[00:00.50] | They say immigrants steal the hubcaps |
[00:04.04] | Of the respected gentlemen |
[00:07.89] | They say it would be wine an' roses |
[00:12.24] | If England were for Englishmen again |
[00:18.78] | I saw a dirty overcoat |
[00:21.68] | At the foot of the pillar of the road |
[00:25.63] | Propped inside was an old man |
[00:28.97] | Whom time would not erode |
[00:32.52] | When the night was snapped by sirens |
[00:35.81] | Those blue lights circled past |
[00:39.42] | The dance hall called for an' ambulance |
[00:42.98] | The bars all closed up fast |
[00:46.48] | My silence gazing at the ceiling |
[00:49.86] | While roaming the single room |
[00:53.48] | I thought the old man could help me |
[00:56.97] | If he could explain the gloom |
[01:00.56] | You really think it's all new “ |
[01:03.66] | You really think about it too “ |
[01:07.55] | The old man scoffed as he spoke to me |
[01:10.84] | I'll tell you a thing or two “ |
[01:15.10] | I missed the fourteen-eighteen war |
[01:18.16] | But not the sorrow afterwards |
[01:21.36] | With my father dead and my mother ran off |
[01:25.08] | My brothers took the pay of hoods |
[01:28.72] | The twenties turned the north was dead |
[01:32.01] | The hunger strike came marching south |
[01:35.43] | At the garden party not a word was said |
[01:39.20] | The ladies lifted cake to their mouths |
[01:42.82] | The next war began and my ship sailed |
[01:46.30] | With battle orders writ in bed |
[01:49.75] | In five long years of bullets and shells |
[01:53.25] | We left ten million dead |
[01:56.80] | The few returned to old Piccadilly |
[02:00.20] | We limped around Lester Square |
[02:03.73] | The world was busy rebuilding itself |
[02:07.23] | The architects could not care |
[02:10.89] | But how could we know when I was young |
[02:13.99] | All the changes that were to come? |
[02:17.26] | All the photos in the wallets on the battlefield |
[02:21.02] | And now the terror of the scientific sun |
[02:24.21] | There was masters an' servants an' servants an' dogs |
[02:28.03] | They taught you how to touch your cap |
[02:31.65] | But through strikes an' famine an' war an' peace |
[02:35.17] | England never closed this gap |
[02:38.69] | So leave me now the moon is up |
[02:42.07] | But remember all the tales I tell |
[02:46.40] | The memories that you have dredged up |
[02:49.90] | Are on letters forwarded from hell |
[03:21.67] | The streets were now deserted |
[03:25.16] | The gangs had trudged off home |
[03:28.80] | The lights clicked off in the bedsits |
[03:32.44] | Old England was all alone |

[00:00.50] | 他们说是那些移民 |
[00:04.04] | 让可敬的绅士们吃了亏 |
[00:07.89] | 他们说这里将满是美酒和玫瑰 |
[00:12.24] | 如果把英国还给英国人的话 |
[00:18.78] | 望远处看 一件脏兮兮的大衣 |
[00:21.68] | 在路边灯柱的下面 |
[00:25.63] | 里面裹着一位老人 |
[00:28.97] | 精神矍铄 |
[00:32.52] | 当宁静的夜晚被警报声打碎 |
[00:35.81] | 一辆辆警车从身边绕过 |
[00:39.42] | 舞厅的人们喊来了救护车 |
[00:42.98] | 酒吧急忙地赶走了客人 |
[00:46.48] | 我沉默不语 盯着天花板 |
[00:49.86] | 在房间里不停踱步 |
[00:53.48] | 我觉得老人能够帮助我 |
[00:56.97] | 疏解我的烦忧 |
[01:00.56] | 你真的觉得社会焕然一新了?” |
[01:03.66] | 你真的那样认真想过?” |
[01:07.55] | 老人说着,不禁冷笑 |
[01:10.84] | 我讲些故事给你听听” |
[01:15.10] | 我躲过了残酷的一战 |
[01:18.16] | 却难逃接踵而至的不幸 |
[01:21.36] | 父亲战死 母亲离家而去 |
[01:25.08] | 哥哥们辛苦拉扯我长大 |
[01:28.72] | 二十年代刚到 北方就发生了巨变 |
[01:32.01] | 绝食抗议和示威游行向南部扩散 |
[01:35.43] | 贵族们在园游会上却只字不提 |
[01:39.20] | 女士们继续大快朵颐美味的糕点 |
[01:42.82] | 接着二次世界大战爆发 我乘上战舰出征 |
[01:46.30] | 床头压着战斗命令和军令状 |
[01:49.75] | 战火纷飞 总算在漫长的五年中活下来 |
[01:53.25] | 身后留下千万具冰冷的尸体 |
[01:56.80] | 很少人能活着回到老皮卡迪利大街 |
[02:00.20] | 我们只好在伦敦的莱斯特广场上跛行流浪 |
[02:03.73] | 世界正忙着从战争中恢复 |
[02:07.23] | 伟大的造物主对我们也毫不在乎 |
[02:10.89] | 试想那时年少无知的我 |
[02:13.99] | 又怎么能想到将来会发生什么? |
[02:17.26] | 钱包里的亲人相片 散落在战场的灰烬上 |
[02:21.02] | 新式武器的恐怖阴云笼罩在人们头顶 |
[02:24.21] | 高贵的主人和低贱的仆人,低贱的仆人和狗 |
[02:28.03] | 他们若尤其是地教导你如何去遵守礼节 |
[02:31.65] | 然而,经过无数的罢工和饥荒、战争与和平 |
[02:35.17] | 英国从未缩小社会差距,从而变得美好起来 |
[02:38.69] | 你走吧,天已经黑了 |
[02:42.07] | 但请务必铭记我上面所说的故事 |
[02:46.40] | 这些从脑海里找出来的苦痛回忆 |
[02:49.90] | 都是自地狱转寄而来的 |
[03:21.67] | 街上空寂无人 |
[03:25.16] | 连夜晚活动的地痞流氓们也归了家 |
[03:28.80] | 狭窄的房间里,人们把灯光灭去 |
[03:32.44] | 深夜里,古老的英国孤寂难堪 |
