歌词
English - Nerina Pallot
Oh you'd love to be English
你想要成为英国人
And all you think it is
你脑中想的是
The Queen and her Guards taking tea
女王和她的卫兵喝茶的情景
But the hatred and the bigotry won't go away
但仇恨和偏执仍旧固存
No Blacks no Irish bring no dogs
黑人、爱尔兰人与狗 不得入内
The shame of being something other than the same as everyone else
与众不同是令人羞耻的行为
Well I don't want to be like you
所以我可不愿与你为伍
But my skin is so pale my manner so fine
但我肌肤苍白 举止优雅
You think that I am just like you
你认为我与你并无不同
And you're frightened to travel
你害怕旅行
'Till you make the world look just the same as home
除非这个世界都如家般温馨
While your kids buy guns and shoot their friends
而你的孩子却买枪杀友
And die alone
并孤独死去
No mind no judgment lets you take the blame
无人在意 也无人将你审判责罚
Send those bloody strangers back from where they came
把那些该死的陌生人送回原地吧
Does that mean me too
那意味着我也需要被遣返么?
Or my Mother in her small red coat
或者还有我那穿着小红衣
Stepping off the boat
奔波船岸
Doing jobs you're too d**n lazy to
做着你们所不屑的工作的母亲
All this greatness gone to waste
所有伟大都被浪费
You hide your eyes and turn your face and
你合上双眸 不愿面对
Nothing ever changes no
一成不变
Nothing ever changes
不曾更改
So keep your bulldogs
所以继续固步自封吧
Keep your flags
保留你的立场吧
Cause talk is cheap and
空谈无意
Time will drag and
只荒废了年华
Nothing ever changes no
一成不变
Nothing ever changes
不曾更改
I will always be English
我永远都会是英国人
And all I hope it is
我唯所希望的是
These shores that I will claim as my own
纵然我定居他岸
This broken down Jerusalem
这失落的耶路撒冷
Is still my home
仍是我归所
