lagu Guy Clark - Terjemahan Lirik Instant Coffee Blues

He washed all the road dirt from his face and from his neck
Dia mencuci semua kotoran jalan dari wajahnya dan dari lehernya
And sat down at her table and she picked up his check.
Dan duduk di mejanya dan dia mengambil ceknya.
And she took him home for reasons that she did not understand.
Dan dia membawanya pulang karena alasan yang tidak dia mengerti.
And him, he had the answers but did not play his hand.
Dan dia, dia punya jawaban tapi tidak main tangannya.
For him he knew the taste of this wine very well.

It all goes down so easily but the next day is hell.
Semuanya turun dengan mudah tapi keesokan harinya adalah neraka.


Morning – “Man was I drunk,” she wispered in the shower.
Pagi – “Man saya mabuk,” dia sembarangan di kamar mandi.
While he lay there and smoked his way there through the final hour.
Sementara dia berbaring di sana dan merokok di sana sampai jam terakhir.
And she felt wholly empty like she’d felt it every time.
Dan dia merasa benar-benar kosong seperti yang dirasakannya setiap saat.
And he was feelin’ just the same, ‘cept he was tryin’ to make it rhyme.
Dan dia merasa sama saja, “seandainya dia mencoba membuat sajak itu.
Time was of the essence so they both did their best,
Waktu adalah esensi sehingga mereka berdua melakukan yang terbaik,
to meet up in the kitchen feelin fully dressed.

She just had to go to work, and he just had to go.
Dia hanya harus pergi bekerja, dan dia harus pergi.
And she knew where and he knew how to blow it off and so.

They shot the breeze quite cavalier to the boilin’ of the pot.
Mereka menembak angin sepoi-sepoi yang cukup angkuh ke bongkahan ‘potnya.
And sang the Instant Coffee Blues and never fired a shot.

And him he hit the driveway with his feelin’s in a case.
Dan dia memukul jalan masuk dengan perasaannya dalam sebuah kasus.
And her she hit the stoplight and touched up her face.

So you tell them the difference between caring and not.

And that it’s all done with mirrors, lest they forgot.
Dan itu semua dilakukan dengan cermin, jangan sampai mereka lupa.


I said it’s all done with mirrors, of which they have none.
Kukatakan semuanya selesai dengan cermin, yang tidak mereka miliki.
