Walking home from work through the orange glow of a Friday night
在周五晚上下班回家 橙光将我笼罩
No time at all to catch, chewing on a licorice pie
不用着急忙慌 慢慢咀嚼甘草派
I just finished a couple of mixes
我刚做好了几段混音
Had a chat with my old man
和老爹聊了天
Tried to sample that wonderful sound that comes when you crush
试着把那美好的声音采样
A beer can
敲碎啤酒罐的声音
From afar I heard a song I knew from back in the day
我远远地听到一首旧时相识的歌
Dave Grohl's voice came from the stadium just a few blocks away
Dave Grohl的声音从几个街区外的体育场传来
Then it went silent, I heard him announce he had broken his leg
然后是一片寂静 我听到他说他摔断了腿
Someone should have told him not take that phrase "Break a leg"
应该有人告诫他 那句“祝好运”的俗语
Quiet so literally
并不该按字面意思理解
But he kept going diligently, I'll give him that
但他勤奋地继续着 我很钦佩他
And the city was full of giddy, forty-year-old rocker dads
这城市里满是轻狂的40岁摇滚大叔
Pissing in corners and singing "My Hero"
冲着墙角撒尿 唱着《我的英雄》
I almost stepped on a guy who was passed out in a sombrero
我差点踩在一个戴着宽边帽晕倒的人身上
Couple blocks north, the crowd cleared out
再往北走几个街区 人群散去
In an intersection someone looked up and gave me a shout
在一个路口 有人抬眼看我 冲我大叫
A pizza delivery guy had crashed his bike
一个披萨外卖员撞倒了自己的自行车
I helped him up and as a thank you he gave me a slice
我扶他起来 他送了我一块披萨作为感谢
I decided to take an alternate route due to construction
由于施工 我打算改路走
In the clear, dark sky I saw Jupiter's position
在清澈的夜空里 我看到了木星
There was a blackout for several blocks
之后的几个街区没给我留下印象
I put a letter in a post box addressed to myself in some future rendition
我往信箱里投了一封信 寄给未来唱着歌的自己
I made a beeline over the cemetery
我径直奔向墓地
And read all the names
浏览了每一个名字
A golden fox dropped a rose on somebody's grave
一只金狐狸把一朵玫瑰落在了某人的墓前
Not such a strange vision, tonight is magical realism
这不是什么奇观 这是魔幻现实之夜
So we'll mention the mystic like we mention the mundane
我们聊着的神秘事件不过是寻常
There's something 'bout these early summer nights
这些傍晚令人回味
Walking home through the city makes me feel like I'm in a movie
走过整个城市回家 我仿佛置身电影中
All the happy people, all the bright lights
所有欢乐的人儿 所有命令的光
The first stadium show of the year
今年第一场体育馆表演
The smell of hot dogs and spilled beer
热狗和遍洒的啤酒的味道
The church bell strikes midnight
教堂钟声在午夜响起
But the magic doesn't disappear
但魔法尚未消失
