Revolution Calling / 革命正兴起
For a price I'd do about anything
Except pull the trigger
For that I'd need a pretty good cause
Then I heard of Dr. X
The man with the cure
Just watch the television
Yeah, you'll see there's something going on
只要有报酬,我愿意做任何事情。
除了扣下板机之外,除非真有必要。
接着我听说了X博士,象徵救赎的希望。
转开电视吧,山雨欲来风满楼。
Got no love for politicians
Or that crazy scene in D.C.
It's just a power mad town
But the time is ripe for changes
There's a growing feeling
That taking a chance on a new kind of vision is due
我从不喜欢政客,或着在华府疯狂的激情,
那只是个失控的疯狂城市。
但时间是改变的最佳催化剂,
有种感觉正慢慢酝酿着,
告诉我似乎该用新的观点看这世界。
I used to trust the media
To tell me the truth, tell us the truth
But now I've seen the payoffs
Everywhere I look
Who do you trust when everyone's a crook?
从前我相信媒体所说的就是事实,都是真实的。
但现在我看到我们付出的代价,
睁大眼睛看看周围吧!
当所有人都是骗子时,你该相信谁?
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Revolution calling you
[There's a] Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Gotta make a change
Gotta push, gotta push it on through
革命正呼唤着,革命正兴起,革命正呼唤着你!
革命正呼唤着,革命正兴起!
是时候改变了,是时候该掀起革命!
I'm tired of all this bullshit
They keep selling me on T.V.
About the communist plan
And all the shady preachers
Begging for my cash
Swiss bank accounts while giving their
Secretaries the slam
我已经对他们说的那些狗屁感到厌倦,
他们不停将他们的理念在电视上反覆播送洗脑,
那些狗屁共产主义。
躲在暗处的传教者,
剥削着我们的金钱,
瑞士银行的会计师正欢愉的跟秘书干上一炮。
They're all in Penthouse now
Or Playboy magazine, million dollar stories to tell
I guess Warhol wasn't wrong
Fame fifteen minutes long
Everyone's using everybody, making the sale
现在他们都在阁楼和花花公子里,
诉说着金钱致富的故事。
我猜安迪沃荷(注一)说的对,
每个人都能成名15分钟,
人人互相利用,换取利益。
I used to think
That only America's way, way was right
But now the holy dollar rules everybody's lives
Gotta make a million doesn't matter who dies
从前我想我们美帝是对的,不可能有错。
但现在神圣的美元主宰人民生活,
应该赚取大笔金钱,管他是谁被踩在脚下。
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Revolution calling you
[There's a] Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Gotta make a change
Gotta push, gotta push it on through
革命正呼唤着,革命正兴起,革命正呼唤着你!
革命正呼唤着,革命正兴起!
是时候改变了,是时候该掀起革命!
注:安迪沃荷主张艺术应该跟金钱挂勾。
*:这句我觉得我翻译得很鸟,抓不到原词意思,有没有人可以补充?
