Lyrics and translation 謝安琪 - 烏托邦




烏托邦
Utopia
聽說有處 怪誕到極限 哄騙虜拐偷呃 獲豐足三餐
I heard there's a place so bizarre, it's beyond beliefWhere deception, theft, and flattery bring bountiful meals
處世太正派 會有大難 靠正宗真功夫被視作不懂得 轉彎
Being too righteous will bring great misfortuneUsing honest methods will make you seem naive and clueless
叩拜富貴 不休的戀棧 判斷正反忠奸 著重多少資產
Bow down to the wealthy, cling to them relentlesslyJudge right and wrong based on the size of their wallets
哪個較拮据會遭到待慢 越是有千億家財 越得到偏袒
Those who are less fortunate will be treated with disdainThe richer you are, the more you'll be favored
爭相要脫貧致富 個個也發難
Everyone's desperate to escape poverty, fighting tooth and nail
未習慣會漸漸慣 社會雖荒誕 起碼包裝燦爛
It's not easy at first, but you'll gradually get used to itThe society may be absurd, but at least it's packaged beautifully
大眾向利字進發 已閉起雙眼 不去分好與爛 腐化 被盛讚
Everyone's chasing after money, closing their eyesIgnoring what's good and bad, praising corruption
盼要富貴 多麼 的簡單
Longing for wealth is so simple
(放暗箭 出口術 投機 擦鞋搞關係
(Shoot poisoned arrows, gossip, speculate, kiss up to people
沽名釣譽 踩住人地個頭上 做世界仔)
Cheat and lie, step on others to get ahead, be a worldly child)
再信致富靠儲蓄太浪漫 現在每一分耕耘 獲七分孤單
Trusting that saving money will make you rich is a romantic delusionNowadays, for every ounce of effort, you'll only get a fraction of the reward
這些叫與時進化 過去已破爛
This is what's called adapting to the times, the old ways are outdated
未習慣會漸漸慣 社會雖荒誕 起碼包裝燦爛
It's not easy at first, but you'll gradually get used to itThe society may be absurd, but at least it's packaged beautifully
大眾向利字進發 已閉起雙眼 不去分好與爛 腐化
Everyone's chasing after money, closing their eyesIgnoring what's good and bad, corruption
未習慣會漸漸看慣 社會雖荒誕 起碼包裝燦爛
It's not easy at first, but you'll gradually get used to itThe society may be absurd, but at least it's packaged beautifully
大眾向利字進發 已閉起雙眼 恐怕越見越煩
Everyone's chasing after money, closing their eyesI'm afraid it will only get worse
不慣也會漸漸變慣 試放開感歎 且看花火燦爛
It's not easy at first, but you'll gradually get used to itTry to let go of your sighs and watch the fireworks explode
一眾已向利字進發 為瞬間璀璨
Everyone's chasing after money, for a moment of brilliance
手法不需設限 腐化 被盛讚
No limits to the tactics they'll use, corruption is praised
