The Old Man's Back Again (Dedicated To The Neo-Stalinist Regime) 歌词
I seen a hand, I seen a vision
我做了一场梦 梦见一只手
It was reaching through the clouds, To risk a dream
它拔开层层云雾 这场梦变得格外危险
A shadow cross the sky
那道影子拂过天空
And it crushed into the ground, Just like a beast
那只手像野兽一样被压得喘不过气
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
I seen a woman, standing in the snow
我看到一个女人孤零零站在雪地上面
She was silent as she watched them take her man
她沉默不语 呆滞地看他们带走她的爱人
Teardrops burned her cheeks
泪珠灼伤了她的面颊
For she thought she'd heard, The shadow had left this land
她仿佛觉得阴影已经离开了这片地
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
The crowds just gathered, their faces turned away
广场人山人海 那些人别过脸去
And they queue all day like dragons of disgust
无精打采地排着队 一个个都很丧
All the women whispering
所有的女人都在窃窃私语
Wondering just what these young hot-heads want of us
讨论想知道那些鲁莽年轻人要我们做什么
And entres vie he cries
有个男孩子哭着进来
With eyes that ring like chimes
伴着像一阵钟声的眼
His anti-worlds go spinning through his head
他脑里回旋可怕的想法 他要反抗这个世界
He burns them in his dreams
后来他做了梦 打消了这念头
For half awake they may as well be dead
他们浅眠着 像死人安息着
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
I see he's back again
我亲眼所见 他又回来了
I see a soldier, He's standing in the rain
我看见一个士兵淋着雨
For him there's no old man to walk behind
他没有察觉到 有名老人尾随着他
Devoured by his pain
痛苦 吞噬着
Bewildered by the faces who pass him by
迷茫 覆盖他的脸庞
He'd like another name the one he's got's a curse
他得到一个名字 对他而言这名字宛如诅咒
These people cried
这些人不约而同哭了
Why can't they understand
为何他们无法理解
His mother called him Ivan then she died
他的妈妈叫Ivan 然后她死了
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
The old man's back again
那个老人又回来了
I can see him back again
我亲眼所见 他又回来了
