Sex And Music - David Wilcox
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
There's no sense in talking about music
谈论音乐毫无意义
But talking of sex can be done
但谈论性却可以畅所欲言
The abstraction of music's confusing;
音乐的抽象令人困惑
The directness of sex is more fun
性的直白更让人愉悦
And the road that will take you to both of them is known for its races and wrecks
通往两者的道路以竞速与事故闻名
So there's less of a mystery in music if we get some directions from sex
若从性中获得指引 音乐便少了几分神秘
Sacred ground
神圣之地
The big machine is moving
庞大的机器正在运转
Sacred ground
神圣之地
We're standing in the way
我们正阻挡去路
Sacred ground
神圣之地
They want to pave it over
他们想将其覆盖
Sacred ground
神圣之地
Make it all the same
让一切趋同
At first you say you'll do it for love
起初你说为爱而行
But then you do it with friends
而后却与众人随波
But as soon as you do it for money
一旦为金钱而屈膝妥协
Right there's where the innocence ends
纯真便在此刻荡然无存
For how will you navigate better and worse
当评判标准只剩数据涨跌
With just numbers of people to count
又如何分辨艺术的真劣
See the pop charts are just cutting notches
看排行榜沦为刻痕累累的标尺
For the number of units you mount
衡量着你能收割多少销量
And when spirit gets lost in accounting
当灵魂湮没在账本堆里
The counting takes its toll
算计终将吞噬所有
You find yourself craving more numbers;
你发现自己渴求更多数字的认可
It's the sex-** of rock and roll
这是摇滚乐赤裸裸的诱惑
And it leads you to strange addictions
它让你陷入古怪的沉迷
Like image and marketing spin
比如形象包装与营销话术
You're just trying to get them to like you
你不过是想讨他们欢心
And how could that be such a sin
这怎能算是种罪过

Well what do you want them to like you for
你究竟希望他们喜欢你什么
That's the question to ask
这才是该问的问题
Would it help you if everyone knew your face
若众人皆知你容颜 是否就能如愿
If that face were only a mask
若那面容不过是伪装假面
And why do you want them to like you
为何你渴求他们的青睐
What change are you trying to bring
究竟想带来什么改变
Do you lust after just their attention;
你贪恋的只是他们的注目
Do you want them to come when you sing
还是想让他们闻声而来

Do you wish you could capture their beauty
你是否渴望捕捉那份美好
So that you could feel loved for an hour
只为换取片刻被爱的温存
The power of being attractive
魅力的力量
Or just the attraction of power
抑或权力的诱惑
See sex and music are much the same
看 性与音乐何其相似
We feel with hearts and skin
我们用心灵与肌肤感受
And what you are going to get out of them both
你能从中获得什么
Is just what you put in
全凭你投入几分
