十年人事 (feat. 陶傑)

七一的晚上 煙花多漂亮
獅子山腳下突然過十年太漫長
飄忽的政治 消失的偶像
獅子山腳下步行過十年到夕陽

回歸十年 突然 諗返起以前
五十年不變到底有無兌現
第一年嘅煙花匯演特別美艷
但係經濟狀況已經大不如前
係董生腳頭唔好 定係咁啱金融風暴
啲新聞仲報導 呢十年香港幾好
我哋有幾好嗻 你哋點會知道
啲師奶都越嚟越慳
打工仔又老奉加班
幾多個人 曾經係負資產
幾多大學生 人工唔過一萬
一蚊一隻雞都無人夠膽 出街食晚飯
畢業就等於失業
十年人事幾番新 十年過得幾艱辛
有人捍衛到個髮型 捍衛唔到民心
熱烈慶祝回歸 有邊個會咁諗
哥哥 梅姐 霑叔 羅文
失業 SARS 通縮 流感
過去十年有太多唔開心
事到如今 靈灰閣都無預你同我嗰份
或者應份 俾啲掌聲我哋各位香港人

七一的晚上 煙花多漂亮
獅子山腳下突然過十年太漫長
飄忽的政治 消失的偶像
獅子山腳下步行過十年到夕陽

(十年回歸政府畀人話低B，市民又畀人當白痴)
(二十三條立法冇咗件事，八萬五冧樓加沙士)
(眨吓眼就輪到煲呔執個熱煎堆，政改方案搞到累鬥累)
(陳太對葉瘤唔啱嘴，香港人前世究竟犯咗乜嘢罪呢)

原來突然眨下眼 咁就過左十年
以前仲係中學生 今日要出嚟搵錢
每一年嘅煙花匯演都係一個紀念
紀念 公眾假期多咗幾天
係曾生腳頭幾好
定係佢無夾硬 無事搵事嚟做
近年經濟轉好 大家行返舊路
望住股票指數
有得搵就好搵 搵一陣就好搵過你打幾份工
內地勞工 今日變身自由人
嚟到香港自由行 每個人洗幾千蚊
難怪咁多人要爭相回流掘金
以前有事走咗去 今日無事返番嚟
佢哋有無當過香港地係佢嘅屋企
皇后碼頭要拆
灣仔嗰條印刷 街又要拆
會變成乜嘢風格
維多利亞海港 每年都Transform
好似變形金剛 變成維多利亞河
河嘅對面有座山 山下面燈光燦爛
七百萬人男男女女 有你同我 我同佢
七百萬人來來去去 有你同我 我同佢

七一的晚上 煙花多漂亮
獅子山腳下突然過十年太漫長
飄忽的政治 消失的偶像
獅子山腳下步行過十年到夕陽

Ten Years of Life (feat. Dandelion)

On the evening of July 1st, the fireworks were beautiful
At the foot of Lion Rock, a decade has suddenly passed
Politics are fickle, idols have vanished
We've walked for ten years at the foot of Lion Rock, until sunset

Ten years after the handover, I suddenly think back to the past
Has the promise of fifty years of no change been fulfilled?
The first year's fireworks display was particularly beautiful
But the economy is already in decline
Was it Mr. Tung's bad luck or just the financial crisis?
The news still reports that Hong Kong has been doing well for the past ten years
How well are we doing, how would you know?
The housewives are becoming increasingly frugal
The working class is forced to work overtime
How many people have negative equity?
How many university graduates earn less than ten thousand dollars?
No one dares to go out for dinner anymore, even if a chicken costs only one dollar.
Graduation is synonymous with unemployment
A decade of change, a decade of hardship
Some have defended their hairstyles, but they have lost the hearts of the people
Who would think that we are celebrating the tenth anniversary of the handover?
Leslie, Anita, Chow, Roman
Unemployment, SARS, deflation, flu
The past decade has been too full of sorrow
Even the columbarium has no places for you and me
Perhaps we deserve some applause, all of us Hongkongers.

On the evening of July 1st, the fireworks were beautiful
At the foot of Lion Rock, a decade has suddenly passed
Politics are fickle, idols have vanished
We've walked for ten years at the foot of Lion Rock, until sunset

(In the first ten years after the handover, the government was called incompetent, and the people were treated like idiots)
(Article 23 legislation was shelved, 85,000 apartments were vacated, and SARS struck)
(In the blink of an eye, it was Donald Tsang's turn to take the heat, and the political reform package became a mess)
(Rita Fan and Jasper Tsang were at odds with each other. What sins did the people of Hong Kong commit in their past lives?)

I didn't realize that in the blink of an eye, ten years have passed
I was still a high school student, but now I have to go out and make money
The fireworks display each year is a reminder
A reminder that we have a few more public holidays
Was it Mr. Tsang's good luck
Or did he just not create trouble for no reason?
In recent years, the economy has improved, and everyone is back on their feet
Just look at the stock market index
If there's money to be made, make it while you can, because it's better than working several jobs
Mainland laborers have become self-employed
They come to Hong Kong to spend thousands of dollars on shopping
No wonder so many people are rushing back to dig for gold
They left when there were problems, and they're back when things are good
Do they even consider Hong Kong their home?
The Queen's Pier is to be demolished
The printing street in Wan Chai is also to be demolished
What style will it become?
Victoria Harbour is transformed every year
Like a Transformer, it becomes Victoria River
Across the river is a mountain, its foot bathed in light
Seven million people, men and women, you and me, me and him/her
Seven million people, coming and going, you and me, me and him/her

On the evening of July 1st, the fireworks were beautiful
At the foot of Lion Rock, a decade has suddenly passed
Politics are fickle, idols have vanished
We've walked for ten years at the foot of Lion Rock, until sunset
