歌詞以漢彌頓的靈魂第一人稱吟唱
第1節,漢彌頓充滿無奈感慨和不知自己為何會淪落在靈魂與人之間 ,並懇請old king cole音樂小丑繼續演奏牠的歌曲伴隨他成長
第2節,一段激烈而浪漫的演奏,描速一直快速成長肉體和慾望的糾葛
第3節.他已經長成人形兒開始向辛西亞求愛,懇求辛西亞憐憫他,愛撫牠…

Play me old king cole
That I may join with you,
All your hearts now seem so far from me
It hardly seems to matter now...
(妳)玩耍我這個老科爾王(音樂盒玩具)
如此我就可以和妳玩在一起,
而妳的心如今似乎離我很遠
而今也無所謂了...
And the nurse will tell you lies , Of a kingdom beyond the skies.
But I am lost within this half-world , It hardly seems to matter now.
保母會告訴妳關於一個天國(天堂)的謊言
而我的中陰身(半人半鬼)在靈界裡迷失了,如今也無所謂了...
Play me my song.
Here it comes again.
Play me my song.
Here it comes again.
播放我(音樂盒)的歌,
(小丑Old King Cole唱)音樂來了...
播放我的歌,
(小丑Old King Cole唱)音樂又來了...
Just a little bit,
Just a little bit more time,
Time left to live out my life...
只要一點點,
只要多一點時間,
多些時間來孵育出我的生命來...
(演奏)
Play me my song.
Here it comes again.
Play me my song.
Here it comes again.
播放我的歌,
音樂來了...
播放我的歌,
音樂它又來了...

(演奏)
Old king cole was a merry old soul,
And a merry old soul was he.
So he called for his pipe,
And he called for his bowl,
And he called for his fiddlers three.
老國王科爾是一個快樂的老靈魂,
快樂的老靈魂,他是的。
所以他在找他的笛子,
他在找他的(遊戲的)槌球,
他在召喚他的三個小提琴手。 註:這三個音樂傀儡是老國王科爾宮廷中的小提琴手弄臣
But the clock, tick-tock, On the mantlepiece -
And I want, and I feel, and I know, and I touch,
Her warmth...
壁爐台上的時鐘,嘀嗒,嘀嗒響 ..
我想要,我感覺到,而我知道,並且我碰觸到..
她的溫暖...
< Sec3 >
小男童的靈魂隨著音樂盒轉動加速孵出成熟人形,從音樂盒蹦出已經是個老人...
Shes a lady, shes got time,
Brush back your hair, and let me get to know your face.
Shes a lady, she is mine..
Brush back your hair, and let me get to know your flesh.
她是一個淑女,她(年輕)有的是時間,
撥後妳的頭髮,讓我看看妳的臉。
她是一個淑女,她是我的..
撥落妳的頭髮,,讓我熟悉妳的肉體。
Ive been waiting here for so long
And all this time has passed me by
It doesnt seem to matter now
You stand there with your fixed expression
Casting doubt on all I have to say.
Why dont you touch me, touch me,
Why dont you touch me, touch me,
Touch me now, now, now, now, now...
我在這裡等候良久
而時間飛逝流走
現在似乎一切都不重要了
妳站在那裡表情凝結
對我所說的一切置疑。
妳為什麼不碰我,碰我,
妳為什麼不碰我,碰我,
現在觸摸我,現在,現在,就是現在...
