I read the news today oh boy
Kubaca berita hari ini, Oh nak
About a lucky man who made the grade
Tentang seorang laki-laki yang membuat kelas
And though the news was rather sad
Meskipun Berita itu lebih menyedihkan
Well I just had to laugh
Ya akupun harus tertawa
I saw the photograph
Kulihat foto itu
He blew his mind out in a car
Dia mengelamun di dalam mobil
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
Dia tak sadar bahwa lampu lalu lintas telah berubah
A crowd of people stood and stared
Segerombolan orang mengermuni dan menontonnya
They'd seen his face before
Mereka melihat wajahnya sebelum
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
Siapapun benar-benar yakin bahwa ia dari House of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy
Kulihat film hari ini oh nak
The English Army had just won the war
Pasukan Inggris baru saja memenangkan perang
A crowd of people turned away
Segerombolan orang berbalik arah
But I just had a look
Tapi tetap kutatap
Having read a book I'd like to turn you on...
Setelah kubaca buku, aku pun ingin menggugah mu untuk...
Woke up, fell out of bed,
Bangung tidur, terjatuhlah dari kasur
Dragged a comb across my head
Kusisir rambutku
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
Kuturuni tangga dan kuminum segelas,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Dan ku tengok ke atas akupun sadar aku terlambat.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Kutemukan jas ku dan ku ambil topiku
Made the bus in seconds flat
Sampailah di bis itu dalam dua detik datar
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Kutemukan jalan ke atas dan kuisap rokok,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream
Seseorang berbicara dan aku pun masuk dalam mimpi
I read the news today oh boy
Ku baca berita hari ini oh nak
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
Empat Ribu lubang di Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
Meskipun itu lubang yang kecil
They had to count them all
Mereka tetap menghitungnya
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall
Sekarang mereka tau bahwa lubang-lubang itu bisa memenuhi Albert Hall
I'd love to turn you on
Aku suka tuk menggugah mu
