
但时间回望着我
Every day I eat an egg and soldier
每天吃掉一个鸡蛋和士兵
Then I sit a little longer
随后多坐一小会
On a blanket made for three
在三人座的毯子上
Swap cow for bean
用奶牛去交换豆子
And grow a stalk
并生根发芽
To tangle with the clouds
与云朵缠绕一起
Plant poems in the barren ground
在贫瘠的土地种出诗般美丽的事物
Blow doldrums 'round and 'round
一次又一次打破消沉
Cut the brambles down
斩开荆棘阻难
Search for heaven underground
寻找着隐藏的极乐之地
It was lost but now it's found
它曾遗失 但现在我找到它了
For we drank the ocean
因为我们沉浸于海洋之中
We’ll play while Venice drowns
浸没在威尼斯快乐时光中
Submarines won’t save us now
现在开动潜艇不会拯救我们了
We climbed a hill but then fell down
我爬上了一座山 但是却摔了下去
We climbed a hill but then fell down
我爬上了一座山 但是却摔了下去
We climbed a hill but then fell down
我爬上了一座山 但是却摔了下去
I was looking over at my shoulder

All hail Tom Thumb

What's done is done
已成定局 覆水难收
You'll never find the answer
你永远也找不到答案
Till it's gone
直到它消散为止
