弹簧折刀（1996）

三到四次的芥末还有饼干
three or four times a week.
可是老家伙狄克逊
But old man Dixon…
有一个儿子
he had a boy…
叫杰西狄克逊
name of Jesse Dixon.
杰西的确比他的父亲还要残忍♥
Jesse was more cruel than his daddy was.
在学校里的时候
He used to make quite a bit of sport of me…
他常常就嘲笑我 侮辱我
when I was down there at the schoolhouse.
他还经常勾引邻居那些小女孩
Used to take advantage of the girls in the neighborhood.
他还常常说
They used to say…
我妈妈是一个很漂亮的女人
that my mother was a very pretty woman.
每当我去上学的时候
They said that quite a bit
他总是没完没了的对我说这些
when I’d be there at the schoolhouse.
我知道 你一定希望我能习惯这些
I reckon you want me to get on with it
我来告诉你发生了什么
and tell you what happened.
我知道我会告诉你的
So I reckon l’ll tell you.
一天晚上我正坐在小屋里无所事事
I was setting out in the shed one evening, not doing much…
一直盯着墙面
just staring at the wall…
等我的母亲出来给我上圣经课
and waiting on my mother to give me my Bible lesson.
可我听到房♥子里边有动静
I heard a commotion in the house…
我跑到门廊那里看看出了什么事
so I run up on the screened-in porch to look inside.
我从窗户看进去 看见妈妈躺在地板上
I looked in and seen my mother laying on the floor
什么衣服也没有穿
without any clothes on.
我看见杰西狄克逊躺在她的上面
I seen Jesse Dixon laying on top of her.
我不知道他都干了什么
He was having his way with her.
可我生气极了
I just seen red.
我就捡起玻璃门旁放着的一把凯撒刀
I picked up a Kaiser blade that was sitting by the door.
有的人管它叫弹簧刀 可我叫它凯撒刀
Some folks called it a sling blade. I called it a Kaiser blade.
它有一个很长的木手柄 就像斧子的手柄一样…
It’s got a long, wood handle, kind of like an ax handle…
前面的刀也很长 形状很像香蕉
with a long blade shaped like a banana.
刀一边锋利另一边是钝的
Sharp on one edge and dull on the other.
公路边的男孩子通常用这种刀除草 还有别的什么东西
It’s what the highway boys use to cut down weeds and whatnot.
我走进了房♥间
I went in the house…
我用刀砍了杰西的脑袋
and l hit Jesse Dixon upside the head with it…
把他从我母亲身上砸下来
knocked him off my mother.
我知道那样不够保险
I reckon that didn’t satisfy me…
就在他的脖子上又砍了下去
so I hit him again in the neck with the sharp edge…
几乎快把他的脑袋砍了下来 我杀了他
and just plumb near cut his head off, killed him.
我的妈妈从地上跳起来 冲我大声叫
My mother jumped up and started hollering…
你为什么要杀了杰西
“What did you kill Jesse for?”
我这才发现
Well, come to find out…
原来我妈妈 并不介意杰西对她所做的事情
my mother didn’t mind what Jesse was doing to her.
她的表现比杰西还要让我愤怒
That made me madder than what Jesse’d made me…
所以我又拿起了凯撒刀
so I took the Kaiser blade…
有些人管它叫弹簧刀 可我叫它凯撒刀
some folks called it a sling blade, I called it a Kaiser blade…
我用刀从我妈妈的头上砍了下去
and I hit my mother upside the head with it.
杀了她
Killed her.
有些家伙问过我
Some folks has asked me…
如果一切再重来 你还会不会做同样的事情
if you had it to do over again, would you do it the same way?
我知道我会的
I reckon I would.
不管怎么样 他们把我送到这儿来还是对的
Anyhow, they put me in here…
我在这里待了很长的一段时间

Took me four years to read the Bible.

不过有些东西不是我所期望的

我在一张很舒服的床上 睡了很长时间
l’ve slept in a good bed for a great, long while.
现在他们认为该把我送出去了
Now they’ve seen fit to put me out of here.
他们说今天就要让我获得自♥由♥
