The Worst Of Progress....
I was out probing the weaknesses in society
我走出家门,探索社会的弱点
When I finally got all of my fat little fingers burned
这使我吃尽了苦头
And worst of all, and warts and all,
最糟糕的是,无论好坏
None of it was worth whatever I learned
我所学到的根本不值一提
I was intent upon my progress
我对我的进展热切无比
Howling life was hanging on the telephone
嚎叫的生命等待着电话接通
Why are the colours on the map always running?
为何地图上的色彩奔流不休?
If it's really the truth, well, it isn't your own
如果这就是真理,好吧,它也不是你的真理
Reach for the beautiful day
抓住这美丽的一天
Reach for the far-off shore
驶向那遥不可及的堤岸
For one day you'll reach no more
总有一天你触手只有虚无
I get absolutely no pleasure from singing this song
唱着这首歌我只觉索然无趣
And hell, hell hath no fury when you laugh
大笑的你可怖胜于地狱之火
Please don't interrupt me with dumb readings
请别用你宇宙起源频谱仪里那些愚蠢的读数
From your cosmic origins spectrograph
来打搅我
Listen now I have a prediction
听着,我作出了一个预言
You won't be looking long into the gloom
你不会久久注目于阴暗
And it won't be going on forever
那不会永远持续
And we won't be going to the moon
我们不会再去往月球
But up we go…
但,走吧……
Reach for the beautiful day
抓住这美丽的一天
Reach for the far-off shore
驶向那遥不可及的堤岸
For one day you'll reach no more
总有一天你触手只有虚无
