[00:07.200] One moonlight night
[00:23.754] One moonlight night in the bayou a silhouette
[00:28.778] The air was sweet and the fog was vi-o-let
[00:33.797] The gators were all drinking tea, in a dreamy pantsless glee
[00:38.561] I saw a suspendered man, a banjo holstered in his hands.
[00:43.331] He had biggest red suspenders I ever did see, golly gee that's what I've seen
[00:48.618] He flicked the brim of his hat, and this is what he said to me.
[00:53.635] "Mister robut ah am The Suspender Man
[00:58.412] And dis banjo 'as shown me dah promised land.
[01:03.177] Now ah play a song but in return, yoo put dat shiny coin right 'ere in mah urn.
[01:08.198] And ah play yoo sumfin fine. Mah music gonna blow yo mind!"
[01:13.211] So I flicked my coin into his pot, I gotta admit it twasn't a lot
[01:17.974] Two cents and then his fingers wriggled,
[01:20.483] he plucked those strings and belched a giggle.
[01:23.243] He tapped his foot, howled like a hound
[01:25.498] Igniting up the unholy sound.
[01:32.540] And I ain't never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never,
[01:35.542] never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never,
[01:37.800] never, never, never, never, never, heard anything so great.
[01:42.825] Call the vendors.
[01:45.368] Big Suspenders.
[01:47.619] That's what everybody wants to wear.
[01:52.393] They stretch to Nantucket.
[01:55.193] Put them in a bucket
[01:57.445] And send them to the gnome trapped down the well
[02:00.456] (Tug 'em with thumbs is ideal)
[02:02.712] (While rollin' back on your heels)
[02:04.958] (Yeah)
[02:06.471] He played the two cent show
[02:11.038] And just like that he stopped playing
[02:13.799] My jaw dropped to the floor.
[02:16.054] He cracked his neck and smiled at me,
[02:18.059] And said,
[02:18.570] "Buddy, y'gotta pay for more!"
[02:21.078] But by then a crowd had swarmed the swamp,
[02:23.333] tossin' coin in after coin.
[02:25.841] So he cleared his throat, and his fingers writhed,
[02:28.358] and everyone shouted for Suspender Guy.
[02:34.370] Call the vendors
[02:36.900] Big Suspenders
[02:39.410] That's what grandma wants for her birthday
[02:44.233] They're bright red and awesome
[02:46.742] Even worn by opossums
[02:49.029] Nobody wants their pants to fall down
[02:52.533] (Ma and Pappy want 'em too)
[02:54.542] (Even the ghost of your Uncle Stu)
[02:56.548] (Yeah)
[02:58.299] He played the two cent show
[03:03.321] Fracture that banjo!
[03:44.211] All the children sing and dance
[03:46.968] Those banjo sounds instill a trance
[03:49.479] By 4 AM the press what hot
[03:51.985] Suspender Man on the front page spot
[03:54.501] Suspenders were in and spats were out
[03:57.003] The girls all suffered from fainting bouts
[03:59.540] The banjos flew off the shelves
[04:01.798] Sprouting wings with dreams
[04:03.064] of being played by Suspender Man.
[04:09.294] But in the middle of February
[04:11.555] the fog turned a crimson red
[04:14.054] The Suspender Man disappeared,
[04:16.315] everyone was heels over head
[04:19.070] But we found his suspenders and that old banjo
[04:21.340] sittin' right there on his log
[04:24.103] And though he's gone,
[04:25.107] that's what he gets
[04:26.361] for selling his soul to the bog
[04:34.071] Big Suspenders
[04:36.327] Put them in a blender
[04:38.582] Three bat teeth and a blackened demon eye
[04:43.595] Bring it to a boil
[04:46.112] Release your mortal coil
[04:48.369] Out pops a belt to wear for you and me-
[04:53.396] Nobody wants their pants to fall down-
[04:58.429] You could wear a dress and then...you'd have no need
[05:02.686] (The alligators had it right)
[05:04.692] (Wearing pants it sure does bite)
[05:06.952] (Yeah)
[05:08.697] He played the two cent show
歌词翻译
[00:07.200] 月光皎洁的夜晚
[00:23.754] 沼泽地月光下浮现剪影
[00:28.778] 空气香甜 雾气紫如罗兰
[00:33.797] 短吻鳄们品茶嬉戏 忘形得忘了穿裤衩
[00:38.561] 我看见吊带裤男人 手中握着斑鸠琴
[00:43.331] 那鲜红背带宽得惊人 老天爷我真没骗您
[00:48.618] 他轻弹帽檐对我说出这般话语
[00:53.635] "机器人先生 俺是吊带裤侠
[00:58.412] 这把琴带俺见过应许之地
[01:03.177] 现在俺弹个曲儿 您往这罐里投钢镚儿
[01:08.198] 保管让您听得灵魂出窍爽翻天"
[01:13.211] 我扔进两分钱确实寒酸
[01:17.974] 他手指翻飞突然打个嗝
[01:20.483] 琴弦震颤发出恶魔笑
[01:23.243] 跺脚嚎叫如野狼
[01:25.498] 奏响不祥之音
[01:32.540] 我这辈子从没从没从没从没从没
[01:35.542] 从没从没从没从没从没从没从没
[01:37.800] 从没听过这么带劲的曲
[01:42.825] 快叫小贩
[01:45.368] 大号背带
[01:47.619] 人人都想搞一条
[01:52.393] 能拉到楠塔基特
[01:55.193] 塞进木桶当邮包
[01:57.445] 送给井下被困的地精佬
[02:00.456] (大拇指勾着最趁手)
[02:02.712] (后仰发力要顺势)
[02:04.958] (嘿)
[02:06.471] 他奏响两分钱秀
[02:11.038] 琴声戛然而止
[02:13.799] 我下巴惊到地上
[02:16.054] 他扭脖咧嘴笑:
[02:18.059] "哥们
[02:18.570] 想听续集得加钱!"
[02:21.078] 此刻人群已淹沼泽
[02:23.333] 硬币如雨落罐中
[02:25.841] 他清嗓扭指节
[02:28.358] 万众欢呼吊带侠
[02:34.370] 快叫小贩
[02:36.900] 大号背带
[02:39.410] 奶奶生日就想要这个
[02:44.233] 鲜红帅气拉风
[02:46.742] 负鼠都抢着穿
[02:49.029] 谁都不想掉裤衩
[02:52.533] (爹妈也想要同款)
[02:54.542] (连叔公鬼魂都眼馋)
[02:56.548] (嘿)
[02:58.299] 他奏响两分钱秀
[03:03.321] 砸碎那斑鸠琴!
[03:44.211] 孩童歌舞入魔怔
[03:46.968] 琴音催人神魂颠
[03:49.479] 凌晨四点上头条
[03:51.985] 吊带侠占满报刊
[03:54.501] 背带盛行鞋罩过时
[03:57.003] 姑娘们晕倒一大片
[03:59.540] 斑鸠琴卖到脱销
[04:01.798] 长出翅膀梦想着
[04:03.064] 被吊带侠弹奏的荣光
[04:09.294] 但二月过半时
[04:11.555] 雾气突染猩红色
[04:14.054] 吊带侠消失无踪
[04:16.315] 众人急得倒栽葱
[04:19.070] 只见他的背带和旧琴
[04:21.340] 静静躺在树桩上
[04:24.103] 虽然人已逝
[04:25.107] 也是活该
[04:26.361] 谁让他把灵魂卖给沼泽王
[04:34.071] 大号背带
[04:36.327] 扔进搅拌机
[04:38.582] 加三颗蝙蝠牙和恶魔黑眼珠
[04:43.595] 煮到咕嘟冒泡
[04:46.112] 灵魂挣脱躯壳
[04:48.369] 变出皮带供你我使用
[04:53.396] 谁都不想掉裤衩
[04:58.429] 改穿裙子的话...就省了这麻烦
[05:02.686] (鳄鱼们才最明白)
[05:04.692] (穿裤子纯属受罪)
[05:06.952] (嘿)
[05:08.697] 他奏响两分钱秀
