I found a black beret on the street today 今天我发现了一个黑色的贝雷帽在街上

It was lying in the gutter all torn 它躺在阴沟里所有的撕裂

There's a white flag flying on a tall building 有一个白色的旗帜飘扬在高层建筑

But the kids just watch the storm 但孩子只是看风暴

   

Their dirty faces pressed on the windows 他们的脸上脏窗户上的压

Shattered glass before their eyes 在他们眼前破碎的玻璃

There's a mad dog barking in a burned out subway 有一个疯狂的狗叫声在被烧毁的地铁

Where the sniper sleeps at night 当狙击手睡觉，晚上

   

No birthday songs to sing again 没有生日歌再唱

Just bricks and stones to give them 只是砖块和石头给他们

Wrap them up in your father's flags 总结起来在你父亲的旗帜

And let them cry to heaven 并让他们哭到天堂

   

There are many graves by a cold lake 有许多坟墓被冷湖

As the beds were when your babies are born 至于床，当你的宝宝在出生

And your rag doll sits with a permanent grin 和你的布娃娃坐在一个永久的微笑

But the kids just watch the storm 但孩子只是看风暴

   

I saw a black cat tease a white mouse 我看到了一个黑色的猫逗白老鼠

Until he killed it with his claws 直到他用他的爪子把它打死了

Seems a lot of countries do the same thing 看来很多国家做同样的事情

Before they go to war 才去打仗
