Life on the Nickel (Album Version)

Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
我再一次倉促催索
But I can't seem to catch a dime
我再一次輾轉周旋
Take a little hit and I lose the time
我再一次奮力急趕
I took the man and his horse
但我似乎連一分錢的回報都得不到
And ran before he looked up
受到了一點打擊，我的時間也所剩無幾了
I said the light's gonna change
我帶走了那個人和他的馬
But I'm calm and feeling warm
並在他尋找之前跑掉了
And now I'm sticking out my hands
我說引路的光就要變了
And feeling weightless again
但我卻很平靜，並且感覺到溫暖
You got to push, got to shove
我伸出雙手
I've got to eat before they eat me
又一次感到身體失重
Got the crown and the cup
你得要猛推，得要硬擠
I've got to write to my family
而我得在他們抹殺我之前做好防備
And say, 'I'm calm and feeling warm.'
我得到了皇冠和獎杯
I'm not quite there , but I'm close
我得要給我的家人寫信
And it's a world of a difference
告訴他們，''我很平靜，並且感覺到溫暖''
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
其實我還並沒有那種狀態但也快了
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
這之間可是天壤之別了
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
我再一次倉促催索
But I can't seem to catch a dime
我再一次輾轉周旋
Take a little hit and I lose the time
我再一次奮力急趕
I've got the worst all behind me
但我似乎連一分錢的回報都得不到
Yeah they'll never be able to find me
受到了一點打擊，我的時間也所剩無幾了
I'm the king of the city
最糟糕的東西都已經被我遠遠拋在身後了
I'm a roach and they're all primates
它們永遠不會再找上來了
This is meal time
我是這座城市的國王
Real life
我是只蟑螂，而他們都是人類
I'm not gonna fight
現在是獵食、朵頤的時間了
No, I'm gonna start a war
是我真正的生活
I've been right
我不打算戰鬥
I'vebeen wrong
我將會挑起一場戰爭
My smokes have come and gone
我也許一直是對的
I've been crazy
我也許一直都做錯了
Been fed enough to not wind up dead
那些遮掩我耳目的煙幕聚攏又消散
And I'm lonely
我一直都很瘋狂
My eyes have been closed to the world
我被填充灌滿，不至於立即消逝滅亡
'Cause the world's got nothing for me
我感到無可措手
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
因為我的眼睛一刻不停地緊緊觀察著這個世界
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
但這世間沒有任何我所期望的東西
Yet again, I'm hustling , hustling, hustling
我再一次倉促催索
But I can't seem to catch a dime
我再一次輾轉周旋
Take a little hit and I lose the time
我再一次奮力急趕
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
但我似乎連一分錢的回報都得不到
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
受到了一點打擊，我的時間也所剩無幾了
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
我再一次倉促催索
But I can't seem to catch a dime
我再一次輾轉周旋
Take a little hit and I lose the time
我再一次奮力急趕
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
但我似乎連一分錢的回報都得不到
Yet again, I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
受到了一點打擊，我的時間也所剩無幾了
Yet again, I'm hustling , hustling, hustling
我再一次倉促催索
