[00:00.00]	作词 : Dylan
[00:04.210]	Oh, the benches were stained with tears and perspiration,
[00:09.980]	The birdies were flying from tree to tree.
[00:15.560]	There was little to say, there was no conversation
[00:20.850]	As i stepped to the stage to pick up my degree.
[00:26.180]	And the locusts sang off in the distance,
[00:31.260]	Yeah, the locusts sang such a sweet melody.
[00:36.910]	Oh, the locusts sang off in the distance,
[00:42.360]	Yeah, the locusts sang and they were singing for me.
[00:58.880]	I glanced into the chamber where the judges were talking,
[01:04.900]	Darkness was everywhere, it smelled like a tomb.
[01:09.600]	I was ready to leave, i was already walkin',
[01:14.600]	But the next time i looked there was light in the room.
[01:19.470]	And the locusts sang, yeah, it give me a chill,
[01:24.380]	Oh, the locusts sang such a sweet melody.
[01:29.930]	Oh, the locusts sang their high whining trill,
[01:34.940]	Yeah, the locusts sang and they were singing for me.
[01:51.720]	Outside of the gates the trucks were unloadin',
[01:57.310]	The weather was hot, a-nearly 90 degrees.
[02:02.150]	The man standin' next to me, his head was exploding,
[02:07.800]	Well, i was prayin' the pieces wouldn't fall on me.
[02:11.960]	Yeah, the locusts sang off in the distance,
[02:17.600]	Yeah, the locusts sang such a sweet melody.
[02:22.370]	Oh, the locusts sang off in the distance,
[02:27.920]	And the locusts sang and they were singing for me.
[02:45.350]	I put down my robe, picked up my diploma,
[02:50.130]	Took hold of my sweetheart and away we did drive,
[02:55.280]	Straight for the hills, the black hills of dakota,
[03:00.480]	Sure was glad to get out of there alive.
[03:04.970]	And the locusts sang, well, it give me a chill,
[03:09.840]	Yeah, the locusts sang such a sweet melody.
[03:15.310]	And the locusts sang with a high whinin' trill,
[03:20.610]	Yeah, the locusts sang and they was singing for me,
[03:26.480]	Singing for me, well, singing for me.

歌词翻译

[00:04.210]	哦，长凳被眼泪和汗水锈蚀
[00:09.980]	鸟儿在树间飞来飞去
[00:15.560]	无话可说也无言回应
[00:20.850]	当我上台接受学位时
[00:26.180]	而蝗虫在远处齐唱
[00:31.260]	是的，蝗虫齐唱，好美的旋律
[00:36.910]	哦，蝗虫在远处齐唱
[00:42.360]	是的，蝗虫齐唱，他们为我歌唱
[00:58.880]	我瞥了一眼评审们的会议室
[01:04.900]	黑黢黢的，一股坟墓味道
[01:09.600]	我已准备离开，我刚刚迈步
[01:14.600]	但当我再看，屋里有亮光
[01:19.470]	蝗虫齐唱，让我打一冷颤
[01:24.380]	哦，蝗虫齐唱，好美的旋律
[01:29.930]	哦，蝗虫齐唱，婉转的高音
[01:34.940]	是的，蝗虫齐唱，在为我歌唱
[01:51.720]	学校门外，卡车在卸货
[01:57.310]	天气炎热，差不多有华氏90度
[02:02.150]	站我旁边的人，脑袋爆了
[02:07.800]	我祈求碎片可别落我身上
[02:11.960]	是的，蝗虫在远处齐唱
[02:17.600]	哦，蝗虫齐唱，好美的旋律
[02:22.370]	哦，蝗虫在远处齐唱
[02:27.920]	是的，蝗虫齐唱，在为我歌唱
[02:45.350]	我脱下博士袍，捡起学位证
[02:50.130]	拽起我爱人，一溜烟驶离
[02:55.280]	直奔进山里，达科塔苍山
[03:00.480]	真高兴我还能活着逃出来
[03:04.970]	蝗虫齐唱，让我打一冷颤
[03:09.840]	是的，蝗虫齐唱，好美的旋律
[03:15.310]	哦，蝗虫齐唱，婉转的高音
[03:20.610]	是的，蝗虫齐唱，在为我歌唱
[03:26.480]	为我歌唱，好吧，为我歌唱
