I was a quick wet boy
Diving too deep for coins
All of your street light eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
And when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map
And called for you everywhere
Have I found you?
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
Or lost you?
American mouth
Big pill looming
Now I'm a fat house cat
Nursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats
Curl through the wide fence cracks
Pissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain stream
Have I found you?
Flightless bird, grounded bleeding
Or lost you?
American mouth
Big pill, stuck going down


Flightless Bird, American Mouth
折   翼   之   鸟， 在 美 国 河 口
I was a quick wet boy
我曾是一个爱哭的男孩
Diving too deep for coins
为钱币而陷入太深
All of your straight blind eyes
而你那直视前方的盲目双眼
Wide on my plastic toys
视线都落在我的塑料玩具上
And when the cops closed the fair
当警察关闭了集市
I cut my long baby hair
我剪掉了婴儿般的长发
Stole me a dog-eared map
你为我偷来一张卷角的旧地图
And called for you everywhere
而我却无处不在的寻找你
Have I found you ?
可我找到你了吗？
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping

Or lost you?
抑或已失去了你？
American mouth

Big bill looming
有巨大海岬的蜃景
Now I’m a fat house cat

Cursing my sore blunt tongue
咒骂着我那一碰就痛而味觉迟钝的舌头
Watching the warm poison rats curl through the white fence cracks
眼看着快被毒死的老鼠卷缩着穿过白色栅栏的缝隙
Kissing on magazine photos
亲吻着杂志上的照片
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
任由那些鱼饵被扔进冰冷而纯净的
Blood of Christ mountain stream

Flightless bird, brown hair bleeding
