歌曲里看到的都是世界丑陋的一面，但同时又给予人们一些希望。正如歌词所说It's not all dirty, but it's not all clean 或许现在我眼里的世界就是这样，往往是失望大于希望，现实的残酷甚至让人绝望，但我们要相信，就算前面是尽头，希望肯定在转角。正如U will love me, I will love u……
Walk in a corner shop
See a shoplifting cop
See the old lady with a gun
See the hero try 2 run
Nothing's what it seems, I mean
It's not all dirty, but it's not all clean
There's children paying bills
There's monks buying thrills
There's pride for sale in magazines
There's pills for rent 2 make u clean
Marvin Gaye, there's no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie's land can't feed Mother
CHORUS
Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one 2 blame
For all the pain that life brings
If u will just take me It might just complete me
And together we can make a stand
A waitress brings me lunch
We meet but do not touch
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
While in the corner, King's dream dies
Go 2 the counter, pay for me and my friend
A homeless man pulls out a roll, says it's on him
The mayor has no cash
He said he spent it on hookers and hash
CHORUS
U will love me, I will love u
CHORUS
歌词翻译:
在街角的商店走着,
看到一个入店行窃的警察,
看到一个拿着枪的老妇,
看到两个正要逃跑的穷少年,
事情也许不像我们看到的一样,我想,
事情不全部是肮脏的,但也不全是干净的.
看到小孩子们在付着帐单.
修道士寻求刺激,
自尊在杂志上待售,
可以让人清净的药丸在等待出租,
Marvin Gaye唱着,我们失去了兄弟,
Woody Guthrie的土地不能喂养母亲,
副歌
母亲在啜泣,孩子已经睡去,
暴力在宁静中结束,
可耻的是找不到应当为此负责的人,
因为他给生活带来了如此多的痛苦,
如果你也爱我,这将使我完美,
我们一起奋力抗争.
一个女服务员端来我的午餐,
我们相遇但没有接触,
电视正在兜售谎言,
而在角落里,一个美梦破灭,
我走向柜台,为我和我的朋友买单,
一个无家可归的男人扯出一卷现金
镇长没有了现金,
他说他把钱花在吃喝嫖赌上了
副歌
母亲在啜泣,孩子已经睡去,
暴力在宁静中结束,
可耻的是找不到应当为此负责的人,
因为他给生活带来了如此多的痛苦,
如果你也爱我,这将使我完美,
我们一起奋力抗争.
你们爱我,我也爱你们
副歌
母亲在啜泣,孩子已经睡去,
暴力在宁静中结束,
可耻的是找不到应当为此负责的人,
因为他给生活带来了如此多的痛苦,
如果你也爱我,这将使我完美,
我们一起奋力抗争. |
