[00:23.99] My Grandmother always says much wants more
[00:27.17] That means no matter how much you got you just want more
[00:29.85] I got my first gold plaque I was happy for a second
[00:33.03] Then i started thinking of my next one
[00:35.16] I guess the key is press on, the car was hot as Szechuan
[00:37.80] Driving in a lemon like my name was Ayreton
[00:40.55] At Double Dragon restaurant, a city somewhere else in time
[00:43.65] I leave clues for those looking they are there to find
[00:46.30] But it’s a world where the genuine are left behind
[00:49.03] The cold blooded ones, they know how to get their shine
[00:51.70] A snake eats its tail, a baby enters as an elder leaves
[00:55.26] Sail in ships and your tears made the seven seas
[00:57.99] I spit the melodies and words that are sent to me
[01:00.68] Teeth yellowy mouth like a lemon tree
[01:03.57] Just a soul on a trip but we didn’t pack
[01:06.30] Just a soul in a body that i’m giving back
[01:09.18] I say if not now, when?
[01:11.72] Took you for granted back then
[01:14.45] My Grandma used to say
[01:17.14] Don’t put off 'til tomorrow what you could do today
[01:19.74] Been away now for a month of Sundays
[01:22.87] When I see you again it’s a party
[01:25.55] Stuff a dragon head hang it in the hallway
[01:28.31] Never forget we came a long way
[01:31.20] Living on borrowed time can I have an extension?
[01:33.49] Then god sent me back down that’s astral rejection
[01:36.15] I’ve seen drugs ruin everything that family convention
[01:38.76] I know I’m walking with an angels protection
[01:41.68] I told her I’m not a catholic but I know my angels
[01:44.67] She said I’m not beautiful but i know my angles
[01:47.43] These loves immortalised in all the songs I write
[01:50.42] Thanks for the inspiration even though it wasn’t right
[01:53.13] Over waves to Australia on a Qantas flight
[01:56.02] I was on the wave of doubt, that I often ride
[01:58.70] Far from home, since I cutback it’s another zone
[02:01.35] Ya’ll rappers need to cutback before your money's blown
[02:04.23] Call the label on the money phone ask them for another loan
[02:07.66] And they hung up the phone
[02:09.72] Did it without a cosign, but they still steal my essence
[02:12.76] My mortgage says Tom, i couldn't ring my parents
[02:15.48] I hope you’re dreams come true like there’s a genie present
[02:18.08] You won't know what wished for until you get it
[02:20.79] Fame’s a hot seat don’t let your blood boil
[02:23.51] I keep my heart in the fridge, don’t let my heart spoil
[02:26.32] I saw a flower grow up from the hard soil
[02:29.06] These rappers tell you leave your girl
[02:30.63] Because they aren’t loyal
[02:31.87] And trade her pancake ass for a bubble butt
[02:34.32] All the xans and double cups’ll they got you muddled up
[02:37.16] You’ll end up all alone, chasing another rush
[02:39.87] ***** and drugs, a double dragon that’s hard to snuff
[02:42.65] I stay with the ones who were there for me
[02:45.53] I know there’s crocs in the water like The Territory
[02:48.35] I know there’s good people around everywhere surely
[02:51.07] But sometimes it feels it just feels like Where’s Wally
[02:53.84] I couldn’t get it through my thick Irish head
[02:56.35] That i deserve happiness but last night i said
[02:58.93] I say if not now, when?
[03:01.94] Took you for granted back then
[03:04.81] My Grandma used to say
[03:07.41] Don’t put off 'til tomorrow what you could do today
[03:10.09] Been away now for a month of Sundays
[03:13.19] When I see you again it’s a party
[03:15.96] Stuff a dragon head hang it in the hallway
[03:18.72] Never forget we came a long way
歌词翻译
[00:23.99] 我祖母总是不停说 想要更多
[00:27.17] 无关于你得到了多少 始终填不满欲望
[00:29.85] 我拿到了第一个金牌匾 但只为此兴奋一秒钟
[00:33.03] 接着我开始想要下一个
[00:35.16] 我猜当我开启引擎 这车会像川辣酱一样火热
[00:37.80] 开着个破车就像我的名字叫艾瑞顿
[00:40.55] 在双龙餐厅(位于克利尔沃特)一座能及时到达任何地方的城市
[00:43.65] 我给那些寻找的人留下了线索
[00:46.30] 但在这个世界 真诚的人却被遗留在后
[00:49.03] 冷血的人 他们知道该如何让自己发光
[00:51.70] 蛇吃它的尾巴 婴儿入世 离世
[00:55.26] 扬帆航行 你的眼泪创造了七大洋
[00:57.99] 我唾弃那些送于我的旋律和文字
[01:00.68] 牙齿泛黄 像一棵柠檬树
[01:03.57] 只是灵魂来世间旅游 孑然一身
[01:06.30] 而那身体里的灵魂 终究也要归还
[01:09.18] 我说如果不是现在 什么时候?
[01:11.72] 那时候你被认为是理所当然的
[01:14.45] 我祖母常说
[01:17.14] 别把你今天该做的事情推迟到明天
[01:19.74] 已经离开了一个月的星期天
[01:22.87] 当我在聚会上再次见到你
[01:25.55] 把一个龙头挂在走廊里
[01:28.31] 永远记得 我们走过的漫长道路
[01:31.20] 靠借来的时间生活 我还能延期吗?
[01:33.49] 上帝把我送回去 那是我精神世界的排斥
[01:36.15] 我见过破坏了家庭会议的一切
[01:38.76] 我知道我走在天使的庇护下
[01:41.68] 我告诉她我不是天主教徒 但我知道我的天使
[01:44.67] 她说我不漂亮 但我知道我的天使
[01:47.43] 在我写的所有歌中 这爱永存其中
[01:50.42] 谢谢这些灵感 尽管它错了
[01:53.13] 乘坐澳洲航班 飞越浪潮前往澳大利亚
[01:56.02] 波谲云诡的浪潮中 我是骑行老手
[01:58.70] 远离家乡 因为我减少了另一个区域
[02:01.35] 你的说唱歌手们也需要缩减 在你身无分文前
[02:04.23] 打电话给钱币上的标签 向他们再借一笔贷款
[02:07.66] 他们挂断了电话
[02:09.72] 明明没有合作 却还是被偷走了精髓
[02:12.76] 我的抵押贷款说,汤姆 不能再给父母打电话了
[02:15.48] 我希望你梦想成真 就像得到精灵的礼物
[02:18.08] 在你得到它之前 你不会知道你真正想要的
[02:20.79] 名声才是热点 别让你的怒火燃烧
[02:23.51] 把我的心放进冰箱 别让它变质了
[02:26.32] 我见过一朵花从荒芜之地伸出嫩芽
[02:29.06] 这些说唱歌手让你远离你的女孩
[02:30.63] 因为她们是如此虚伪
[02:31.87] 把她的扁换成圆
[02:34.32] 所有的这些让你陷入混乱
[02:37.16] 你会孤独至死 追逐一个又一个短暂刺激
[02:39.87] 女人和 戒不掉的双头龙
[02:42.65] 我和那些支持我的人呆在一起
[02:45.53] 我知道鳄鱼是水中霸主
[02:48.35] 我知道周围到处都是好人
[02:51.07] 但有时感觉就像 沃利在哪里(英国插画家Martin Handford创作的儿童书籍)
[02:53.84] 我无法用我那厚厚的爱尔兰脑袋去知晓
[02:56.35] 我理应得到幸福,但昨晚我说
[02:58.93] 我说如果不是现在 什么时候?
[03:01.94] 那时候你被认为是理所当然的
[03:04.81] 我祖母常说
[03:07.41] 别把你今天该做的事情推迟到明天
[03:10.09] 已经离开了一个月的星期天
[03:13.19] 当我在聚会上再次见到你
[03:15.96] 把一个龙头挂在走廊里
[03:18.72] 我永远记得 我们走过的漫长道路
