歌词
T.v. Talkin' Song
有次在伦敦,我出门去散了个步,
One time in london i'd gone out for a walk,
路过一个叫做海德公园的地方。人们在那谈论着
Past a place called hyde park where people talk
各式各样的神,他们都有自己的观点。
'bout all kinds of different gods, they have their point of view
向着每个路过的人。他们就向着每个路过的人谈论。
To anyone passing by, that's who they're talking to.
有个人在讲坛上向人们
宣讲着电视之神,以及所有由它而起的痛苦。
There was someone on a platform talking to the folks
“不管对谁来说”,他说,“那都太亮啦。
About the t.v. god and all the pain that it invokes.
要是你没见识过,你准以为那是神的赐福。”
''it's too bright a light'', he said, ''for anybody's eyes,
我凑进些,踮起脚尖。
If you've never seen one it's a blessing in disguise.''
前面的两个男人正夸夸其谈。
I moved in closer, got up on my toes,
其中一个正说着他们年轻时,那些小孩儿的事。
Two men in front of me were coming to blows
摇篮曲唱着的时候,他们被献给了那位神。
The man was saying something 'bout children when they're young
“永远放着当天的那些新闻,
Being sacrificed to it while lullabies are being sung.
永远是那些最时髦的狗屁,那些最流行的儿歌。
你的大脑是你的圣殿,保持它的美妙与自由,
''the news of the day is on all the time,
别让那些你看不见的东西把它弄得一团糟。”
All the latest gossip, all the latest rhyme,
“祈求平静吧!”他说。你可以在喧嚷中捕捉到。
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,
我的思想开始漫游。他的声音轰然回响。
Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.''
“它会摧毁你的家庭,你的快乐家园将消失。
''pray for peace!''. he said, you could feel it in the crowd.
没人可以将你救赎,一旦你打开了它。”
My thoughts began to wander. his voice was ringing loud,
“它将引你陷入奇妙的追逐,
''it will destroy your family, your happy home is gone
领你进入禁果之地。
No one can protect you from it once you turn it on.''
它将涌上你的头部,把你的大脑撕扯个七零八落。
''it will led you into some strange pursuits,
有时你会像猫王那样,将这该死的玩意儿射个稀巴烂。”
Lead you to the land of forbidden fruits.
“全是设计好的。”他说,“毁掉你的心智,
It will scramble up your head and drag your brain about,
当你回头找寻时,什么也找不到。
Sometimes you gotta do like elvis did and shoot the damn thing out.''
你每看它一次,你的情况就越糟一点。
''it's all been designed'', he said, ''to make you lose your mind,
如果你觉得它正支配着你,赶紧去医院。”
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find.''
人群开始暴乱。他们抓住了那个男人。
everytime you look at it, your situation's worse,
推着,嚷着,每个人都在跑着。
If you feel it grabbing out for you, send for the nurse.''
电视人员赶来拍摄。他们直接从我身上跨过。
The crowd began to riot and they grabbed hold of the man,
随后的傍晚时分,我在电视上看到了这事。
There was pushing, there was shoving and everybody ran.
The t.v. crew was there to film it, they jumped right over me,
Later on that evening, i watched it on t.v..
