某些翻译
大学最后一门考试考完了，回家无聊翻电脑翻出了这些东西。
当时和网友约好的是一起翻完整张holy bible发在论坛上的，后来全部翻译完了却不了了之，不忍心看它们在电脑里面被遗忘，还是把我当时翻译的发上来吧。
有的翻译曾经在richey edwards小组里面发过，那里的多是我高中时候的翻译，以下的翻译则经过了一些修正，不过难免也会有些错误，欢迎共同探讨。

QUOTES:
"Prostitution of The Self. The majority of your time is spent doing something you hate to get something you don't need. Everyone has a price to buy themselves out of freedom. "Say Yes to Everything""
(Richey James; The Holy Bible-Tour Book)
"It looks at the way that society views prostitutes as probably the lowest form of life. But we feel that we've prostituted ourselves over the last three or four years, and we think it's the same in every walk of life.
Marlene Dietrich said that she'd been photographed to death. Red indians believe that every time they're photographed, a piece of their soul goes. We came to a point when we felt a bit like that. I don't want to come across like Eddie Vedder or something, because we've always made an effort to make our pictures fairly aesthetic. But you just come to a point where you think, 'Why are we doing this?' it must come with maturity.
There's a line in there: 'tie his hair in bunches, fuck him, call him Rita if you want'. You do get to a position when you're in a band where you can virtually do anything you want, in any kind of sick, low form. It's not something we've particularly indulged in, but it is a nasty by-product of being in a group."\
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker, 27 August 1994)
intro
"You can buy her, you can buy her, this one's here, this one's here, this one's here, and this one's here. Everything's for sale"
你可以买她,这边的一个或是那边的一个,所有的东西都待售
For sale? dumb cunt's same dumb questions
virgin? listen, all virgins are liars honey
and I don't know what I'm scared of or what I even enjoy
dulling, get money, but nothing turns out like you want it to
出来卖的吗? 那些蠢货总是问着同样的蠢问题
是处的吗? 听好了,所有的处都是说谎的甜心
我不知道我害怕着什么,我甚至不知道我享受着什么
我只是麻木的拿着钱,但这一切都不是我想要的
and in these plagued streets of pity you can buy anything
for $200 anyone can conceive a God on video
he's a boy, you want a girl so tear off his cock
tie his hair in bunches, fuck him, call him Rita if you want
在这些病态的怜悯之街上你可以买到任何东西
只要两百块每个人都可以在录像里扮演上帝 [1]
他是个男孩但是如果你想要个女孩的话不妨阉了他
如果你想的话,把他的头发扎成辫子,操了他,叫他Rita
I eat and I dress and I wash and I still can say thank you
puking - shaking - sinking I still stand for old ladies
can't shout, can't scream, hurt myself to get pain out
我为我拥有的食物衣服感恩戴德
即使呕吐颤抖堕落,我依旧为那些老女人服务
不能大喊,不能尖叫,伤害我自己以释放痛苦
I 'T' them, 24:7, all year long
purgatory's circle, drowning here, someone will always say yes
funny place for the social, for the insects to start caring
just an ambulance at the bottom of a cliff
我一天24小时全年无休的接客
炼狱一般的循环,一旦沉沦,你就会一直顺从
有趣的的社交地方,卑贱的虫子在这里也会得到照顾
就像是悬崖底部的一辆救护车 [2]
in these plagued streets of pity you can buy anything
for $200 anyone can conceive a God on video
he's a boy, you want a girl so tear off his cock
tie his hair in bunches, fuck him, call him Rita if you want, if you want
I eat and I dress and I wash and I can still say thank you
puking - shaking - sinking I still stand for old ladies
can't shout, can't scream, hurt myself to get pain out
power produces desire, the weak have none
there's no lust in this coma even for a fifty
solitude, solitude, the 11th commandment
强者拥有着欲望,而弱者无权享有
在这场漫长的昏迷中不存在任何情欲
孤独啊孤独,第十一条戒律[3]
the only certain thing that is left about me
there's no part of my body that has not been used
pity or pain, to show displeasure's shame
everyone I've loved or hated always seems to leave
最终我能唯一确定的关于我的事
就是我身上的没有哪个地方没被用过
怜悯或痛苦,表现的都是不愉快的羞耻
我爱过或恨过的每一个人都会离开
and in these plagued streets of pity you can buy anything
for $200 anyone can conceive a God on video
he's a boy, you want a girl so tear off his cock
tie his hair in bunches, fuck him, call him Rita if you want, if you want
power produces desire, the weak have none
there's no lust in this coma even for a fifty
solitude, solitude, the 11th commandment
don't hurt, just obey, lie down, do as they say
may as well be heaven this hell, smells the same
these sunless afternoons I can't find myself.
不要自我伤害,只要顺从就好,照他们说的躺下
这个地狱也会像天堂一样,至少闻起来
在这些没有太阳的下午,我找不到自我
[1]:for $200 anyone can conceive a God on video,红灯区的一种特殊服务,即花上两百块你可以以自己为主角制作AV光碟.
[2]:just an ambulance at the bottom of a cliff,据说次句引用了一个真实故事,在有小孩失足掉落悬崖的时候,政府采取的措施不是在悬崖处设立保护网而是在悬崖下面停一辆救护车,为了节省费用.此句意为讽刺病态的社会.
[3]::commandment.即基督教的十戒.
Of Walking Abortion
LYRICS:Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC:James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:"There is little hope..." East European truths - Horthy + Tisu (anti-Semitic/Fascist) - revived and brought back home. Facts ignored. Carve your mortal certainty there. Should we have been born/still born/walking sideways unable to make a decision of any consequence. Modern life makes thought an embarrassment. Your true reflection = Junkies, winos, whores. Who's responsible?"
(Richey James; The Holy Bible-Tour Book)
"There's a line: 'Horthy's corpse screened to a million'. Horthy was a hungarian fascist military dictator before the Second World War, and the devotion that a fascist dictator can achieve just shows such a terrible flaw in human nature. There's always a chance that it'll be revived, because there's a worm in human nature that makes us want to be dominated."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker, 27 August 1994)
intro:"I knew that some day I was gonna die, and I knew before I died, that two things would happen to me: that, number one, I would regret my entire life, and that, number two, I would want to live my life over again."
我知道有一天我将死去,我知道在我死之前会发生两件事,一是,我会后悔我的整整一生,二是,
我会希望将我的生命从头来一遍.
Life is lead weights, pendulum died
Pure or lost, spectator or crucified
Recognised truth acedia's blackest hole
Junkies winos whores the nation's moral suicide
生命是最沉重的砝码,它让钟摆停止
纯净或是迷失,围观者或是殉难者
公认的真相是懒惰的最黑暗的洞穴
毒瘾者,酒鬼,娼妓,这个国家的道德自杀
Loser, liar, fake or phoney
No one care
Everyone is guilty
Fucked up, dunno why
You poor little boy
失败者,说谎者,虚伪的人或是骗子
没有人在意
每个人都有罪
搞砸了还不知道为什么
你这可怜的小男孩
We are all of walking abortion
Shalom[1] shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
我们都是行走的畸形儿[1]
你好,你好,我们都爱我们的孩子
我们都是行走的畸形儿
你好,你好,不存在什么地平线
Mussolini hangs from a butcher's hook
Hitler reprised in the worm of your soul
Horthy's corpse screened to a million
Tiso revived, the horror of a bullfight
屠夫的钩子上挂着墨索里尼
你灵魂中的蛆虫孕育着希特勒
霍尔蒂[3]的尸体遮住了百万生命
季索[4]再生,带来了斗牛般的恐怖
Fragments of uniforms
Open black ruins
A moral conscience
You've no wounds to show
So wash your car
In your X baseball shoes
制服的碎片
广大的黑色废墟
一个道德的良知
你没有伤口可以展示
所以穿着你X号的棒球鞋
洗你的车去吧
We are all of walking abortions
Shalom shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
Little people in little houses
Like maggots small blind and worthless
The massacred innocent blood stains us all
渺小的人住在狭小的房子里
像是蛆虫一般弱小盲目毫无价值
大屠杀流下的无辜鲜血玷污了我们所有人
Who's responsible, you fucking are
Who's responsible, you fucking are...
谁该负责,他妈的就是你们.
[1]of walking abortion:引自Valerie Solanas的小说S.C.U.M. Manifest. Valerie Solanas是一个激进的女权主义者,她主张 所有的男性都是有生理缺陷的畸形儿 以及 清除所有男性. 另外,她曾经枪击过Andy Warhol.

She Is Suffering
LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES: "'She' is desire. In other Bibles and Holy Books no truth is possible until you empty yourself of desire. All commitment otherwise is fake/lies/economic convenience. "Salvation is purity""
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"It's quite a simple song, both musically and lyrically. It's kind of like the Buddhist thing where you can only reach eternal peace by shedding every desire in your body. I think the last line, 'Nature's lukewarm pleasure', is Richey's view on sex. I can't really explain it, but that's the way he sees it."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
Beauty finds refuge in herself
lovers wrapped inside each others lies
beauty is such a terrible thing
she is suffering yet more than death
美丽在她自己体内寻找依靠
爱人们彼此用谎言伪装,填补空虚
美丽是件如此可怕的事情
她承受着比死亡还要多的苦难
she is suffering
she sucks you deeper in
she is suffering
you exist within her shadow
她在受难
她使你深陷其中
她在受难
你永存于她的阴影之中
无法逃离
beauty she is scarred into man's soul
a flower attracting lust, vice and sin
a vine that can strangle life from a tree
carrion, surrounding, picking on leaves
美丽在男人灵魂中留下创伤
一朵吸引情欲,堕落,原罪的诱人花朵
一株可以扼死一棵树的曼妙藤蔓
那些腐食性生物围绕着,挑选着叶子
she is suffering
she sucks you deeper in
she is suffering
you exist within her shadow
她在受难
她使你深陷其中
她在受难
你无法逃离她的阴影
beauty she poisons unfaithful all
stifled, her touch is leprous and pale
the less she gives the more you need her
no thoughts to forget when we were children
美丽她毒害了所有的不忠
她的触碰迷乱苍白,令人窒息
她给予的越少你渴求的越多
当我们都是孩子的时候
从未想过要遗忘什么
she is suffering
she sucks you deeper in
she is suffering
nature's lukewarm pleasure.
她在受难
她使你无法自拔
她在受难
与生俱来的冷淡的欢愉
Archive Of Pain
LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES: "Bentham's 'Panopticon' - visibility is a trap.Foucault - Savagery is necessary.
Is revenge justified? Nothing in common with Manson or Dahmer cult and its current fashionability. There is no glory in innocent death. Death/Murder/Redemption part of the human condition."
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"That was the song that me and Richey worried about the most, and did the most work on. It was written as a reaction to the glorification of serial killers. In 'Silence of the Lambs', Hannibal Lecter is made in to a hero in the last scene of the film - people feel sorry for them. It's like that line from Therapy? 'Now I Know How Jeffrey Dahmer Feels' ('Trigger Inside' - Troublegum). I don't fucking want to know how Jeffrey Dahmer feels, and I think it's quite appalling to put yourself in that position. Everyone gets a self-destructive urge the urge to kill, but I don't particularly like the glorification of it. There's a book by Marcel Foucault with a chapter called 'Archives Of Pain'. Richey and I did that book at university, and it had quite an influence on us. It talks about the punishment matching the crime. But the song isn't a right-wing statement, it's just against this fascination with people who kill. A lot of people don't like to see rapists getting off with a ￡25 fine.
That line: 'Kill Yeltsin, who's saying?' - well, Yeltsin is a figure of hate to us. A person who's basically an alcoholic... that's a personal, petty manics thing."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
intro:"I wonder who you think you are , You damn well think you're God or something , God give life, God taketh it away, not you , I think you are the Devil itself"
“我想知道你以为你是谁,你他妈可能觉得你是上帝或什么的,上帝给予我们生命上帝取走他们而不是你,我觉得你就是恶魔的化身.”
If hospitals cure
Then prisons must bring their pain
Don't be ashamed to slaughte
The centre of humanity is cruelty
如果医院能够治愈
那么监狱应该带来他们的痛苦
不要因为屠杀而羞耻
人性的中心就是残忍
There is never redemption
Any fool can regret yesterday
Nail it to the House of Lords
You will be buried in the same box
As a killer
从来就没什么救赎
任何一个傻瓜都可以后悔昨天的所作所为
把它钉在上议院[1]
你就会如同一个杀手一样
被埋在同一个盒子里
A drained white body hangs from the gallows
Is more righteous than Hindley's crotchet lectures
Pain not penance, forget martyrs, remember victims
The weak die young and right now
We crouch to make them strong
一具榨干的白色尸体挂在绞刑架上
这难道就比Hindley[2]的胡言乱语更为公正吗
痛苦不意味着悔过,忘记那些烈士,记住那些受害者
弱者年轻的死去而现在
我们卑躬屈膝使他们强大
Kill Yeltsin, who's saying, Zhirinovsky, Le Pen,
Hindley and Brady, Ireland, Allit, Sutcliffe,
Dahmer, Nielson, Yoshinori Ueda,
Blanche and Pickles, Amin, Milosevic
杀死叶利钦,谁在那样说,Zhirinovsky[3], Le Pen[4],
Hindley and Brady[2], Ireland[5], Allit[6], Sutcliffe[7],
Dahmer[8], Nielson[9], Yoshinori Ueda[10],
Blanche[11] and Pickles[12], Amin[13], Milosevic[14]
Give them respect they deserve
I give them the respect they deserve
I give them the respect they deserve
I Give them the respect they deserve
给他们应有的尊重
我给他们应有的尊重
Execution needed
A bloody vessel for your peace
If man makes death death makes man
Tear the torso with horses and chains
死刑是必须的
一条通往和平的血腥管道
如果人制造了死亡那么死亡也造就了人
将躯干用马和锁链撕裂
Killers view themselves like they view the world
They pick at the holes
Not punish less, rise the pain
Sterilise rapists, all I preach is extinction
杀手看待他们自己就如同他们看待这个世界
他们挑选着坟墓
不要减少惩罚,加重痛苦
阉了强奸犯,我的所有宣讲都被消灭
Kill Yeltsin, who's saying, Zhirinovsky, Le Pen,
Hindley and Brady, Ireland, Allit, Sutcliffe,
Dahmer, Nielson, Yoshinori Ueda,
Blanche and Pickles, Amin, Manic Street Preachers
Give them respect they deserve
I give them the respect they deserve
I give them the respect they deserve
I give them the respect they D.E.S.E.R.V.E

4st 7lb[1]
LYRICS: Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES: "Vanity/innocence/anorexia - True or False.Finding your own self worth and admiring yourself for it, whatever that involves. Kate (Moss), Kristin (McMenamy), Emma (Balfour), Karen (Sky Agony Aunt)."
(Richey James; The Holy Bible-Tour Book)
"Every word of that is Richey's, and it's pretty autobiographical. I think that when he was admitted to hospital, he was down to about six stones, which, for a five-foot-eight 25 year old, is pretty grim. There's been a lot of media coverage of anorexia lately, and I think for a lot of people it's like the final act of selfcontrol. Nothing can alter your course; you've got to keep control of what you're doing. But of course it's like a slow death. Any assosiation with self-abuse and self-control is quite romantic in a naive sort of way, but obviously, the reality of anorexia is much worse than the idea."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker, 27 August 1994)
intro
"I eat too much to die, And not enough to stay alive, I'm sitting in the middle waiting"
"我吃的太多不至于死去,却又不足以让我活着,我就被卡在中间等待着."
Days since I last pissed
Cheeks sunken and despaired
So gorgeous sunk to six stone
Lose my only remaining home
距离我上一次排泄过去了很多天
我脸颊深陷并且绝望
太好了我瘦到了只剩下六石
失去了我唯一剩下的家
See my third rib appear
A week later all my flesh disappears
Stretching taut, cling-film on bone
I'm getting better
我的第三根肋骨浮现出来
一个星期后我的肉全都消失
皮肤紧绷在骨头上,像一层薄膜
我正感觉不错
Karen says I've reached my target weight
Kate and Emma and Kristin know it's fake
Problem is diet's not a big enough word
I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view
Karen[2]说我已经到达了目标体重
Kate,Emma还有Kristin[2]知道这是假象
问题是减肥并不是件大事
我想要瘦到从外表看就像是腐烂一样
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprin
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
我想要走在雪上
却不留下一点脚印
我想要走在雪上
却不玷污它的纯洁
Stomach collapsed at five
Lift up my skirt my sex is gone
Naked and lovely and 5 stone 2
May I bud and never flower
胃在五石的时候崩溃
掀起我的短裙我的性征已经消失
五石二裸露着的我如此可爱
我可以发芽但是永不开花吗
My vision's getting blurred
But I can see my ribs and I feel fine
My hands are trembling stalks
And I can feel my breasts are sinking
我的视线开始模糊
但是只要看得见我的肋骨我就觉得安心
我的双手如同颤抖的花茎
我可以感觉我的胸部正在下沉
Mother tries to choke me with roast beef
And sits savouring her sole Ryvitta[3]
That's the way you're built my father said
But I can change my cocoon shedding
妈妈试图将我塞满烤牛肉
让我坐下品尝她独家的甜点
我爸说那才是你本来该有的样子
但是我可以改变,我正破茧成蝶
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
Kate and Kristin and Kit Kat
All things I like looking at
Too weak to fuss, too weak to die
Choice is skeletal in everybody's life
Kate,Kristin和Kit Kat巧克力
全都是我喜欢看着的东西
太虚弱而不能烦恼,太虚弱而不能去死
在每个人的人生里选择也都骨瘦如柴
I choose my choice, I starve to frenzy
Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires
Legs bend, stockinged I am Twiggy
And I don't mind the horror that surrounds me
我选择了我的选择,我瘦到发疯
饥饿很快消失,恶心很快疲倦
穿着长筒袜的双腿弯曲,我就像TWIGGY一样[4]
我不在意那些围绕我的恐怖
Self-worth scatters, self-esteem's a bore
I long since moved to a higher plateau
This discipline's so rare so please applaud
Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so
自我价值散乱,自尊是个无聊的东西
我早就搬到了一个更高的高原上
这是个如此稀少的训练所以请为我鼓掌吧
只要看看那些纵容我这样的肥胖人渣
Yeah 4 stone 7, an epilogue of youth
Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
I've finally come to understand life
Through staring blankly at my navel
好的,四石七,一段青春的尾声
自虐也可以如此美丽庄严
我终于理解了人生
通过茫然的盯着我的肚脐

LYRICS:Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC:James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:"Strength through weakness. All morality sown in the soil of the ruling caste. Self-abuse is anti-social, aggression still natural. Society speeding up - finds worth is failure."
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"Frankly, a lot of it is all Richey again, and I was always completely confused by it. But when he wrote it he told me it was about self-abuse. The opening line is: 'I am an architect/they call me a butcher' - and of course, he's been carving into his arm and all that... I think it's the most confusing song on the album. I added some stuff about the regurgitation of twentieth century culture, and the way that everything's speeded up to such an extent that nobody knows if they've got any meaning any more. It's probably the first time that we've written a song and not completely understood what we've written."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
intro:
"I hate purity, I hate goodness . I don't want virtue to exist anywhere . I want everyone corrupt."
"我恨纯洁,我恨善良.我不想这世上存在道德.我想要每个人都腐烂."
I am an architect, they call me a butcher
I am a pioneer, they call me primitive
I am purity, they call me perverted
Holding you but I only miss these things when they leave
我是个建筑师,他们却称我为屠夫
我是个先驱者,他们却称我为原始人
我是纯净的,他们却认为我是堕落的
抱着你但我却想念这那些过往的事
I am idiot drug hive, the virgin, the tattered and the torn
Life is for the cold made warm and they are just lizards
Self-disgust is self-obsession honey and I do as I please
A morality obedient only to the cleansed repented
我是白痴毒瘤,是处女,衣衫破旧,破碎不堪
人生就是从冰冷处制造温暖而那些人都是冷血动物
自我厌恶就是自我迷恋,宝贝我依照我的喜好做事
道德只服从于清洗干净的忏悔
I am stronger than Mensa[1], Miller[2] and Mailer[3]
I spat out Plath[4] and Pinter[5]
I am all the things that you regret
A truth that washes that learnt how to spell
我比Mensa, Miller和Mailer都要强大
我唾弃Plath和Pinter
我是你所后悔的所有事
洗净真相来学习如何拼写
The first time you see yourself naked you cry
Soft skin now acne, foul breath, so broken
He loves me truly this mute solitude I'm draining
I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing
当你第一次看见你的裸体你哭泣
柔软的皮肤现在都是粉刺,难闻的呼吸,如此破碎
他真心的爱我,当我排尽了静默的孤独
我知道我什么都不相信,但这正是我的虚无主义
Sleep can't hide the thoughts splitting through my mind
Shadows aren't clean, false mirrors, too many people awake
If you stand up like a nail then you will be knocked down
I've been too honest with myself
I should have lied like everybody else
睡眠不能隐藏我头脑中爆裂的思想
阴影不干净,镜子反映虚假,太多的人是清醒的
如果你像一个钉子般得站出来你就会被击倒
我总是对我太诚实我应该向别人一样撒谎
I am stronger than Mensa, Miller and Mailer
I spat out Plath and Pinter
I am all the things that you regret
A truth that washes that learnt how to spell
So damn easy to cave in, man kills everything
So damn easy to cave in, man kills everything...
屈服他妈的就这么容易,人类杀死了一切

Die In the Summertime
LYRICS:Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:"Condition of old age - youth always remembered fondly. OAP wants to die with favourite memory month in mind. Adult memories tawdry, of little value."
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"Again, it's all Richey's, and there's lots of disturbing images: 'Scratch my leg with a rusty nail/sadly it heals.../a tiny animal curled into a quarter circle'. It was one of the first songs we wrote for the album, and I found it pretty disturbing when Richey first showed it to me. Now, of course, it's even more so, and I think this and '4st7lbs' are pretty obviously about Richey's state of mind, which I didn't quite realise at the time. Even if you're quite close to someone, you always try to deny thoughts like that."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
Scratch my leg with a rusty nail, sadly it heals
Colour my hair but the dye grows out
I can't seem to stay a fixed ideal
用一枚生锈的铁钉划我的腿,悲伤的是它还是会愈合
将我的头发染色但是颜料很快就褪掉
我好像不能保持一个固定的理想
Childhood pictures redeem, clean and so serene
See myself without ruining lines
Whole days throwing sticks into streams
找回童年的影像,纯净而安详
洞悉自我却不用破坏界限
每天只是往小河里丢棍子
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime, I wanna die
我向旁边爬了这么远
我意识到万物的痕迹如此暗淡
我想死,死在夏天,我想死去
The hole in my life even stains the soil
My heart shrinks to barely a pulse
A tiny animal curled into a quarter circle
If you really care wash the feet of a beggar
我生命的缺口甚至弄脏了泥土
我心脏收缩得几乎不能跳动
一个渺小的动物蜷曲成一个四分之一的圆
如果你真的在意,给乞丐洗脚吧
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime, I wanna die
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creatio
I wanna die, die in the summertime, I wanna die
The Intense Humming Of Evil
LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:The Intense Humming Of Evil"/"Mausoleum:
"Brother/sister songs. Visited Dachau and Hiroshima. What reflections should be for everyone. Otherwise we're all Edward Scissorhands Avon Lady. Winners dictate history. Holocaust one of the few examples where even truth is being questioned. Revisionist historians. Danger of Schindler's List - Portrayal of merely flawed man. Never question our own past - myth of Churchill. "An individual death means little - millions must mean something?"
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
Mausoleum/The Intense Humming of Evil:
These two can be twinned together, because they were both inspired in the same way. Last year we visited Dachau, Belsen and the peace museum in Hiroshima, and those three places had quite an intense influence on us, and on the whole album. Dachau is such an evil, quiet place. There's no grass, and you don't even see a worm, let alone any birds. all you can hear is this humming of nothing. In the museum at Belsen, there's the original sign which hung there. It says, 'Welcome to Belsen Recreation Camp'. It's the same with the peace museum in Hiroshima. When you're young, you're brought up to think that the americans dropped the bomb because they had to end the war, and loads of Americans would have been killed otherwise. But when you go there and see the pictures of the whole city completely flattened, and the black rain, and all the people who died from the secondary effects... If anyone goes to those places and doesn't feel an immense sense of loss, they've got no soul. The lines: 'Churchill no different/wished the workers bled to a machine' are about how Britain always thinks that it has a superior attitude. But as soon as the war was over, the attitude was: 'Let's get back to normal and exploit as many people as we can again. Keep the proles happy, tie them to their machines, and send them out to war again to be killed when we need to'.
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
intro
"The court has come. The court of the Nations and into the courtroom will come the martyrs of Majdanek and Oswiecim. From the ditch of Kerch the dead will rise, they will arise from the graves, they will arise from flames bringing with them the acrid smoke and the deathly odour of scorched and martyred europe. And the children they too will come, stern and merciless. The butchers had no pity on them. Today tvictims will judge the butchers. Today the tear of the child is the judge, the grief of the mother is the prosecutor."
"法庭已经来了.那是国家的法庭,进入法庭的将是马伊达内克和奥斯维辛[1]的烈士们.从刻赤海峡里死者将升起,他们将从坟墓里升起,他们将从火焰里升起,伴随他们而来的将是刺鼻的烟雾,烧焦的致命气味和流血受难的欧洲.而孩子们,他们也将会到来,严肃并且无情.屠夫们对他们毫无怜悯.现在,受害者们将审判屠夫.现在,孩子的眼泪就是法官,母亲的悲痛就是原告."
You were what you were
Clean cut and unbecoming
Recreation for the masses
You always mistook fists for flowers
你停留在了过去
整齐的切口,不合时宜
民众的消遣方式
你总是将拳头误认为鲜花
Welcome welcome
Soldier smiling
Funeral march for agony's last edge

Lives that wouldn't have changed a thing
Never counted, never mattered, never be
六百万尖叫的灵魂
可能令人沉痛悲伤,可能根本什么都不是
那些什么都不能改变的生命
从来没有细数,从来没什么关系.从来没有存在
Arbeit macht frei
Transport of invalids
Hartheim Castle breathes us in
In block 5 we worship malaria
Lagerstrasse, poplar trees
Beauty lost, dignity gone
Rascher surveys us butcher bacteria
劳动带来自由[2]
将病弱者运走
哈特海姆城堡[3]将我们吸入
在第五区[4]我们崇拜着疟疾
集中营的街道[5],白杨树
美丽已失去,尊严已消失
Rascher[6]研究着我们致命的细菌
Welcome welcome
soldier smiling
Soon infected, nails broken, hunger's a word
欢迎欢迎
士兵在微笑
很快会被感染,钉子会破碎,饥饿就不再是什么了

Maybe misery, maybe nothing at all
Lives that wouldn't have changed a thing
Never counted, never mattered, never be
Drink it away, every tear is false
Churchill no different
Wished the workers bled to a machine
酗酒来逃避这些吧,每一滴眼泪都是虚伪的
丘吉尔也没什么不同
希望工人在机器上耗尽血汗
[1]Majdanek and Oswiecim:马伊达内克和奥斯维辛是二战时期纳粹设立的最著名的两个集中营.成千上万的人在此送命.
[2]Arbeit macht frei:德语,是挂在奥斯维辛门口的标识.集中营的总指挥Rudolf Hoss将它挂在那里,他原本的意图不是取笑,甚至也不是给予受害者虚假的许愿,只要努力工作就会被释放,而是一种宣言,意味着以无尽的劳作为形式的自我牺牲可以带来一种精神自由.

QUOTES:
"Prostitution of The Self. The majority of your time is spent doing something you hate to get something you don't need. Everyone has a price to buy themselves out of freedom. "Say Yes to Everything""
(Richey James; The Holy Bible-Tour Book)
"It looks at the way that society views prostitutes as probably the lowest form of life. But we feel that we've prostituted ourselves over the last three or four years, and we think it's the same in every walk of life.
Marlene Dietrich said that she'd been photographed to death. Red indians believe that every time they're photographed, a piece of their soul goes. We came to a point when we felt a bit like that. I don't want to come across like Eddie Vedder or something, because we've always made an effort to make our pictures fairly aesthetic. But you just come to a point where you think, 'Why are we doing this?' it must come with maturity.
There's a line in there: 'tie his hair in bunches, fuck him, call him Rita if you want'. You do get to a position when you're in a band where you can virtually do anything you want, in any kind of sick, low form. It's not something we've particularly indulged in, but it is a nasty by-product of being in a group."\
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker, 27 August 1994)
intro
"You can buy her, you can buy her, this one's here, this one's here, this one's here, and this one's here. Everything's for sale"
你可以买她,这边的一个或是那边的一个,所有的东西都待售
For sale? dumb cunt's same dumb questions
virgin? listen, all virgins are liars honey
and I don't know what I'm scared of or what I even enjoy
dulling, get money, but nothing turns out like you want it to
出来卖的吗? 那些蠢货总是问着同样的蠢问题
是处的吗? 听好了,所有的处都是说谎的甜心
我不知道我害怕着什么,我甚至不知道我享受着什么
我只是麻木的拿着钱,但这一切都不是我想要的
and in these plagued streets of pity you can buy anything
for $200 anyone can conceive a God on video
he's a boy, you want a girl so tear off his cock
tie his hair in bunches, fuck him, call him Rita if you want
在这些病态的怜悯之街上你可以买到任何东西
只要两百块每个人都可以在录像里扮演上帝 [1]
他是个男孩但是如果你想要个女孩的话不妨阉了他
如果你想的话,把他的头发扎成辫子,操了他,叫他Rita
I eat and I dress and I wash and I still can say thank you
puking - shaking - sinking I still stand for old ladies
can't shout, can't scream, hurt myself to get pain out
我为我拥有的食物衣服感恩戴德
即使呕吐颤抖堕落,我依旧为那些老女人服务
不能大喊,不能尖叫,伤害我自己以释放痛苦
I 'T' them, 24:7, all year long
purgatory's circle, drowning here, someone will always say yes
funny place for the social, for the insects to start caring
just an ambulance at the bottom of a cliff
我一天24小时全年无休的接客
炼狱一般的循环,一旦沉沦,你就会一直顺从
有趣的的社交地方,卑贱的虫子在这里也会得到照顾
就像是悬崖底部的一辆救护车 [2]
in these plagued streets of pity you can buy anything

he's a boy, you want a girl so tear off his cock

I eat and I dress and I wash and I can still say thank you
puking - shaking - sinking I still stand for old ladies
can't shout, can't scream, hurt myself to get pain out
power produces desire, the weak have none
there's no lust in this coma even for a fifty
solitude, solitude, the 11th commandment
强者拥有着欲望,而弱者无权享有
在这场漫长的昏迷中不存在任何情欲
孤独啊孤独,第十一条戒律[3]
the only certain thing that is left about me
there's no part of my body that has not been used
pity or pain, to show displeasure's shame
everyone I've loved or hated always seems to leave
最终我能唯一确定的关于我的事
就是我身上的没有哪个地方没被用过
怜悯或痛苦,表现的都是不愉快的羞耻
我爱过或恨过的每一个人都会离开
and in these plagued streets of pity you can buy anything

don't hurt, just obey, lie down, do as they say
may as well be heaven this hell, smells the same
these sunless afternoons I can't find myself.
不要自我伤害,只要顺从就好,照他们说的躺下
这个地狱也会像天堂一样,至少闻起来
在这些没有太阳的下午,我找不到自我

[2]:just an ambulance at the bottom of a cliff,据说次句引用了一个真实故事,在有小孩失足掉落悬崖的时候,政府采取的措施不是在悬崖处设立保护网而是在悬崖下面停一辆救护车,为了节省费用.此句意为讽刺病态的社会.

Of Walking Abortion
LYRICS:Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC:James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:"There is little hope..." East European truths - Horthy + Tisu (anti-Semitic/Fascist) - revived and brought back home. Facts ignored. Carve your mortal certainty there. Should we have been born/still born/walking sideways unable to make a decision of any consequence. Modern life makes thought an embarrassment. Your true reflection = Junkies, winos, whores. Who's responsible?"
(Richey James; The Holy Bible-Tour Book)
"There's a line: 'Horthy's corpse screened to a million'. Horthy was a hungarian fascist military dictator before the Second World War, and the devotion that a fascist dictator can achieve just shows such a terrible flaw in human nature. There's always a chance that it'll be revived, because there's a worm in human nature that makes us want to be dominated."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker, 27 August 1994)
intro:"I knew that some day I was gonna die, and I knew before I died, that two things would happen to me: that, number one, I would regret my entire life, and that, number two, I would want to live my life over again."
我知道有一天我将死去,我知道在我死之前会发生两件事,一是,我会后悔我的整整一生,二是,
我会希望将我的生命从头来一遍.
Life is lead weights, pendulum died
Pure or lost, spectator or crucified
Recognised truth acedia's blackest hole
Junkies winos whores the nation's moral suicide
生命是最沉重的砝码,它让钟摆停止
纯净或是迷失,围观者或是殉难者
公认的真相是懒惰的最黑暗的洞穴
毒瘾者,酒鬼,娼妓,这个国家的道德自杀
Loser, liar, fake or phoney
No one care
Everyone is guilty
Fucked up, dunno why
You poor little boy
失败者,说谎者,虚伪的人或是骗子
没有人在意
每个人都有罪
搞砸了还不知道为什么
你这可怜的小男孩
We are all of walking abortion
Shalom[1] shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
我们都是行走的畸形儿[1]
你好,你好,我们都爱我们的孩子
我们都是行走的畸形儿
你好,你好,不存在什么地平线
Mussolini hangs from a butcher's hook
Hitler reprised in the worm of your soul
Horthy's corpse screened to a million
Tiso revived, the horror of a bullfight
屠夫的钩子上挂着墨索里尼
你灵魂中的蛆虫孕育着希特勒
霍尔蒂[3]的尸体遮住了百万生命
季索[4]再生,带来了斗牛般的恐怖
Fragments of uniforms
Open black ruins
A moral conscience
You've no wounds to show
So wash your car
In your X baseball shoes
制服的碎片
广大的黑色废墟
一个道德的良知
你没有伤口可以展示
所以穿着你X号的棒球鞋
洗你的车去吧
We are all of walking abortions
Shalom shalom we all love our children
We all are of walking abortions
Shalom shalom there are no horizons
Little people in little houses
Like maggots small blind and worthless
The massacred innocent blood stains us all
渺小的人住在狭小的房子里
像是蛆虫一般弱小盲目毫无价值
大屠杀流下的无辜鲜血玷污了我们所有人
Who's responsible, you fucking are
Who's responsible, you fucking are...
谁该负责,他妈的就是你们.

She Is Suffering
LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES: "'She' is desire. In other Bibles and Holy Books no truth is possible until you empty yourself of desire. All commitment otherwise is fake/lies/economic convenience. "Salvation is purity""
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"It's quite a simple song, both musically and lyrically. It's kind of like the Buddhist thing where you can only reach eternal peace by shedding every desire in your body. I think the last line, 'Nature's lukewarm pleasure', is Richey's view on sex. I can't really explain it, but that's the way he sees it."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
Beauty finds refuge in herself
lovers wrapped inside each others lies
beauty is such a terrible thing
she is suffering yet more than death
美丽在她自己体内寻找依靠
爱人们彼此用谎言伪装,填补空虚
美丽是件如此可怕的事情
她承受着比死亡还要多的苦难
she is suffering
she sucks you deeper in
she is suffering
you exist within her shadow
她在受难
她使你深陷其中
她在受难
你永存于她的阴影之中
无法逃离
beauty she is scarred into man's soul
a flower attracting lust, vice and sin
a vine that can strangle life from a tree
carrion, surrounding, picking on leaves
美丽在男人灵魂中留下创伤
一朵吸引情欲,堕落,原罪的诱人花朵
一株可以扼死一棵树的曼妙藤蔓
那些腐食性生物围绕着,挑选着叶子
she is suffering
she sucks you deeper in
she is suffering
you exist within her shadow
她在受难
她使你深陷其中
她在受难
你无法逃离她的阴影
beauty she poisons unfaithful all
stifled, her touch is leprous and pale
the less she gives the more you need her
no thoughts to forget when we were children
美丽她毒害了所有的不忠
她的触碰迷乱苍白,令人窒息
她给予的越少你渴求的越多
当我们都是孩子的时候
从未想过要遗忘什么
she is suffering
she sucks you deeper in
she is suffering
nature's lukewarm pleasure.
她在受难
她使你无法自拔
她在受难
与生俱来的冷淡的欢愉
Archive Of Pain
LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES: "Bentham's 'Panopticon' - visibility is a trap.Foucault - Savagery is necessary.
Is revenge justified? Nothing in common with Manson or Dahmer cult and its current fashionability. There is no glory in innocent death. Death/Murder/Redemption part of the human condition."
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"That was the song that me and Richey worried about the most, and did the most work on. It was written as a reaction to the glorification of serial killers. In 'Silence of the Lambs', Hannibal Lecter is made in to a hero in the last scene of the film - people feel sorry for them. It's like that line from Therapy? 'Now I Know How Jeffrey Dahmer Feels' ('Trigger Inside' - Troublegum). I don't fucking want to know how Jeffrey Dahmer feels, and I think it's quite appalling to put yourself in that position. Everyone gets a self-destructive urge the urge to kill, but I don't particularly like the glorification of it. There's a book by Marcel Foucault with a chapter called 'Archives Of Pain'. Richey and I did that book at university, and it had quite an influence on us. It talks about the punishment matching the crime. But the song isn't a right-wing statement, it's just against this fascination with people who kill. A lot of people don't like to see rapists getting off with a ￡25 fine.
That line: 'Kill Yeltsin, who's saying?' - well, Yeltsin is a figure of hate to us. A person who's basically an alcoholic... that's a personal, petty manics thing."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
intro:"I wonder who you think you are , You damn well think you're God or something , God give life, God taketh it away, not you , I think you are the Devil itself"
“我想知道你以为你是谁,你他妈可能觉得你是上帝或什么的,上帝给予我们生命上帝取走他们而不是你,我觉得你就是恶魔的化身.”
If hospitals cure
Then prisons must bring their pain
Don't be ashamed to slaughte
The centre of humanity is cruelty
如果医院能够治愈
那么监狱应该带来他们的痛苦
不要因为屠杀而羞耻
人性的中心就是残忍
There is never redemption
Any fool can regret yesterday
Nail it to the House of Lords
You will be buried in the same box
As a killer
从来就没什么救赎
任何一个傻瓜都可以后悔昨天的所作所为
把它钉在上议院[1]
你就会如同一个杀手一样
被埋在同一个盒子里
A drained white body hangs from the gallows
Is more righteous than Hindley's crotchet lectures
Pain not penance, forget martyrs, remember victims
The weak die young and right now
We crouch to make them strong
一具榨干的白色尸体挂在绞刑架上
这难道就比Hindley[2]的胡言乱语更为公正吗
痛苦不意味着悔过,忘记那些烈士,记住那些受害者
弱者年轻的死去而现在
我们卑躬屈膝使他们强大
Kill Yeltsin, who's saying, Zhirinovsky, Le Pen,
Hindley and Brady, Ireland, Allit, Sutcliffe,
Dahmer, Nielson, Yoshinori Ueda,
Blanche and Pickles, Amin, Milosevic

Give them respect they deserve
I give them the respect they deserve
I give them the respect they deserve
I Give them the respect they deserve
给他们应有的尊重
我给他们应有的尊重
Execution needed
A bloody vessel for your peace
If man makes death death makes man
Tear the torso with horses and chains
死刑是必须的
一条通往和平的血腥管道
如果人制造了死亡那么死亡也造就了人
将躯干用马和锁链撕裂
Killers view themselves like they view the world
They pick at the holes
Not punish less, rise the pain
Sterilise rapists, all I preach is extinction
杀手看待他们自己就如同他们看待这个世界
他们挑选着坟墓
不要减少惩罚,加重痛苦
阉了强奸犯,我的所有宣讲都被消灭
Kill Yeltsin, who's saying, Zhirinovsky, Le Pen,
Hindley and Brady, Ireland, Allit, Sutcliffe,

LYRICS: Richey James

QUOTES: "Vanity/innocence/anorexia - True or False.Finding your own self worth and admiring yourself for it, whatever that involves. Kate (Moss), Kristin (McMenamy), Emma (Balfour), Karen (Sky Agony Aunt)."
(Richey James; The Holy Bible-Tour Book)
"Every word of that is Richey's, and it's pretty autobiographical. I think that when he was admitted to hospital, he was down to about six stones, which, for a five-foot-eight 25 year old, is pretty grim. There's been a lot of media coverage of anorexia lately, and I think for a lot of people it's like the final act of selfcontrol. Nothing can alter your course; you've got to keep control of what you're doing. But of course it's like a slow death. Any assosiation with self-abuse and self-control is quite romantic in a naive sort of way, but obviously, the reality of anorexia is much worse than the idea."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker, 27 August 1994)
intro
"I eat too much to die, And not enough to stay alive, I'm sitting in the middle waiting"
"我吃的太多不至于死去,却又不足以让我活着,我就被卡在中间等待着."
Days since I last pissed
Cheeks sunken and despaired
So gorgeous sunk to six stone
Lose my only remaining home
距离我上一次排泄过去了很多天
我脸颊深陷并且绝望
太好了我瘦到了只剩下六石
失去了我唯一剩下的家
See my third rib appear
A week later all my flesh disappears
Stretching taut, cling-film on bone
I'm getting better
我的第三根肋骨浮现出来
一个星期后我的肉全都消失
皮肤紧绷在骨头上,像一层薄膜
我正感觉不错
Karen says I've reached my target weight
Kate and Emma and Kristin know it's fake
Problem is diet's not a big enough word
I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view
Karen[2]说我已经到达了目标体重
Kate,Emma还有Kristin[2]知道这是假象
问题是减肥并不是件大事
我想要瘦到从外表看就像是腐烂一样
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprin
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
我想要走在雪上
却不留下一点脚印
我想要走在雪上
却不玷污它的纯洁
Stomach collapsed at five
Lift up my skirt my sex is gone
Naked and lovely and 5 stone 2
May I bud and never flower
胃在五石的时候崩溃
掀起我的短裙我的性征已经消失
五石二裸露着的我如此可爱
我可以发芽但是永不开花吗
My vision's getting blurred
But I can see my ribs and I feel fine
My hands are trembling stalks
And I can feel my breasts are sinking
我的视线开始模糊
但是只要看得见我的肋骨我就觉得安心
我的双手如同颤抖的花茎
我可以感觉我的胸部正在下沉
Mother tries to choke me with roast beef
And sits savouring her sole Ryvitta[3]
That's the way you're built my father said
But I can change my cocoon shedding
妈妈试图将我塞满烤牛肉
让我坐下品尝她独家的甜点
我爸说那才是你本来该有的样子
但是我可以改变,我正破茧成蝶
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
Kate and Kristin and Kit Kat
All things I like looking at
Too weak to fuss, too weak to die
Choice is skeletal in everybody's life
Kate,Kristin和Kit Kat巧克力
全都是我喜欢看着的东西
太虚弱而不能烦恼,太虚弱而不能去死
在每个人的人生里选择也都骨瘦如柴
I choose my choice, I starve to frenzy
Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires
Legs bend, stockinged I am Twiggy
And I don't mind the horror that surrounds me
我选择了我的选择,我瘦到发疯
饥饿很快消失,恶心很快疲倦
穿着长筒袜的双腿弯曲,我就像TWIGGY一样[4]
我不在意那些围绕我的恐怖
Self-worth scatters, self-esteem's a bore
I long since moved to a higher plateau
This discipline's so rare so please applaud
Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so
自我价值散乱,自尊是个无聊的东西
我早就搬到了一个更高的高原上
这是个如此稀少的训练所以请为我鼓掌吧
只要看看那些纵容我这样的肥胖人渣
Yeah 4 stone 7, an epilogue of youth
Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
I've finally come to understand life
Through staring blankly at my navel
好的,四石七,一段青春的尾声
自虐也可以如此美丽庄严
我终于理解了人生
通过茫然的盯着我的肚脐

LYRICS:Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC:James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:"Strength through weakness. All morality sown in the soil of the ruling caste. Self-abuse is anti-social, aggression still natural. Society speeding up - finds worth is failure."
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"Frankly, a lot of it is all Richey again, and I was always completely confused by it. But when he wrote it he told me it was about self-abuse. The opening line is: 'I am an architect/they call me a butcher' - and of course, he's been carving into his arm and all that... I think it's the most confusing song on the album. I added some stuff about the regurgitation of twentieth century culture, and the way that everything's speeded up to such an extent that nobody knows if they've got any meaning any more. It's probably the first time that we've written a song and not completely understood what we've written."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
intro:
"I hate purity, I hate goodness . I don't want virtue to exist anywhere . I want everyone corrupt."
"我恨纯洁,我恨善良.我不想这世上存在道德.我想要每个人都腐烂."
I am an architect, they call me a butcher
I am a pioneer, they call me primitive
I am purity, they call me perverted
Holding you but I only miss these things when they leave
我是个建筑师,他们却称我为屠夫
我是个先驱者,他们却称我为原始人
我是纯净的,他们却认为我是堕落的
抱着你但我却想念这那些过往的事
I am idiot drug hive, the virgin, the tattered and the torn
Life is for the cold made warm and they are just lizards
Self-disgust is self-obsession honey and I do as I please
A morality obedient only to the cleansed repented
我是白痴毒瘤,是处女,衣衫破旧,破碎不堪
人生就是从冰冷处制造温暖而那些人都是冷血动物
自我厌恶就是自我迷恋,宝贝我依照我的喜好做事
道德只服从于清洗干净的忏悔
I am stronger than Mensa[1], Miller[2] and Mailer[3]
I spat out Plath[4] and Pinter[5]
I am all the things that you regret
A truth that washes that learnt how to spell
我比Mensa, Miller和Mailer都要强大
我唾弃Plath和Pinter
我是你所后悔的所有事
洗净真相来学习如何拼写
The first time you see yourself naked you cry
Soft skin now acne, foul breath, so broken
He loves me truly this mute solitude I'm draining
I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing
当你第一次看见你的裸体你哭泣
柔软的皮肤现在都是粉刺,难闻的呼吸,如此破碎
他真心的爱我,当我排尽了静默的孤独
我知道我什么都不相信,但这正是我的虚无主义
Sleep can't hide the thoughts splitting through my mind
Shadows aren't clean, false mirrors, too many people awake
If you stand up like a nail then you will be knocked down
I've been too honest with myself
I should have lied like everybody else
睡眠不能隐藏我头脑中爆裂的思想
阴影不干净,镜子反映虚假,太多的人是清醒的
如果你像一个钉子般得站出来你就会被击倒
我总是对我太诚实我应该向别人一样撒谎
I am stronger than Mensa, Miller and Mailer
I spat out Plath and Pinter
I am all the things that you regret
A truth that washes that learnt how to spell
So damn easy to cave in, man kills everything
So damn easy to cave in, man kills everything...
屈服他妈的就这么容易,人类杀死了一切

Die In the Summertime
LYRICS:Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:"Condition of old age - youth always remembered fondly. OAP wants to die with favourite memory month in mind. Adult memories tawdry, of little value."
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
"Again, it's all Richey's, and there's lots of disturbing images: 'Scratch my leg with a rusty nail/sadly it heals.../a tiny animal curled into a quarter circle'. It was one of the first songs we wrote for the album, and I found it pretty disturbing when Richey first showed it to me. Now, of course, it's even more so, and I think this and '4st7lbs' are pretty obviously about Richey's state of mind, which I didn't quite realise at the time. Even if you're quite close to someone, you always try to deny thoughts like that."
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
Scratch my leg with a rusty nail, sadly it heals
Colour my hair but the dye grows out
I can't seem to stay a fixed ideal
用一枚生锈的铁钉划我的腿,悲伤的是它还是会愈合
将我的头发染色但是颜料很快就褪掉
我好像不能保持一个固定的理想
Childhood pictures redeem, clean and so serene
See myself without ruining lines
Whole days throwing sticks into streams
找回童年的影像,纯净而安详
洞悉自我却不用破坏界限
每天只是往小河里丢棍子
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime, I wanna die
我向旁边爬了这么远
我意识到万物的痕迹如此暗淡
我想死,死在夏天,我想死去
The hole in my life even stains the soil
My heart shrinks to barely a pulse
A tiny animal curled into a quarter circle
If you really care wash the feet of a beggar
我生命的缺口甚至弄脏了泥土
我心脏收缩得几乎不能跳动
一个渺小的动物蜷曲成一个四分之一的圆
如果你真的在意,给乞丐洗脚吧
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creation
I wanna die, die in the summertime, I wanna die
I have crawled so far sideways
I recognise dim traces of creatio
I wanna die, die in the summertime, I wanna die
The Intense Humming Of Evil
LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James
MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore
QUOTES:The Intense Humming Of Evil"/"Mausoleum:
"Brother/sister songs. Visited Dachau and Hiroshima. What reflections should be for everyone. Otherwise we're all Edward Scissorhands Avon Lady. Winners dictate history. Holocaust one of the few examples where even truth is being questioned. Revisionist historians. Danger of Schindler's List - Portrayal of merely flawed man. Never question our own past - myth of Churchill. "An individual death means little - millions must mean something?"
(Richey James; THB Tourbook)
Mausoleum/The Intense Humming of Evil:
These two can be twinned together, because they were both inspired in the same way. Last year we visited Dachau, Belsen and the peace museum in Hiroshima, and those three places had quite an intense influence on us, and on the whole album. Dachau is such an evil, quiet place. There's no grass, and you don't even see a worm, let alone any birds. all you can hear is this humming of nothing. In the museum at Belsen, there's the original sign which hung there. It says, 'Welcome to Belsen Recreation Camp'. It's the same with the peace museum in Hiroshima. When you're young, you're brought up to think that the americans dropped the bomb because they had to end the war, and loads of Americans would have been killed otherwise. But when you go there and see the pictures of the whole city completely flattened, and the black rain, and all the people who died from the secondary effects... If anyone goes to those places and doesn't feel an immense sense of loss, they've got no soul. The lines: 'Churchill no different/wished the workers bled to a machine' are about how Britain always thinks that it has a superior attitude. But as soon as the war was over, the attitude was: 'Let's get back to normal and exploit as many people as we can again. Keep the proles happy, tie them to their machines, and send them out to war again to be killed when we need to'.
(Nicky Wire; Melody Maker 27.8.94)
intro
"The court has come. The court of the Nations and into the courtroom will come the martyrs of Majdanek and Oswiecim. From the ditch of Kerch the dead will rise, they will arise from the graves, they will arise from flames bringing with them the acrid smoke and the deathly odour of scorched and martyred europe. And the children they too will come, stern and merciless. The butchers had no pity on them. Today tvictims will judge the butchers. Today the tear of the child is the judge, the grief of the mother is the prosecutor."
"法庭已经来了.那是国家的法庭,进入法庭的将是马伊达内克和奥斯维辛[1]的烈士们.从刻赤海峡里死者将升起,他们将从坟墓里升起,他们将从火焰里升起,伴随他们而来的将是刺鼻的烟雾,烧焦的致命气味和流血受难的欧洲.而孩子们,他们也将会到来,严肃并且无情.屠夫们对他们毫无怜悯.现在,受害者们将审判屠夫.现在,孩子的眼泪就是法官,母亲的悲痛就是原告."
You were what you were
Clean cut and unbecoming
Recreation for the masses
You always mistook fists for flowers
你停留在了过去
整齐的切口,不合时宜
民众的消遣方式
你总是将拳头误认为鲜花
Welcome welcome
Soldier smiling
Funeral march for agony's last edge
欢迎欢迎
士兵在微笑
为苦痛的尽头而奏起的葬礼进行曲
6 million screaming souls
Maybe misery, maybe nothing at all
Lives that wouldn't have changed a thing
Never counted, never mattered, never be
六百万尖叫的灵魂
可能令人沉痛悲伤,可能根本什么都不是
那些什么都不能改变的生命
从来没有细数,从来没什么关系.从来没有存在
Arbeit macht frei
Transport of invalids
Hartheim Castle breathes us in
In block 5 we worship malaria
Lagerstrasse, poplar trees
Beauty lost, dignity gone
Rascher surveys us butcher bacteria
劳动带来自由[2]
将病弱者运走
哈特海姆城堡[3]将我们吸入
在第五区[4]我们崇拜着疟疾
集中营的街道[5],白杨树
美丽已失去,尊严已消失
Rascher[6]研究着我们致命的细菌
Welcome welcome
soldier smiling
Soon infected, nails broken, hunger's a word
欢迎欢迎
士兵在微笑
很快会被感染,钉子会破碎,饥饿就不再是什么了
6 million screaming souls
Maybe misery, maybe nothing at all
Lives that wouldn't have changed a thing
Never counted, never mattered, never be
Drink it away, every tear is false
Churchill no different
Wished the workers bled to a machine
酗酒来逃避这些吧,每一滴眼泪都是虚伪的
丘吉尔也没什么不同
希望工人在机器上耗尽血汗
