Ban Jin Ba Liang - 許冠傑 перевод на английский

Ban Jin Ba Liang

我地呢班打工仔
通街走直头系坏肠胃
温个些少到月底点够驶(吃个鬼)
咪话无乜所谓

最弊波士郁的发威(癫过鸡)
一咪系处系唔系就乱黎吠
哎亲加薪块面拿起恶睇(扭下计)
你就认真开胃

半斤八两 做到只积甘既样
半斤八两 湿水炮仗点会响
半斤八两 够姜就揸枪走去抢
出左半斤力 想话摞番足八两
家阵恶温食 边有半斤八两甘理想(吹涨)
我地呢班打工仔 一生一世为钱币做奴隶
个种辛苦折堕讲出吓鬼(死比你睇)
咪话无乜所谓

半斤八两 就算有福都无你享
半斤八两 仲惨过滚水渌猪掌
半斤八两 鸡碎甘多都要啄
出左半斤力 想话摞番足八两
家阵恶温食 边有半斤八两甘理想

我地呢班打工仔
通街走直头系坏肠胃
温个些少到月底点够驶(吃个鬼)
咪话无乜所谓

US working-class stiffs
Running around all day only to get indigestion
We earn so little by the end of the month, it's not enough to buy groceries (eat shit)
Don't tell me it doesn't matter

Worst of all, when the boss gets pissed off (crazier than a chicken)
He yells at us for no reason at all
Oh baby, when you ask for a raise, he gives you the evil eye (bargains)
It really makes you hungry

Half a pound or eight ounces, we're just like that
Half a pound or eight ounces, a wet firecracker won't go off
Half a pound or eight ounces, if you've got the guts, go rob a bank
Put in half a pound of effort, thinking you'll get back a full eight ounces
Nowadays, with inflation, where can you find an ideal job like that (bullshit)
US working-class stiffs, our whole lives are spent as slaves to money
The hardships we endure would scare the devil (I'll show you what's really scary)
Don't tell me it doesn't matter

Half a pound or eight ounces, even if you have good fortune, you won't enjoy it
Half a pound or eight ounces, worse than a pig's trotter in boiling water
Half a pound or eight ounces, even a little bit of chicken feed is worth pecking at
Put in half a pound of effort, thinking you'll get back a full eight ounces
Nowadays, with inflation, where can you find an ideal job like that

US working-class stiffs
Running around all day only to get indigestion
We earn so little by the end of the month, it's not enough to buy groceries (eat shit)
