Wind-Up (Live 2004) - Jethro Tull
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
When I was young and they packed me off to school
年少时我被送往学堂
And they taught me how not to play the game
他们教我如何不按规则行事
I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
我不在乎被培养成所谓成功者
Or if they said that I was just a fool
或被贬为愚人也不以为意
So I left there in the morning with their God tucked underneath my arm -
清晨离去时 我将他们的神夹在臂弯——
Their half assed smiles and the book of rule
带着虚伪笑容与教条典籍
And I asked this God a question and by way of firm reply
我向这位神明发问 他斩钉截铁答道
He said I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays
"我并非周日才需上发条的玩偶"
So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares)
致我亲爱的老校长（以及所有关心的人）
Before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers
在结束前 请容我做个祷告
I don't believe you
我不相信你
You had the whole damn thing all wrong
你们全都大错特错
He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays
他并非周日才需要上发条的玩偶
Well you can excommunicate me on my way to Sunday school
尽管在我去主日学校路上将我除名吧
And have all the Bishops harmonise these lines
让所有主教为这些词句齐声和鸣
How do you dare to tell me that I'm my Father's son
你怎敢断言我是父亲的翻版
When that was just an accident of Birth
那不过是与生俱来的偶然
I'd rather look around me compose a better song
我宁愿环顾四周 谱写更美的乐章
'Cos that's the honest measure of my worth
因那才是我价值的真实衡量
In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me
你纵使富贵荣华 却比我更为贫瘠
As you lick the boots of death born out of fear
当你因恐惧而俯首舔舐死亡的靴履
When I was young and they packed me off to school
年少时我被送往学堂
And they taught me how not to play the game
他们教我如何不按规则行事
I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
我不在乎被培养成所谓成功者
Or if they said that I was just a fool
或被贬为愚人也不以为意
So I left there in the morning with their God tucked underneath my arm
清晨离去时 我将他们的上帝夹在臂弯
Their half assed smiles and the book of rules
带着虚伪笑容与那本教条之书
I don't believe you
我不相信你
You had the whole damn thing all wrong
你们全都大错特错
He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays
他并非周日才需要上发条的玩偶
