Lazy flies all hovering above 懒惰的苍蝇都盘旋

The magistrate, he puts on his gloves 裁判官，他把他的手套

And he looks to the clouds 他看起来云

All pink and disheveled 所有的粉红色和衣冠不整

There must be some blueprints, 一定是有蓝图，

Some creed of the devil 魔鬼的一些信条

Inscribed in our minds 刻在我们的脑海中

A hideous game 有个丑恶的游戏

Vanishes in thin air 消失在稀薄的空气中

The vanity of slaves 奴隶们的虚荣心

Who wants to be there? 谁愿意在那里？

To sweep the debris 扫垃圾

To harness dead-horses 驾驭死马

To ride in the sun 骑在阳光下

A life of confessions 告白的生活

Written in the dust 写在尘土中

Out in the mangroves 在红树林

The mynah birds cry 的八哥鸟哭

In the shadows of sulfur 在硫磺的阴影

The trawlers drift by 在拖网渔船上飘过

They're chewing dried meat 他们咀嚼干肉

House of disrepute 蒙羞之家

The dust of opiates 阿片类药物的灰尘

And syphilis patients 和梅毒患者

On brochure vacations 在宣传册休假

Fear has a glare that traps you 恐惧有眩光的陷阱您

Like searchlights 像探照灯

The puritans stare 清教徒盯

Their souls are fluorescent 他们的灵魂是萤光

The skin of a robot 机器人的皮肤

Vibrates with pleasure 振动与乐趣

Matrons and gigolos 主妇和舞男

Carouse in the parlor 狂欢作乐在客厅

Their hand-grenade eyes 他们的手榴弹的眼睛

Invalid and blind 无效的和盲目

Vanishes in thin air 消失在稀薄的空气中

The vanity of slaves 奴隶们的虚荣心

Who wants to be there? 谁愿意在那里？

To sweep the debris 扫垃圾

To harness dead-horses 驾驭死马

To ride in the sun 骑在阳光下

A life of confessions 告白的生活

Written in the dust 写在尘土中
