While standing at the junction on 42nd Street 而站在第42街交界处

I idly kick a pebble lying near my feet í懒懒地踢石子躺在靠近我的脚

I hear a weird noise, take a look up and down 我听到一个奇怪的噪音，看看上下

The cause of the commotion is right there on the ground 骚动的原因是在那里地面上

Imagine my surprise, thought I'd left it at home 想象一下，我惊讶的是，以为我在家里离开它

but there's no doubt about it, it's my own tombstone 但有一点毫无疑问，这是我自己的墓碑

I went into a shop, and bought a loaf of bread 我走进一家商店，买了一个面包

I sank my teeth into it, thought I'd bust my head 我却我的牙齿了进去，以为我会破灭我的头

I dashed to the dentist, said, 'I've got an awful pain!' 我摔掉牙医，说， 我有一个可怕的痛苦！ “

The man looks in my mouth and screams, 'This boy is insane!' 整个人看起来在我的嘴里和尖叫声， “这小子疯了！ ”

Imagine my surprise, thought I'd left it at home 想象一下，我惊讶的是，以为我在家里离开它

but there's a lump in my mouth of my own tombstone 但在我我自己的墓碑口有肿块

I went to see a movie, got the only empty seat 我去看了一场电影，拿到了唯一的空座位

I tried to stretch out in it, something blocking my feet 我试着伸出它的东西挡住了我的脚

Finally the lights came up, and I could clearly see 最后，灯亮了起来，我可以清楚地看到

a slab of engraved marble, just staring up at me 平板大理石刻的，只是瞪着我

Imagine my surprise, thought I'd left it at home 想象一下，我惊讶的是，以为我在家里离开它

but there's no doubt I'm sitting on my own tombstone 但毫无疑问，我坐在自己的墓碑
