Nobody loves you when you're down and out
Nobody sees you when you're on cloud nine
Everybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime
I'll scratch your back and you scratch mine
I've been across to the other side
I've shown you everything, I got nothing to hide
And still you ask me do I love you, what it is, what it is
All I can tell you is it's all show biz
All I can tell you is it's all show biz
Nobody loves you when you're down and out
Nobody knows you when you're on cloud nine
Everybody's hustlin' for a buck and a dime
I'll scratch your back and you knife mine
I've been across the water now so many times
I've seen the one eyed witchdoctor leading the blind
And still you ask me do I love you, what you say, what you say
Everytime I put my finger on it, it slips away
Everytime I put my finger on it, it slips away
Well I get up in the morning and I'm looking in the mirror to see, ooo wee!
Then I'm lying in the darkness and I know I can't get to sleep, ooo wee!
Nobody loves you when you're old and grey
Nobody needs you when you're upside down
Everybody's hollerin' 'bout their own birthday
Everybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground
没人会爱你
你失意落魄时没人会爱你，
你幸福迷醉时没人注意你
人们都在为金钱碌碌奔波,
所谓互助也只是互相利用。
我早已体会过那世态炎凉，
我早已一丝不挂袒露自己，
但你为何还问我是否爱你，
而我只能告诉你人生如戏，
而我只能告诉你人生如戏。
你失意落魄时没人会爱你，
你幸福迷醉时没人注意你
人们都在为金钱碌碌奔波,
所谓互助也只是互相利用。
我早已尝过那人生百味，
我早已见过愚民盲从领袖，
但你为何还问我是否爱你，
然而我每次都是欲言又止，
然而我每次都是欲言又止。
我早起对着镜子顾盼自怜，
之后蜷缩于黑暗辗转反侧，
你霜鬓体衰时没人会爱你，
你穷困潦倒时没人需要你，
人们都在为自己生日狂欢，
你长眠地下时人们才爱你。
