They pulled the stars down one by one 他们把星星下楼来

Hauled up the moon to shine upon 拖拉月亮在闪耀

A velvet curtain rising 天鹅绒窗帘上涨

Now her puppet has cut his strings 现在她的傀儡已经切断了他的琴弦

   

The footlights glare 脚灯眩光

The trumpets blare 号角奏起

Why is your face drawn on so glum, old chum 为什么你的脸画在这么闷闷不乐，老密友

The rimshot on the punchline that you fumbled 你摸索的点睛之笔的边敲击

The crowd went home and left you 众人回家，离开你

Took the thimble and the thread 拿了顶针和线程

The air is painted Clifford Brown 空气被绘克利福德布朗

The steady gaze of your glass eye 你的玻璃眼睛的凝视稳定

Head in a basket smiling still 头一篮子微笑依旧

Free of will, free of wisdom 自由意志，自由的智慧

   

Can't feel my fingers anymore 感觉不到我的手指了

Can't raise my hand and ask for more 不能养我的手，要求更多

Dance my doll across the floor 我跳舞娃娃在地板上

Or fire a flag from a pistol 或火灾的标志，从手枪

They pulled the stars down one by one 他们把星星下楼来

Hauled up the moon to wish upon 拖拉月亮许愿

The puppet finally cut his strings 木偶终于把他的琴弦

And free at last from earthly things 并终于自由了，从地上的事

He's dancing on the ceiling 他的舞蹈在天花板上

With a showgirl in a feather dress 随着羽毛礼服歌女

We carried you on buckled limbs 我们背着你在肢体屈曲

Through mournful airs and martyrs hymns 通过凄厉的架子，烈士赞美诗

Then one blue and one more yellow pill 然后，一蓝一黄多丸

One keeps you quiet 一个让你安静

You sang "The Way You Looked Tonight" 你唱的“天水围的你看今晚”

Your voice is ringing true and clear 你的声音在响真实，明确的

Then you wore them down like candlelight 然后你穿着他们像烛光
