[00:00:20] Willy robbins was a hard working fellow

[00:00:28] Willy robbins曾是一个勤勤恳恳的家伙

[00:00:28] And each morning he'd kiss his wife twice and tell her

[00:00:36] 每个清晨，他都会再三亲吻他的妻子，并对她说

[00:00:36] Oh sweetie i know we're just starting out

[00:00:46] 喔，宝贝，我知道，我们才刚刚开始

[00:00:46] But down at work that tower's still being built

[00:00:54] 但是，塔楼还在修建当中

[00:00:54] And mr taylor i think he told me

[00:01:02] 我记得，Taylor告诉过我

[00:01:02] Not until that tower's built would he pay me

[00:01:11] 塔楼修建完毕后，他就会付我钱

[00:01:11] So willy picked up his hard hat gloves and pail

[00:01:20] 于是，Willy拿上他的安全帽，手套还有水桶

[00:01:20] And he combed back his graying hairs

[00:01:28] 梳理好头发

[00:01:28] By noon each room would be tidied and clean

[00:01:35] 中午时分，每个房间都干干净净，井然有序

[00:01:35] By nine willy would be back in time to eat

[00:01:43] 九点，Willy就会准时回来吃饭

[00:01:43] Then like many working men he'd shower watch tv

[00:01:52] 像其他工人一样，他也会洗澡，然后看电视

[00:01:52] And beside his dear wife he'd fall fast asleep

[00:02:05] 躺在亲爱的妻子身旁，他很快进入了梦乡

[00:02:05] Yet two weeks passed by an the check never came

[00:02:12] 两周过去了，他还是没有收到支票

[00:02:12] Mr taylor holds his initial claim

[00:02:21] Taylor拿出最早那份声明

[00:02:21] The building undone no money to be seen

[00:02:28] 上面写着，没有完工，就没有工资

[00:02:28] Oh willy and his wife with little to eat

[00:02:36] 喔，Willy和他的妻子就快食不果腹了

[00:02:36] The pay week gone yet it was she who grew tired

[00:02:44] 工资迟迟没有拿到，她觉得厌倦了

[00:02:44] The man she married she no longer admired

[00:02:53] 她不再钦佩跟她结婚的这个男人

[00:02:53] The house dirty the heat pipes cough

[00:02:59] 房子变得肮脏不堪，供热管发出嘎嘎的声响

[00:02:59] The jam jars nearly empty the apples soft

[00:03:07] 果酱也快没有了，苹果也腐烂了

[00:03:07] The bedroom dusty the bedsheets unmade

[00:03:14] 卧房布满灰尘，床单也并没整理

[00:03:14] While willy sleeps margaret lies awake

[00:03:21] Willy睡着了，但Margaret还醒着

[00:03:21] Was it her time to leave she did contemplate

[00:03:34] 该离开这个家了吗，她陷入了沉思

[00:03:34] Each night at the bus depot willy waits alone

[00:03:42] 每晚，Willy都孤零零地在站台等车

[00:03:42] For the number 35 to take him home

[00:03:51] 等着坐35路公交车回家

[00:03:51] His arms weary his tongue bound

[00:03:58] 他的手臂酸痛不已，也无心说话了

[00:03:58] Like sisyphus he feels unearthing a rock from the ground

[00:04:06] 他就像西西弗斯一样，从地上挖掘一块岩石

[00:04:06] Just to push it up a mountain to watch it roll back down

[00:04:14] 推上山顶，再看着它滚下

[00:04:14] Oh willy robbins was the hardest working fellow in town

[00:04:19] 喔，Willy是小镇中最勤恳的家伙
