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
