the piano has been drinking (not me)

 

피아노는 술에 취했고
내 넥타이는 잠들었어
밴드는 뉴욕으로 떠나버렸고
쥬크박스는 볼일을 보는 중이야
카펫은 머리 손질을 좀 해야겠어
불빛은 감옥의 감시등 같아
전화기는 담배가 떨어졌나보군
발코니는 한창 작업 중이야
피아노는 술에 취했어
완전히 인사불성이 돼버렸다고
 
방사능 측정기를 들고 다니던 웨이트리스는 어디 간거야
아마도 너랑 네 친구들이 맘에 들지 않은 모양이군
그녀가 없으면 아무것도 주문할 수가 없는데
 
박스 오피스는 침을 흘리고
바의 의자는 달아 올랐어
신문은 헛소리나 지껄이고
재떨이는 은퇴해버렸지
피아노는 아직도 인사불성이야
피아노는 술에 취했어
내가 아니라, 피아노가.
글쎄, 술에 취한 건, 내가 아니라 피아노라니까.

The piano has been drinking
my neck tie is asleep
and the combo went back to New York
the juke box has to take a leak
and the carpet needs a haircut
and the spot light looks like a prision break
cause the telephone is out of cigarretes
and the balcony's on the make
and the piano has been drinking
the piano has been drinking

and the menus are all freezing
and the lightman's blind in one eye
and he cant't see out off the other
and the piano tuner's got a hearing aide
and showed up with his mother
and the piano has been drinking
the piano has been drinking

couse the bouncer is a Sumo wrestler
cream puff casper milk toast
and the owner is a mental midget
with I.Q. of a fencepost
cause the piano has been drinking
the piano has been drinking

and you can't find your waitress
with a geiger counter
and she hates you and your friends
and you just can't get served
without her

and the box office is drooling
and the bar stools are on fire
and the newspapers were fooling
and the ashtrays have retired
and the piano has been drinking
the piano has been drinking
the piano has been drinking
not me, not me, not me, not me, not me.
