以下歌词翻译由微信翻译 文曲大模型提供

It got too hot and so we overthrew the system

气氛太热烈所以我们推翻了这个体制

'Cause there's no place for human existence like right here

因为这里是人类赖以生存的地方

On this bright blue marble orbited by trash

在亮蓝色的大理石上到处都是垃圾

Man there's no beating that

朋友无人匹敌

It was no big thing to give up the way of life we had

放弃我们拥有的生活方式没什么大不了的

Oh ho oh

My social life is now quite a bit less hectic

我的社交生活现在不那么忙碌了

The nightlife and the protests are pretty scarce

夜生活和抗议活动很少

Now I mostly spend the long days walking through the city

如今我大部分时间都在城里闲逛

Empty as a tomb

像坟墓一样空荡荡

Sometimes I miss the top of the food chain

有时候我怀念食物链顶端的感觉

But what a perfect afternoon

多么完美的下午

Industry and commerce toppled to their knees

工商业应声倒地跪倒

The gears of progress halted

前进的齿轮戛然而止

The underclass set free

下层阶级解放了

The super ego shatters with our ideologies

超我随着我们的意识形态分崩离析

The obscene injunction to enjoy life

Disappears as in a dream

就像在梦中一样消失

And as we return to out native state

当我们回到故乡

To our primal scene

回到我们最原始的场景

The temperature it started dropping

气温开始下降

The ice floes began to freeze

浮冰开始结冰

From time to time we all get a bit restless

我们都会时不时感到焦躁不安

With no one advertising to us constantly

没有人不停地给我们打广告

But the tribe at the former airport

但是以前机场的部落

Some nights has meat and dancing

有些夜晚纵享欢乐尽情热舞

If you don't mind gathering and hunting

如果你不介意采集猎物

We're all still pretty good at eating on the run

我们依然很擅长边跑边吃

Things it would have been helpful to know before the revolution

在革命之前知道一些事情会有帮助

Though I'll admit some degree of resentment

虽然我承认我有点怨恨

For the sudden lack of convenience around here

因为这里突然变得不方便了

But there are some visionaries among us developing some products

但我们当中也有一些远见卓识的人在开发一些产品

To aid us in our struggle to survive

在我们为生存而挣扎时伸出援手

On this godless rock that refuses to die

在这无神的岩石上不肯死去
