[00:00:23]

[00:00:23] I was living on the hill

[00:00:32] 我曾住在山丘之上

[00:00:32] By the water tower and hiking trails

[00:00:41] 水塔与徒步小径旁

[00:00:41] And when the big one hit I'd have a seat

[00:00:50] 当灾难降临时 我将静坐

[00:00:50] To watch masters abandon their dogs and dogs run free

[00:00:59] 看权贵弃犬而逃 看野犬重获自由

[00:00:59] Oh baby it's time to leave

[00:01:05] 亲爱的 是时候启程了

[00:01:05] Take the van and the hearse down to New Orleans

[00:01:13] 开着灵车与厢型车 前往新奥尔良

[00:01:13] Leave under the gaze of the billboard queens

[00:01:20] 在广告女郎的凝视下离开

[00:01:20] Five foot chicks with parted lips selling sweatshop jeans

[00:01:29] 那些五尺娇娃朱唇微启 兜售血汗工厂的牛仔裤

[00:01:29] These L A phonies and their b******t bands

[00:01:39] 洛杉矶那些虚伪之徒和他们*的乐队

[00:01:39] That sound like dollar signs and Amy Grant

[00:01:48] 唱的全是金钱符号和艾米·格兰特的调调

[00:01:48] So reads the pulled quote from my last cover piece

[00:01:58] 就像我上期封面故事里引用的那句话

[00:01:58] Entitled The Oldest Man in Folk Rock Speaks

[00:02:05] 标题是《民谣摇滚圈最老男人的独白》

[00:02:05] You can hear it all over the airwaves

[00:02:13] 你能在电波里听到所有喧嚣

[00:02:13] The manufactured gasp of the final days

[00:02:20] 末日来临前精心设计的惊叹

[00:02:20] Someone should tell them bout the time that they don't have

[00:02:27] 该有人提醒他们时光所剩无几

[00:02:27] To praise the glorious future and the hopeless past

[00:02:36] 何必歌颂虚无未来与绝望往昔

[00:02:36] A few things the songwriter needs

[00:02:45] 词曲创作者所需之物

[00:02:45] Arrows of Love a mask of Tragedy

[00:02:54] 爱神之箭与悲剧面具

[00:02:54] But if you want e*****y or birth control

[00:03:03] 若你渴求永恒或避孕良方

[00:03:03] Just run the tap until the water's cold

[00:03:12] 就让水龙头流至冰凉

[00:03:12] Anything else you can get online

[00:03:19] 其余所求皆可网购

[00:03:19] A creation myth or a 45

[00:03:26] 创世神话或黑胶唱片

[00:03:26] You're going to need one or the other to survive

[00:03:32] 二者择一方能存活

[00:03:32] Where only the armed or the funny make it out alive

[00:03:42] 这世界唯有武装者与幽默者得以生还

[00:03:42] Mara taunts me 'neath the tree

[00:03:50] 玛拉在树下嘲弄着我

[00:03:50] She's like Oh great that's just what we all need

[00:03:59] 她轻叹道"噢 这可真是我们需要的"

[00:03:59] Another white guy in 2017

[00:04:09] 2017年又一个自命不凡的白人

[00:04:09] Who takes himself so goddamn seriously

[00:04:17] 把自己看得该死的认真

[00:04:17] She's not far off the strange thing is

[00:04:24] 她说的不无道理 奇怪的是

[00:04:24] That's pretty much what I thought when I started this

[00:04:31] 我刚开始时也是这么想的

[00:04:31] It took me my whole life to learn to the play the G

[00:04:39] 我花了一生才学会弹奏G调

[00:04:39] But the role of Oedipus was a total breeze

[00:04:47] 但扮演俄狄浦斯却轻而易举

[00:04:47] Still I dreamt of garnering all rave reviews

[00:04:56] 仍梦想着收获满堂喝彩

[00:04:56] Just believably a little north of God's own truth

[00:05:06] 在上帝真谛以北处 编织可信的幻象

[00:05:06] He's a national treasure now and here's the proof

[00:05:15] 他已成国宝级人物 这便是明证

[00:05:15] In the form of his major label debut

[00:05:24] 以签约大厂的首专为凭

[00:05:24] A little less human with each release

[00:05:31] 每次发片都褪去几分人性

[00:05:31] Closing the gap between the mask and me

[00:05:38] 面具与本我的界限逐渐消融

[00:05:38] I swear I'll never do this but is it okay

[00:05:45] 发誓永不妥协 但这次能否破例

[00:05:45] Don't want to be that guy but it's my birthday

[00:05:52] 不愿沦为俗人 可今天是我生辰

[00:05:52] If everything ends with the photo then I'm on my way

[00:06:02] 若一切终将定格在相片里 那我即刻启程

[00:06:02] Ohhh ho o oh oh ho ho ho oh

[00:06:36] 哦 噢 哦 噢 哦 噢 噢 哦

[00:06:36] I watched my old gods all collapse

[00:06:44] 目睹昔日信仰尽数崩塌

[00:06:44] Were way more violent than my cartoon past

[00:06:54] 远比童年动画更残酷的真实

[00:06:54] It's like my father said before he croaked

[00:07:03] 如同父亲临终前的叹息

[00:07:03] Son you're killing me and that's all folks

[00:07:12] 孩子你让我心碎 这就是结局

[00:07:12] So why is it I'm so distraught

[00:07:19] 为何我如此心神不宁

[00:07:19] That what I'm selling is getting bought

[00:07:26] 当我的真实竟成为畅销品

[00:07:26] At some point you just can't control

[00:07:33] 有些事终究无法掌控

[00:07:33] What people use your fake name for

[00:07:42] 人们如何滥用你的虚名

[00:07:42] So I never learned to play the lead guitar

[00:07:51] 所以我从未学会主奏吉他

[00:07:51] I always more preferred the speaking parts

[00:08:00] 更偏爱那些倾诉的段落

[00:08:00] Besides there's always someone willing to

[00:08:10] 何况总有人甘愿填补

[00:08:10] Fill up the spaces that I couldn't use

[00:08:18] 那些我无法驾驭的空隙

[00:08:18] Nonetheless I've been practicing my whole life

[00:08:25] 尽管如此 我仍用一生练习

[00:08:25] Washing dishes playing drums and getting by

[00:08:32] 刷着盘子敲打鼓点 勉力生存

[00:08:32] Until I figured if I'm here then I just might

[00:08:39] 直到我明白若留在此处 或许还能

[00:08:39] Conceal my lack of skill here in the spotlights

[00:08:47] 用聚光灯掩饰我技艺的贫瘠

[00:08:47] Maya the mother of illusions a beard and I

[00:08:56] 玛雅是幻象之母 我与胡须作伴

[00:08:56] 2000 years or so since Ovid taught

[00:09:05] 自奥维德教诲已过两千寒暑

[00:09:05] Night blooming teenage rosebuds dirty talk

[00:09:15] 夜绽的少女花蕾说着露骨絮语

[00:09:15] And I'm merely a minor fascination to

[00:09:25] 我对他们而言不过是

[00:09:25] Manic virginal lust and college dudes

[00:09:33] I'm beginning to begin to see the end

[00:09:40] 我正逐渐看清终局的轮廓

[00:09:40] Of how it all goes down between me and them

[00:09:47] 关于我和他们之间的一切纠葛

[00:09:47] Some 10 verse chorus less diatribe

[00:09:54] 那些没有副歌的十段式说教

[00:09:54] Plays as they all jump ship I used to like this guy

[00:10:01] This new sh*t really kinda makes me wanna die

[00:10:11] Ohhh ho oh oh oh ho ho ho oh

[00:10:28] Ohhh ho oh oh oh ho ho ho oh

[00:10:50] My first memory of music's from

[00:10:59] The time at JCPenney's with my mom

[00:11:08] The watermelon candy I was choking on

[00:11:18] Barbara screaming Someone help my son

[00:11:26] I relive it most times the radio's on

[00:11:33] That tell me lies sweet little white lies song

[00:11:40] That's when I first saw the comedy won't stop for

[00:11:47] Even little boys dying in the department store

[00:11:56] So we leave town in total silence

[00:12:06] New Year's Day it's 6 o'clock AM

[00:12:15] I've never seen Sunset this abandoned

[00:12:25] Reminds me predictably of the world's end

[00:12:33] It'll be good to get more space

[00:12:40] God knows what all these suckers paid

[00:12:47] I can stop drinking and you can write your script

[00:12:54] But what we both think now is

[00:12:59] 但此刻我们心照不宣的是
