Parasite
Lifting the mask from a local clown
Feeling down like him
Seeing the light in a station bar
And travelling far in sin
Sailing downstairs to the northern line
Watching the shine of the shoes
And hearing the trials of the people there
Who's to care if they lose.
And take a look you may see me on the ground
For I am the parasite of this town.
Dancing a jig in a church with chimes
A sign of the times today
And hearing no bell from a steeple tall
People all in dismay
Falling so far on a silver spoon
Making the moon for fun
And changing a rope for a size too small
People all get hung.
Take a look and see me coming through
For I am the parasite who travels two by two.
When lifting the mask from a local clown
And feeling down like him
And I'm seeing the light in a station bar
And travelling far in sin
And I'm sailing downstair to the northern line
Watching the shine of the shoes
And hearing the trials of the people there
Who's to care if they lose.
And take a look you may see me on the ground
For I am the parasite of this town.
And take a look you may see me in the dirt
For i am the parasite who hangs from your skirt.
寄生虫
举起镇上小丑的假面
同他一样感受着低落
凝视站旁酒吧微弱的光线
在罪恶中游荡得太远
驶下楼来到北航道上
望着皮鞋闪闪发光
倾听那儿的人受审判
迷途之时该把谁挂念
仔细看看你就会发现我蜷在地上
因为我是这镇里的寄生虫
随着教堂钟声跳支捷格舞
那是今日时光流逝的佐证
高塔的顶端听不到铃声
所有人都陷入惊愕之中
银勺中滑落太远
取笑月亮
把绳套勒得太紧
所有人都被吊起
仔细看看你就会发现我正钻出来
因为我是一对接一对出行的寄生虫
举起镇上小丑的假面
同他一样感受着低落
凝视站旁酒吧微弱的光线
在罪恶中游荡得太远
驶下楼来到北航道上
望着皮鞋闪闪发光
倾听那儿的人受审判
迷途之时该把谁挂念
仔细看看你就会发现我蜷在地上
因为我是这镇里的寄生虫
仔细看看你就会发现我蜷在尘埃之中
因为我是你裙摆上垂下的寄生虫
