Fool's Day by Blur 愚人節

Fool's Day by Blur 愚人節


這首歌以夢囈般的胡言亂語，描述了歌手在四月一日愚人節早晨醒來後所做的各種事情，如送孩子上學，再到音樂工作室等等，以及他潛意識裡的種種想法念頭與心理活動。

"Fool's Day" is a song by English alternative rock band Blur. It was the band's first single since 2003's "Good Song", and their last to date. The track was released as a 7" for Record Store Day, with only 1000 copies made. On April 18, 2010, to "avoid fans having to illegally obtain an inferior copy of this track from pirate sites", the band made the song a free download on their website in both MP3 and WAV formats. The single is the first release featuring guitarist Graham Coxon since 2003.

Fool's Day by Blur
愚人節  演唱：Blur樂隊

Wake up straight
直挺挺醒來
Called out by the sun
被太陽喚起
On the first day of April
在四月份的頭一日
Out of bed
出得床來
Lord, it was a plane crash
天哪，它是一架墜毀的飛機
But I’m sure that I was dreaming
但我確信自己是在做夢
TV on
電視開著
Of course caffeine and signs
當然咖啡因和簽名
Of submission again
屬於再度樣品展的
Another day
又一天
On this little island
在這個小島上
Just a bell hangs on
恰好掛著一口鐘

Porridge done
麥片粥煮好了
I take my kid to school
我送孩子去學校
It was the pound shop, Woolworth’s
它是伍爾沃思的“重磅商店”
Under bridge
在橋下麵
Where the subway sees the daytime
那裡地鐵看到白天
And the West Way flies by then on my bike
那些“西路文件”被隨後馱在了我單車上
Down the Ladbroke Grove
再下到“童破小林”路
To the forthcoming dramas
到“即將上演的劇”
The studio
工作室
And a love of all sweet music
一個滿是甜蜜音樂的愛
We just can’t let go
我們就是不夠放鬆
Let go… let go… let go… let go… let go…
放鬆，放鬆，放鬆，放鬆，放鬆……

So meditate
如此沉思冥想
On what we’ve all become
於我們都變成的東西
On a cold day in springtime
在一個春季的寒冷日子裡
Civil War
內戰
Is what we all were born into
是我們都生進去的玩意
Raise your left hand, right, sing
舉起你的左手，對(右)，唱起來
Don’t capitulate
別投降
To the forces of the market place
給市場的力量
They’re long departed
它們是長久分離的
Consolidate
統一
The love we’ve had together
我們共同擁有的愛
On a cold day in springtime
在一個春季的寒冷日子裡
