Conversation Piece - David Bowie (大卫·鲍伊)

I took this walk to ease my mind

To find out what's gnawing at me

Wouldn't think to look at me

That I've spent a lot of time in education

It all seems so long ago I'm a thinker not a talker

I've no one to talk to anyway

I can't see the road for the rain in my eyes

Ahhh

I live above the grocers storeowned by an Austrian

He often calls me down to eat

And he jokes about his broken Englishtries to be a friend to me

But for all my years of reading conversation

I stand without a word to say

I can't see the bridge for the rain in my eyes

Ahhh

And the world is full of life Full of folk who don't know me

And they walk in twos or threes or more

While the light that shines above the grocer's store

Investigates my face so rudely

And my essays lying scattered on the floor

Fulfill their needs just by being there

And my hands shake my head hurts

My voice sticks inside my throat

I'm invisible and dumbAnd no one will recall me

And I can't see the water for the tears in my ey yyes
