Ada lampu keluar acara televisi
There was an Amos and Andy on the radio
Ada seorang Amos dan Andy di radio
And a man on a hill runnin' round don't you know
Dan seorang pria di atas bukit tidak tahu
Sayin' “ev'rybody here got to go”
Sayin ‘”ev’rybody sini harus pergi”
Sayin' “ev'rybody here got to go”
Sayin ‘”ev’rybody sini harus pergi”
There were some people out in Hollywood
Ada beberapa orang di Hollywood
The words they had spoken it was well understood
Kata-kata yang mereka ucapkan itu sudah dipahami dengan baik
But three thousand miles and for ev'ryone's good
Tapi tiga ribu mil dan untuk kebaikan ev’ryone
A man stood singing his song
Seorang pria berdiri menyanyikan lagunya
Dancin' around all the tombstones he said
Dancin ‘di sekitar semua batu nisan katanya
“That a man if he's livin' would rather be dead”
“Bahwa seseorang jika dia lebih baik mati?”
And he opened the eyes to the typewriter lead
Dan dia membuka mata ke arah mesin tik
And he said, “Now it won't be too long.”
Dan dia berkata, “Sekarang tidak akan terlalu lama.”
(Repeat chorus)
(Ulangi paduan suara)
The people they gathered from miles all around
Orang-orang yang mereka kumpulkan dari mil sekitar sini
Like a Sunday in Salem they all could be found
Seperti hari Minggu di Salem mereka semua bisa ditemukan
And the lights all went out with a deafening sound
Dan lampu semua padam dengan suara yang memekakkan telinga
As the church bells rang once again
Saat lonceng gereja berdering sekali lagi
The curtains were drawn and the prophets had cried
Tirai ditarik dan para nabi menangis
When somebody screamed that the joker had lied
Saat seseorang menjerit bahwa sang joker telah berbohong
But the damage was done and the saints crucified
Tapi kerusakan itu terjadi dan orang-orang kudus disalibkan
And the truth will be lost till the end
Dan kebenaran akan hilang sampai akhir
(Repeat Chorus)
(Ulangi Chorus)
