老歌亂談(614)Won't Get Fooled Again

推薦 3 收藏 0 轉貼0 訂閱站台



此曲為英國著名樂團The Who的吉他手Pete Townshend,為了一個特定的計畫---Lifehouse ( 內容是以科幻故事為背景的搖滾歌劇 ) 所寫,1971在英國發行後獲得排行榜第9名,而長度達到8分半的原曲,則收錄在隨後發行的專輯《Who's Next》中。



這應該算是首「政治歌曲」,講的是對於「革命 」和「權利」的一些看法。寫歌的Pete Townshend對這類的反政府顯然是悲觀的,認為有些民粹式的抗爭,或許是一種潮流,但結果未必如預期,而且會一再的輪迴。歌詞的最後「Meet the new boss,Same as the old boss」,嘲諷改革者得到權利後,也搞不出什麼新名堂來。

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Though I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
