Man In Black (Single Version)

Well,you wonder why I always dress in black,
你總奇怪我為何身著黑衣
Why you never see bright colors on my back,
我為何身上不見世間美妙色彩
And why does my appearance
我的神情為何
seem to have a somber tone.
子夜般陰沉
Well,there's a reason for
好吧我總是這樣
the things that I have on.
是有理由的
I wear the black for the poor
我為窮苦之人著黑衣
and the beaten down,
我為落魄之人著黑衣
Livin'in the hopeless,hungry side of town,
他們生活在無助與飢餓之中
I wear it for the prisoner

who has long paid for his crime,
他們為罪行久負桎梏
But is there
但他們中多少
because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,
我為無知之人著黑衣
Or listened to the words that Jesus said,
我為愚昧之人著黑衣
About the road to happiness
他們不知幸福之路
through love and charity,
存在於愛與良善
Why,you'd think
為什麼我這樣說你會想
He's talking straight to you and me.
“為什麼他(Johnny)這樣對你我說
Well,we're doin'mighty fine,
我想我們
I do suppose,
過得不賴
In our streak of lightnin'cars
在我們飛馳的閃亮車燈照耀中
and fancy clothes,
在我們取寵的錦衣華服掩蓋下”
But just so we're reminded of
但正因如此我們明白
the ones who are held back,
世人歌舞昇平自欺欺人
Up front there ought 'a be a
總該有人站在黑暗與破曉之間
Man In Black.
身著黑衣
I wear it for the sick and lonely old,

a hundred fine young men.
成百上千的年輕生命
And,I wear it for the thousands

他們將救世主與拯救信以為真
I wear it for another

hundred thousand who have died,
身著黑衣
Believen'that we all were on their side.
他們以為我們不會拋棄他們
Well,there's things that never will be right I know,
是的我明白月有陰晴圓缺
And things need changin'everywhere you go,
此事古難全
But 'til we start to make a move
但除非我們都做出微小努力
to make a few things right,
讓滴水穿石

你永不會看見我重著白衣
Ah,I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,
啊我也想每天身披彩虹
And tell the world that everything's OK,

But I'll try to carry off
但我必須
a little darkness on my back,
身披一些黑暗的重擔
'Till things are brighter,
所以直到我們在光明中再會
I'm the Man In Black.
我將身著黑衣
