The finches and sparrows build nests in my chimney 该雀和麻雀在我的烟囱筑巢

With remains of the small flightless birds that you failed to protect 与你没有保护遗体的小飞的鸟

But the yolk isn't easy in fact it's a drag 但是蛋黄并不容易，其实这是一个拖累

As they're blowin' through cornfields and mountains of rags 因为他们吹响过玉米地和碎布山

All over the suburbs across the great lawns 遍布整个大草坪郊区

And they're cropdusting gardens all over this town 而且他们cropdusting花园遍布这个城市

   

But nobody cares when it gets in their hair 但无人问津时，得到他们的头发

It gets in their lungs as it floats through the air 它会在他们的肺部，因为它漂浮在空中

It gets in the food that they buy and prepare 它会在他们购买和准备食物

But nobody cares when it gets in their hair 但无人问津时，得到他们的头发

   

Across the great chasms and schisms 跨越大裂痕和分裂

And the sudden aneurysms 而突如其来的动脉瘤

Where the black ink will drip across the cuspis of your eyes 当黑色墨水将跨越你的眼睛cuspis滴

And your teeth, they're worth more than you can spare 和你的牙齿，它们的价值超过你能抽出

Oh, don't tell me that it just isn't fair 哦，不要告诉我，这恰恰是不公平的

Don't speak about the cycles of life 不要谈论生活的周期

'Cause your thoughts are so soft I can cut 'em with a spork, or a bride's knife 因为你的思想是那么柔软，我可以砍时间用叉勺，还是新娘的刀

   

And the wine made our mouths too loose 和酒让我们的嘴巴太松

Such a reckless choice of words 也就是说这种鲁莽的选择

When you told me that I'm too abstruse 当你告诉我，我太深奥

I just thought it was a kind of bird 我只是觉得这是一种鸟

I swear, I just stood there 我发誓，我只是站在那里

Not saying a word 不发一言
