污染（汤姆·莱勒）
Pollution (Tom Lehrer)

如果你去美国城市
你会发现它非常漂亮
有两件事你必须注意
不要喝那里的水，不要呼吸那里的空气
If you visit American city
You will find it very pretty
Just two things of which you must beware
Don't drink the water and don't breathe the air

污染，污染
那里有雾霾，污水和泥浆
打开水龙头
又冷又热又脏
Pollution, pollution
They got smog and sewage and mud
Turn on your tap
And get hot and cold running crud

看那些比目鱼和鲟鱼
被清洁剂擦干净了
鱼要游泳，鸟要飞翔
但即使尝试，也撑不了多久
See the halibuts and the sturgeons
Being wiped out by detergeons
Fish gotta swim and birds gotta fly
But they don't last long if they try

污染，污染
你可以用最新的牙膏
然后漱口
用那些工业废料
Pollution, pollution
You can use the latest toothpaste
And then rinse your mouth
With industrial waste

出去呼吸一下新鲜空气吧
这样你就可以享受医疗保险了
城市的街道真是令人心旷神怡
就算兜帽男抓不到你，那一氧化碳也能
Just go out for a breath of air
And you'll be ready for Medicare
The city streets are really quite a thrill
If the hoods don't get you, the monoxide will

污染，污染
戴上防毒面具和面纱
然后你就可以呼吸了
直到你无法呼吸了
Pollution, pollution
Wear a gas mask and a veil
Then you can breathe
Long as you don't inhale

那里有很多东西可以喝
但是离厨房水槽远点
你扔进海湾的早餐垃圾
他们在圣何塞吃午餐时喝
Lots of things there that you can drink
But stay away from the kitchen sink
The breakfast garbage that you throw into the bay
They drink at lunch in San Jose

所以去城里吧
看看那些疯狂的人
就像被宰杀的羔羊
他们在喝水
呼吸(咳嗽)空气
So go to the city
See the crazy people there
Like lambs to the slaughter
They're drinking the water
And breathing (cough) the air
