The Surfer

Ezra Koenig

Testi Traduzione

Back on the island, Water Tunnel 3
A cage ascended, someone looks like me
Look up at fingers reaching into space
A Roman soldier's spearhead jammed above the waist

Heard someone speaking, a voice without a face
The ocean's churning, the cables stay in place
An operation the locals couldn't save
An undercover agent drowned beneath the waves

Outside the confines of a super-mini's door
There's a California king placed directly on the floor
Oh, the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck
But you were born beneath fluorescent lights
You've never seen a starry night, you saint

Fake fortune teller scandalized by fate
Broke bodybuilder crushed beneath the weight
Lost and deluded trying to find your place
Inept long-distance runner losing every race

Outside the confines of a super-mini's door
There's a California king placed directly on the floor
Oh, the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck
But you were born beneath fluorescent lights
You've never seen a starry night, you saint

Back on the island, Water Tunnel 3
De vuelta en la isla, Túnel de Agua 3
A cage ascended, someone looks like me
Una jaula ascendió, alguien se parece a mí
Look up at fingers reaching into space
Mira hacia arriba a los dedos que alcanzan el espacio
A Roman soldier's spearhead jammed above the waist
La punta de una lanza de un soldado romano atascada por encima de la cintura
Heard someone speaking, a voice without a face
Escuché a alguien hablar, una voz sin rostro
The ocean's churning, the cables stay in place
El océano está agitado, los cables permanecen en su lugar
An operation the locals couldn't save
Una operación que los locales no pudieron salvar
An undercover agent drowned beneath the waves
Un agente encubierto se ahogó bajo las olas
Outside the confines of a super-mini's door
Fuera de los confines de la puerta de un super-mini
There's a California king placed directly on the floor
Hay un rey de California colocado directamente en el suelo
Oh, the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck
Oh, el surfista no puede olvidar las conchas alrededor de su cuello
But you were born beneath fluorescent lights
Pero tú naciste bajo luces fluorescentes
You've never seen a starry night, you saint
Nunca has visto una noche estrellada, santo
Fake fortune teller scandalized by fate
Falso adivino escandalizado por el destino
Broke bodybuilder crushed beneath the weight
Culturista roto aplastado bajo el peso
Lost and deluded trying to find your place
Perdido y delirante tratando de encontrar tu lugar
Inept long-distance runner losing every race
Corredor de larga distancia inepto perdiendo cada carrera
Outside the confines of a super-mini's door
Fuera de los confines de la puerta de un super-mini
There's a California king placed directly on the floor
Hay un rey de California colocado directamente en el suelo
Oh, the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck
Oh, el surfista no puede olvidar las conchas alrededor de su cuello
But you were born beneath fluorescent lights
Pero tú naciste bajo luces fluorescentes
You've never seen a starry night, you saint
Nunca has visto una noche estrellada, santo

[Verse 1]
Kembali di pulau, Terowongan Air 3
Kandang naik, seseorang yang mirip denganku
Melihat ke jari-jari yang mencapai langit
Kepala tombak prajurit Romawi mengoyak bagian di atas pinggang

[Verse 2]
Mendengar seseorang berbicara, suara tanpa rupa
Ombak laut bergerak kencang, kabel-kabel tetap pada tempatnya
Sebuah operasi yang penduduk lokal tak dapat menyelamatkan
Seorang agen rahasia tenggelam dalam gelombang

[Chorus]
Di luar batasan pintu minimarket
Ada kasur California king diletakkan langsung di lantai
Oh, peselancar takkan lupa kerang yang mengalungi lehernya
Tapi kau lahir disinari cahaya lampu neon
Kau tak pernah mеlihat malam berbintang, kau orang suci

[Verse 3]
Peramal palsu dikejutkan takdir
Binaragawan miskin hancur tеrtekan oleh beban
Hilang dan keliru mencoba mencari tempatmu
Pelari jarak jauh yang tidak terampil kalah dalam setiap lomba

[Chorus]
Di luar batasan pintu minimarket
Ada kasur California king diletakkan langsung di lantai
Oh, peselancar takkan lupa kerang yang mengalungi lehernya
Tapi kau lahir disinari cahaya lampu neon
Kau tak pernah melihat malam berbintang, kau orang suci
