Life On Mars?

Life On Mars? - Sophia Anne Caruso
Written by：David Bowie

這是件糟糕透頂的小事情
Its a god awful small affair
那個鼠灰色頭髮的女孩兒如是想

她的媽媽高聲喊著“不行”
To the girl with the mousy hair
而她的爸爸准許她去

可她的同伴早已遠行不知所踪
But her mummy is yelling no
她走在沉淪的夢的碎片上

去到那個視線最好的座位
And her daddy has told her to go
大銀幕令她無比著迷

但是那場電影真是無聊得教人悲傷
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
同樣的把戲她看過十次有餘

有時她真想向那些傻瓜的眼中吐唾沫
Now she walks through her sunken dream
因為他們仍要她集中註意

舞廳里大打出手的水手
To the seat with the clearest view
噢伙計

看看那些穴居人都乾了些什麼
And shes hooked to the silver screen
這可是最怪奇的演出

看吶那個警察
But the film is a saddening bore
痛打著一個無罪的人

上帝啊真想知道他到底是否明白
For shes lived it ten times or more
他正身處最棒的展銷會之中

火星上會有生命嗎
She could spit in the eyes of fools
在美國式的商業化運作機制下
As they ask her to focus on
米老鼠都能長得像頭大牛
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
工人們希望罷工能幫助他們爭取到合法權益

因為列儂的那點兒周邊又在大賣特賣
Oh man
而無數流離失所疲於生計的人們只能蜷縮在老鼠氾濫的貧民窟

從伊比沙島到諾福克湖區
Look at those cavemen go
大英法律嚴格得出奇

尤其是對我的母親小狗以及那些滑稽的小丑來說
Its the freakiest show
可這故事依舊是個令人厭煩的悲劇

我曾寫過一遍又一遍
Take a look at the lawman
而此刻即將再來一遍
Beating up the wrong guy
好讓你意識到

水手們在舞廳里大打出手
Oh man wonder if hell ever know
天吶

看看那些老古董要去到何處
Hes in the best selling show
這是最怪異的表演

瞧瞧那個警察
Is there life on Mars
抓錯了人還將他痛打一番

噢伙計真想明白他是否了解
Its on Americas tortured brow
他正身處最棒的展銷會

火星上有生命存在嗎
That mickey mouse has grown up acow

Now the workers have struck for fame

Cause Lennons on sale again

See the mice in their million hordes

From Ibiza to the Norfolk broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds

To my mother my dog and clowns

But the film is a saddening bore
Cause I wrote it ten times or more

Its about to be writ again

As I ask you to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall

Oh man
Look at those cavemen go

Its the freakiest show

Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy

Oh man wonder if hell ever know

Hes in the best selling show

Is there life on Mars
