牡蛎和珍珠（吉米·巴非特）
Oysters and Pearls (Jimmy Buffett)

林德伯格1927年离开了长岛
表达了他对重力的不懈并爬进了天堂
当那天晚上他回到了地球，一切都变了
对于飞行员和星球来学，一切都被重置了
Lindbergh left Long Island in 1927
Thumbed his nose at gravity and climbed into the heavens
When he returned to earth that night everything had changed
For the pilot and the planet, everything was rearranged

我们是一群很混乱的
疯狂人类
它写在我们的火箭飞船上
和在早期的洞穴壁画中
We're a pretty mixed up bunch
Of crazy human beings
It's written on our rocket ships
And in early cave wall scenes

它是如何发生的
我们怎么知道
谁坐着好好观察
谁导演这场秀
How does it happen
How do we know
Who sits and watches
Who does the show?

有些人喜欢当主角
还有些人不愿跳舞
有些人保守地活着
有些人赌一把
Some people love to lead
And some refuse to dance
Some play it safely
Others take a chance

这仍然全都是个谜
这个我们称之为世界的地方
这个大部分人像牡蛎一样
但有些人蜕变成珍珠的地方
Still it's all a mystery
This place we call the world
Where most live as oysters
While some become pearls

猫王是唯一一个来自密西西比州东北部的人
谁能摇动臀部，还仍然受到乡巴佬、警察和嬉皮士的喜爱
告诉我们自己是谁的不仅仅是基因
是方法，也是魔法，我们是属于星星的
Elvis was the only man from Northeast Mississippi
Who could shake his hips and still be loved by rednecks, cops, and hippies
It's something more than DNA that tells us who we are
It's method and it's magic, we are of the stars

有些永远不会消失
有些会相撞和燃烧
有些人让世界运转
有些人袖手旁观
Some never fade away
Some crash and burn
Some make the world go round
Others watch it turn

这仍然全都是个谜
这个我们称之为世界的地方
这个大部分人像牡蛎一样
但有些人蜕变成珍珠的地方
Still it's all a mystery
This place we call the world
Most are fine as oysters
While some become pearls
