英文流行歌曲：Cake - Wheels

像Primus和Barenaked Ladies他们一样，Cake也总是小心地把握摇滚和搞笑之间的平衡。其顽皮，会让人笑出眼泪的歌词和偶尔设计夸张出众的CD封面(如代表着成熟风格的《I Will Survive》)使的他们音乐风格常常接近于Dr. Demento的曲风。但是，相比你熟悉的那种新奇曲调，它的动人而又离奇的音乐又多了一些真实的东西。

Cake - Wheels

In a wooden boat in the shipping¹ lanes with the freighters towering over me
I can hear the jets flying overhead making lines across the darkening sky
And when the sun is going down I can take a taxi into town
And the waiter at the restaurant sets a table just for one

Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round, spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round and round

So I had a plane to take me to a place so far away from you
Eventually we began to see that we could be completely free
And I could get away from you and you could get away from me
And we could live each separately in our city in the sun

Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round, spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round and round

In a seedy karaoke bar by the banks of the mighty² Bosphorus
Is a Japanese man in a business suit singing Smoke Gets In Your Eyes
And the muscular cyborg German dudes dance with sexy French Canadians
While the overweight Americans wear their patriotic³ jumpsuits

Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round, spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round and round

Spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round, spinning round, spinning round
I don't know
Why you say you are not in love with me?
