Pink Houses - John Mellencamp
Theres a black man with a black cat
有个黑人养了只黑猫
Living in a black neighbourhood
住在一个漆黑的社区里
He's got an interstate runnin through his front yard
在他的前院有一条州际公路穿过
You know he think that he's got it so good
你知道的 他以为自己已拥有了美好的一切
And there's a woman in the kitchen
厨房里有个女人
Cleanin up the evening slop
晚餐过后 她在洗碗
And he looks at her and says: hey darling
他看着她说 亲爱的
I can remember when you could stop a clock
我还记得你土里土气的样子
Oh but ain't that america for you and me
但那就是你我生存着的美国
Ain't that america were someting to see baby
美国有什么好 宝贝
Ain't that america home of the free
不是只有美国才有自由
Little pink houses for you and me
你和我拥有粉红色的小屋就足矣
Well there's a young man in a t-shirt
有个穿着短袖的年轻男人
Listening to a rockin rollin station
听着摇滚电台
He's got a greasy hair greasy smile
他头发油腻 笑容虚伪
He says: lord this must be my destination
他说 主啊 这一定是我的宿命
Cuz they told me when I was younger
因为他们在我年轻的时候告诉我
Boy you're gonna be president
男孩 你会成为总统的
But just like everyting else
正如其他的一切一样
Those old crazy dreams
那些过往的疯狂梦想
Just kinda came and went
只享受了暂时的风光
Oh but ain't that america for you and me

Go to work in some high rise
去那些高楼大厦上班
And vacation down at the gulf of mexico
在墨西哥海湾度假
Ohhh yeah
And there's winners and theres losers
世界上有赢家 也有输家
But they ain't no big deal
但也没什么大不了
Cuz the simple man baby pays for the thrills
因为那个头脑简单的人要为自己的狂妄
The bills and the pills that kill
付出代价 他欠了债 郁闷得要自杀
Oh but ain't that america for you and me
