- Dropkick Murphys Worker’s Song 歌词
- Dropkick Murphys
- Yeh, this one's for the workers who toil night and day
这首歌献给日夜辛劳的工人
By hand and by brain to earn your pay
送给用双手和头脑创造价值的工人
Who for centuries long past for no more than your bread
工人们千年来吃的不过是面包
Have bled for your countries and counted your dead
同时为你们的国家流血又丧命
In the factories and mills, in the shipyards and mines
在工厂和磨坊里 在船坞和矿井里
We've often been told to keep up with the times
我们被要求紧紧跟上时代
For our skills are not needed, they've streamlined the job
我们的技能随时会被抛弃 被流水线替代
And with sliderule and stopwatch our pride they have robbed
算尺和秒表 夺去了我们的骄傲
We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
我们是第一批挨饿的 是第一批送死的
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
是第一批为了空头支票前往最前线的
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
但到了分蛋糕的时候 我们又总是在最后
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
因为工人在工作的时候 大腹便便的人正在闲逛！
And when the sky darkens and the prospect is war
当山雨欲来 战争将至
Who's given a gun and then pushed to the fore
是谁被塞上一支步枪、推往前线？
And expected to die for the land of our birth
还被指望着为我们生长的土地捐躯
Though we've never owned one lousy handful of earth?
哪怕这片土地没有一抔土属于我们？
We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
我们是第一批挨饿的 是第一批送死的
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
是第一批为了空头支票前往最前线的
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
但到了分蛋糕的时候 我们又总是在最后
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
因为工人在工作的时候 大腹便便的人正在闲逛！
We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
我们是第一批挨饿的 是第一批送死的
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
是第一批为了空头支票前往最前线的
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
但到了分蛋糕的时候 我们又总是在最后
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
因为工人在工作的时候 大腹便便的人正在闲逛！
We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
我们是第一批挨饿的 是第一批送死的
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
是第一批为了空头支票前往最前线的
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
但到了分蛋糕的时候 我们又总是在最后
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
因为工人在工作的时候 大腹便便的人正在闲逛！
All of these things the worker has done
从耕田到扛枪
From tilling the fields to carrying the gun
一切这些事情都是工人们完成的
We've been yoked to the plough since time first began
我们在时光诞生起就躬耕陇亩
And always expected to carry the can
也注定要永远负重前行
