歌词
Born to multiply or born to gaze into night skies
生来是为了传宗接代还是为了凝视夜空
When all you want's one more Saturday
然而你只是想再过一个星期六
But look here until then
但是,请看,在那之前
They're gonna buy your life's time
它们会买断你一生的时光
So keep your wick in the air and your feet in the fetters
所以请保持思想的自由,即使双脚被束缚
To the day
直到有一天
We come in doing cartwheels
我们做着侧手翻而来
We all crawl out by ourselves
我们从自己的躯壳中爬出来
And your shape on the dance floor
舞台上你的身影
Will have me thinking such filth and gauge my eyes
让我产生了邪恶的想法,让我睁大双眼
You'd be damned to be one of us girl
女孩,你注定是我们其中的一员
Faced with a dodo's conundrum
面临着有翅膀却不能飞翔的困境
Ah I felt like I could just fly
啊,我感觉自己能飞
But nothing happened every time I tried
但是每次尝试我都一无所获
A dual tone under wall
墙下的双重唱
The selfless fool who hoped he'd save us all
无私的傻瓜希望能拯救我们所有人
He never dreamt of such sterile hands
他从未想过会有如此一尘不染的双手
You keep them folded in your lap
你将双手叠放在大腿上
Or raise them up to beg for scraps
或者举起双手乞讨些残羹剩饭
You know he's holding you down
你知道,他在拖你后腿
With the tips of his fingers just the same
仅仅用他的指尖
Will you be pulled from the ocean
他能把你拉离这深海吗
But just a minute too late
但是哪怕只是迟了一分钟
Or changed by a potion
或者是有了一点点的改变
And find a handsome young mate
于是就找到一个年轻英俊的男朋友
For you to love
让你去爱他
You'll be damned to pining through the windowpanes
你注定将会隔着窗框苦苦地思念
You know you'd trade your life for any ordinary Joe's
你知道你会为了任何一个平凡的人而奉献出自己的生命
Well do it now or grow old
好吧,要做就现在做,否则就老了
Your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold
你的噩梦只需要一两年便能成真
Been alone since you were twenty-one
从二十一岁起便孤身一人
You haven't laughed since January
一月过后就再也没有见过你的微笑
You try and make like this is so much fun
你尽力尝试着去表现这很有趣
But we know it to be quite contrary
但是我们知道事实并非如此
Dare to be one of us girl
女孩,勇敢的加入我们吧
Facing the android's conundrum
面对不能飞翔的困境
Ah I feel like I should just cry
啊,我感觉自己应该放声大哭
But nothing happens every time I take one on the chin
但是每次我忍气吞声都一无所获
Yeah him wearing your coat
是的,他正穿着你的大衣
You don't know how long I've been
你不知道我已经看了多久
Watching the lantern dim
看着灯慢慢变暗
Starved of oxygen
渴望着氧气
So give me your hand
所以请给我你的手
And let's jump out the window
让我们一起从这窗口跳下去吧
