《Ordinary Man(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] Ordinary Man - Christy Moore

[00:00:56] //

[00:00:56] I＇m an ordinary man nothing special nothing grand

[00:01:01] 我是个普通的人 没什么特别 没什么伟大

[00:01:01] I＇ve had to work for everything I own

[00:01:05] 每样东西都得靠自己工作来赚

[00:01:05] I never asked for a lot I was happy with what I got

[00:01:10] 我从没想要很多 有了这些我已经很快乐

[00:01:10] Enough to keep my family and my home

[00:01:15] 足够让我将一家人养活

[00:01:15] Now they say that times are hard and they＇ve handed me my cards

[00:01:19] 现在他们说 时代不景气 要辞退我

[00:01:19] They say there＇s not the work to go around

[00:01:24] 他们说 这里再也没有工作可做

[00:01:24] And when the whistle blows the gates will finally close

[00:01:29] 等哨声响起 大门就要关闭

[00:01:29] Tonight they＇re going to shut this factory down

[00:01:32] 今晚他们就要关掉这间工厂

[00:01:32] Then they＇ll tear it d-o-w-n

[00:01:38] 他们要把它拆掉

[00:01:38] I never missed a day nor went on strike for better pay

[00:01:43] 我从没少上一天班 或者为了涨薪去罢工

[00:01:43] For twenty years I served them best I could

[00:01:47] 我尽我所能为他们服务了20年

[00:01:47] With a handshake and a cheque it seems so easy to forget

[00:01:53] 握个手 递张支票

[00:01:53] Loyalty through the bad times and through good

[00:01:57] 甘苦与共的忠诚就都会被忘掉

[00:01:57] The owner says he＇s sad to see that things have got so bad

[00:02:01] 老板说 他也不想要事情变得这般糟

[00:02:01] But the captains of industry won＇t let him lose

[00:02:06] 可这个行业才不会让他当傻帽

[00:02:06] He still smokes his cigar and drives a car

[00:02:11] 他还开着车 抽着一支雪茄

[00:02:11] And still he takes his family on a cruise he＇ll never lose

[00:02:21] 带着他们一家去游轮上玩耍 他才不会失去什么

[00:02:21] Well it seems to me such a cruel irony

[00:02:25] 这事对我真是讽刺又残酷

[00:02:25] He＇s richer now then he ever was before

[00:02:29] 他比过去还要富有

[00:02:29] Now my cheque is spent and I can＇t afford the rent

[00:02:34] 我的支票已经花光 房租也交不起

[00:02:34] There＇s one law for the rich one for the poor

[00:02:39] 对待富人和穷人好像有两套不同的法律

[00:02:39] Every day I＇ve tried to salvage some of my pride

[00:02:43] 每一天 我尝试将自己的尊严救赎

[00:02:43] To find some work so＇s I might pay my way

[00:02:48] 去找工作 好挣钱养家

[00:02:48] Oh but everywhere I go the answer＇s always no

[00:02:53] 但是不管去哪 答案都是否

[00:02:53] There＇s no work for anyone here today no work today no work today

[00:03:07] 今天这里没有工作 今天没有工作

[00:03:07] And so condemned I stand just an ordinary man

[00:03:11] 我站在那被呵斥 就像个普通人那样

[00:03:11] Like thousands beside me in the queue

[00:03:16] 就像旁边队里站的那上千人那样

[00:03:16] I watch my darling wife trying to make the best of life

[00:03:21] 我看着我亲爱的妻子 努力地想过好生活

[00:03:21] And God knows what the kids are going to do

[00:03:26] 天知道 这些孩子们该怎么办

[00:03:26] Now that we are faced with this human waste

[00:03:30] 现在我们面临着的是对人员的浪费

[00:03:30] A generation cast aside

[00:03:34] 一代人被抛弃了

[00:03:34] And as long as I live I never will forgive

[00:03:39] 不管我活多长 我永不会原谅

[00:03:39] You＇ve stripped me of my dignity and pride you＇ve stripped me bare

[00:03:47] 你脱去了我的尊严和荣光

[00:03:47] You＇ve stripped me bare

[00:03:52] 你把我脱得精光

[00:03:52] No work today

[00:03:57] 今天失业了

[00:03:57] No work today

[00:04:02] 今天失业了
