The old diamondback sturgeon came swimmin' along 老菱鲟来到泳装“沿

Minding his business one day 照看他的生意1天

Rooting and sniffing and urging to spawn 生根和嗅探，并敦促产卵

In the mud flats of San Pablo Bay 在圣巴勃罗湾泥滩

   

A scent came around so he followed his snout 香气芬芳来到身边让他跟着他的吻

He found what was to his surprise 他发现是什么让他吃惊

A golden morsel, a tidbit, a tight bunch of grass shrimp 金色一口一个珍闻，紧一堆草虾

Was there right before this buck's eyes 有没有在这之前降压的眼前

   

He circle round twice and he took a big whiff 他圆轮两次，他采取了一个大的味儿

Then sucked up this savory meal 然后吸了这种美味的餐

Then came a jolt and to the diamondback's surprise 接着传来一阵颠簸和对小菜蛾的惊喜

Through his lips cut the cold, barbed steel 通过他的嘴唇切寒，刺钢

   

In a panic the old diamondback sped to the north 在一个恐慌的老菱赶赴北

He sped to the east, west and south 他呼啸而至的东，西，南

But the harder he swam, he still could not break free 但更难他游，他仍然无法挣脱

From the "tugging" that pulled at his mouth 从“揪着” ，在他的嘴角扯出
