Barrytown (Originally released on "Me, Myself And Irene" Soundtrack, 2000) 歌詞
Im not one to look behind I know that times must change
我不是看著過去的人,我知道時代一定改變
But over there in Barrytown they do things very strange
但是在巴里敦(在美國,西經73°55,北緯42°00)那裡,他們做著很奇怪的事情
And though youre not my enemy
儘管你不是我的敵人
I like things like they used to be
我喜歡事物原本的樣子
And though youd like some company
儘管你會想要一些陪伴
Im standing by myself
我會一個人站著
Go play with someone else
去和其他人玩兒吧
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barrytown
我可以通過你帶的東西知道你來自巴里敦
不要相信我被我曾聽到的故事欺騙
Dont believe Im taken in by stories I have heard
我剛剛讀到每日新聞並且對著每一個文字發誓
I just read the Daily News and swear by wordevery
我不認為我不合時宜/過分
因為我為我的東西大聲疾呼
And dont think that Im out of line
我希望你可以做得很好
For speaking out for what is mine
但是看看你穿著什麼
Id like to see you do just fine
以及你怎麼剪的頭髮
But look at what you wear
我可以通過你帶的東西知道你來自巴里敦
And the way you cut your hair
在剛開始時,我們回憶起這個世界是圓的
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barrytown
巴里敦的人們一定來自另一個地方
讓我走,不然我就會像你將會遇見的其他人一樣
In the beginning we recall that the world was round
如果他們在街上看見你不會表現得很善良
並且不允許你呼喊
Barrytown people got to be from another world
你無能為力
這是你出來的地方
Leave me or Ill be just like the others you will meet
這是一個很特別的缺乏慈悲
They wont act as kindly if they see you on the street
我可以在你的臉上看見它
And dont you scream or make a shout
我可以通過你帶的東西知道你來自巴里敦
Its nothing you can do about
It was there where you came out
Its a special lackof grace
I can see it in your face
I can see by what you carry that you came from Barrytown
