Walk in a corner shop
走进街头一家店
See a shoplifddddd cop
发现一个抓贼的当差的
See the old lady with a gun
看见老太太端把枪
See the hero try 2 run
我们的英雄警察却要逃之泱泱
Nothing's what it seems, I mean
看起来一切都不是所想的那样,我是说
It's not all dirty, but it's not all clean
没有人是坏透的,也没有人是纯洁无暇的
There's children paying bills
看见小鬼们买单
There's monks buying thrills
教徒们寻求刺激
There's pride for sale in magazines
就算卖杂志的也有尊严
There's pills for rent 2 make u clean
Marvin Gaye, there's no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie's land can't feed Mother
CHORUS
Mothers weep, children sleep
母亲落掉泪,总算孩子睡觉了
So much violence ends in silence
如此类似多的暴力以安静结束
It's a shame there's no one 2 blame
可耻的是找不到被责备的人
For all the pain that life brings
因为是他给生活带来了如此多痛苦
If u will just take me It might just complete me
如果你爱我,就能使我变的完美
And together we can make a stand
你我在一起,我们能与生活的苦恼做斗争
A waitress brings me lunch
女服务员端来我的午饭
We meet but do not touch
我们瞪了下却都没有开吃
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
听到电视上散布着谎言的广告
While in the corner, King's dream dies
此时角落里 的King'梦想破灭
Go 2 the counter, pay for me and my friend
他去了店台,给我和朋友买单
A homeless man pulls out a roll, says it's on him
无家可归的人抽出一叠,说他来付
The mayor has no cash
看来是老大他没先金
He said he spent it on hookers and hash
还说都用去吃喝嫖赌了
CHORUS
