魔幻的社会——《Man Of The Hour》
今天听一首英文歌吧,《Man Of The Hour》。
这首歌是电影《大鱼》的主题曲,演唱者Pearl Jam,歌名翻译过来意思是“风云人物”,很贴切,片中的儿子一直以为父亲只是个普通的老人,其实,他是真正的风云人物,最后一段简直不要太帅。
这部电影很魔幻,我至今仍记得里面的一句台词:“我的脚非常好吃,有时候我自己都忍不住想吃自己的脚呢。”哈哈,是不是太天马行空了?这就是电影的魅力所在啊,永远能给你一个不同的视角。
最近有很多魔幻新闻,埋骨操场的刚直教师,无辜被打的夜行女子,微博上每个人都戾气冲天,不是怒斥凶手该死,就是辱骂警方无能,我不知该说什么,我也恨死了凶手,但我还是愿意相信警方。
歌词如下:
Tidal waves don't beg forgiveness
Crashed and on their way
Father he enjoyed collisions
others walked away
A snowflake falls in may
And the doors are open now as the bells are ringing out
Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now
Nature has its own religion
gospel from the land
Father ruled by long division
young men they pretend
Old men comprehend
And the sky breaks at dawn
shedding light upon this town
They'll all come round
Cause the man of the hour is taking his final bow
Goodbye for now
And the road
The old man paved
The broken seems along the way
The rusted signs, left just for me
He was guiding me love
his own way
Now the man of the hour is taking his final bow
As the curtain comes down
I feel that this is just goodbye for now
