Effervescing elephant 泡泡象
Syd Barrett
An effervescing elephant with tiny eyes, and great big trunk
once whispered to the tiny ear the ear of one inferior that by next june he'd die, oh yeah!
长着小眼睛和大长鼻子的泡泡象
有天对着小耳朵说悄悄话
小个子长的小耳朵
告诉他他明年六月就要死啦 欧耶~
because the tiger would roam and the little one said oh my goodness I must stay at home
and everytime I hear a growl I'll know the tiger's on the prowl butI'll be really safe you know
The elephant he told me so And everyone was nervvy, oh yeah!
因为老虎要过来啦 小个子说哦我的天呐
我得呆在家里 这样每次我听到“嗷~”我就知道老虎到
我肯定不会有事的,因为你懂的泡泡象已经给我报信啦 大家都紧张成了神经病欧耶~
and the message was spread to zebra, mongoose, and the dirty hippopotamus who wallowed in the mud and chewed his spicy hippoplanckton food and tended to ignore the word prefering to survey a herd of stupid water bison, oh yeah!
消息传到了斑马、丁满和脏脏的河马那儿
河马嚼着它辣辣的水藻在泥坑里打滚滚 瞅着一群傻水牛
最后还是决定什么都不告诉它们 欧耶~
and all the jungle took fright and ran around for all the day and the night but all in vain
because you see the tiger came and said "Who me?
You know I wouldn't hurt not one of you
I much prefer something to chew and you're all too scant, oh yeah!"
丛林里大家都好怕怕不分昼夜满地瞎跑 但都是没用哒
你看啊老虎过来了它说:“谁?我吗?
你懂的我不会伤害你们任何一个
我不过想找点东西嚼 你们还不够我塞牙缝哒 欧耶”
He ate the elephant...
它吃了泡泡象…
