The Message (LP版) - The Sugarhill Gang // It's like a jungle sometimes 有时这里就像丛林 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 我都不知道自己是怎么挺过来的 It's like a jungle sometimes 到处都是碎玻璃 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 人们在台阶上小便 你知道他们根本不在乎 Broken glass everywhere 我无法忍受这气味 无法承受这噪音 People pissing on the stairs you know they just don't care 但是我没钱搬家 我想我别无选择 I can't take the smell 耗子在客厅乱窜 蟑螂在里屋肆虐 Can't take the noise ***们拿着棒球棒在小巷里抢钱 Got no money to move out 我想逃离这一切 但是跑不远 I guess I got no choice 因为一个开着拖车的哥们夺走了我的车 Rats in the front room roaches in the back 别再逼我 我已经接近崩溃的边缘 Junkies in the alley with a baseball bat 我努力让自己不要丧失理智 I tried to get away but I couldn't get far // 'Cause a man with a tow truck repossessed my car 有时这里就像丛林 Don't push me 我都不知道自己是怎么挺过来的 'Cause I'm close to the edge 站在门口的台阶上 从窗户眺望 I'm trying not to lose my head 看到各种车经过 轰鸣着带来一阵风 It's like a jungle sometimes 疯狂的女人背着她的背包旅行 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 从垃圾桶里捡吃的 曾经和同性恋在一起 Standing on the front stoop 她说她会跳探戈 便跳起了方丹戈舞步 Hanging out the window 本来冰清玉洁的小公主好像已经失去理智 Watching all the cars go by 去播放电影的地方看那些污浊的东西 Roaring as the breezes blow 等她回到家里 就可以把这些告诉她的朋友 Crazy lady living in a bag 她到了城市里 只能靠着政府救济生活 Eating out of garbage pails 她需要一个皮条客 因为她无法自食其力 Used to be a fag hag 别再逼我 我已经接近崩溃的边缘 Said she'll dance the tango 我努力让自己不要丧失理智 Skip the light fandango // A Zircon princess seemed to lost her senses

get a pimp she couldn't make it 我的兄弟干了坏事 偷了我妈妈的电视 On her own 他说她看太多电视对身体不好 Don't push me 无论白天晚上她都在看电视节目 'Cause I'm close to the edge 根本看不了比赛 或者Sugar Ray的拳击 I'm trying not to lose my head 要账的人打了我的电话 It's like a jungle sometimes 在我不在家的时候 吓到了我的妻子 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 我在贫民窟里获得教育 还有那两位数的通胀率 It's like a jungle sometimes 我坐不了火车去上班 因为车站又罢工了 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 霓虹灯照在我的身上 My brother's doing bad 我忍不住转过身来尽情舞动 Stole my mother's T V 得了偏头疼 还有脑膜炎 Says she watches too much 有时候我感觉快要发狂 It's just not healthy 我发誓我可能要劫机了 All my children in the daytime 别再逼我

on my back 如果我找份工作 学着当个清洁工 Can't stop to turn around 或者我可以随着音乐变换舞步 Broke my sacroiliac 穿着衬衫打着领带 陪着那些怪胎玩玩 A mid range migraine 因为这都是为了钱 一点儿也不好笑 Cancered membrane 你需要坑蒙拐骗 才能在这里生存 Sometimes I think I'm going insane 他们把一个女孩推到了火车的前面 I swear I might hijack a plane 带着她找医生 把她的胳膊缝了几针 Don't push me 刺了那男人的*口 'Cause I'm close to the edge 给他做了移植手术 I'm trying not to lose my head 我无法走在公园里 因为晚上的时候太危险 It's like a jungle sometimes 我需要手里一直握着枪 因为他们在追击我 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 我就像一个不法分子 又被击倒在地 It's like a jungle sometimes 他们说 还想要更多吗 It makes me wonder how I keep from going under 我好像坐在跷跷板上
