Sleep The Clock Around
Mates of State
Sleep The Clock Around 歌词
And the moment will come when composure returns
此刻归于平静
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
当你面对世界,倚靠围墙
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
你的思绪游离于天际中二十码远
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
在自由之山,时尚之桥
用好奇的目光打量着走在泥泞小道上的她
Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
你一生之中首遇无话可说
And for once in your life you've got nothing to say
只因此时遇到她
And could this be the time when somebody will come?
自嘲自己一无是处
To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"
偷得浮生半日闲
阅读着梦中女孩的来信
Take a walk in the park, take a Valium pill
还有比这更有意义的一天
Read the letter you got from the memory girl
竟比牛奶还要美味
But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
你深信无疑,深信无疑
Yeah,it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
你将旗开得胜
竟是美国的灾难之旗
And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
你会去尝试,男孩,我知道你也会付诸行动
And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
清晨你忆起在她的沙龙之上
Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
有自己想要的一本书
After all that you've done, boy, I know you're going to pay
但是那地却远离人群
他人的帮助显得遥不可及
In the morning you come to the ladies' salon
这个难题将会一直困扰你 有人会说
To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne
趁头脑清醒,解决这些困扰
But the people are living far away from the place
如果放下笔,将烦恼抛之于脑后
Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
此刻将会到来,你将因此闪耀
此刻烦恼以无,人有所得
And the puzzle will last 'till somebody will say
人们因这一刻的到来而感到高心
"There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
而你也将找到属于自己的乐园
If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
发觉美梦初醒
Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
美梦初醒
Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
You can look at yourself sleep the clock around
You sleep the clock around
