LCD Soundsystem《American Dream》英文歌词
正如LCD Soundsystem演唱的《American Dream》一般,正如里面的因为歌词所写的一般,大多数人都拥有一个梦想,差别不过是有的实现了有的终生不见天日。将《American Dream》翻译成中文的话就是美国幻梦,梦想即为虚幻,不容易实现,也正是因为如此,我们才会更加努力。

Wake up with somebody near you
And at someone else's place
You took acid and looked in the mirror
Watched the beard crawl around on your face
Oh the revolution was here
That would set you free from those bourgeoisie
In the morning everything's clearer
When the sunlight exposes your age
But that's okay
And that's okay
Grab your clothes and head to the doorway
If you dance out no one complains
Find the place where you can be boring
Where you won't need to explain
That you're sick in the head and you wish you were dead
Or at least instead of sleeping here you prefer your own bed come on
You just suck at self preservation
Versus someone else's pain
So you feel drained
And insane
And insane
He was leather and you were screaming
Swinging chains against the stage
And you couldn't know he was leaving
But now more will go with age you know
So get up and stop your complaining
You know that you're the only one who's been destroying all the fun
Look what happened when you were dreaming
Then punch yourself in the face
So you kiss and you clutch but you can't fight that feeling
That your one true love is just awaiting your big meeting
So you never even asked for names
You just look right through them as if you already came
It's a drug of the heart and you can't stop the shaking
'Cause the body wants what it's terrible at taking oh
And you can't remember the meaning
But there's no going back against this California feeling
American dream
Sha bang sha bang
American dream
Sha bang sha bang
American dream
Sha bang sha bang
