"未来"

还给我我破碎的夜
我的镜厅和我秘密的生活
这里孤独，
没有人留下受折磨
给我绝对的控制
侵越一切活的灵魂
躺在我身边，宝贝，
这是命令！
给我阴道和**
拿唯一剩下的树
并用它塞满
你文化的洞
还给我柏林墙
给我斯大林和圣保罗
我已经看到了未来，兄弟：
那是谋杀。

事物开始滑动，向各个方向滑动
不会再有什么
什么你能衡量的东西了
暴雪，世界的暴雪
已经跨越了门槛
它已经颠覆了
灵魂的次序
当他们说忏悔忏悔
我想知道他们在说什么
当他们说忏悔忏悔
我想知道他们在说什么
当他们说忏悔忏悔
我想知道他们在说什么

你不是从风那里知道我
你永远不会，你也没有
我是写下圣经的
小犹太人
我见过民族的兴衰
我听过他们的故事，听过它们全部
除了爱唯一幸存的引擎
你的仆人在这里，他已被告知
要清楚地，冷酷地说：
结束了，不再有
任何未来
而现在天堂的车轮停下了
你感觉到恶魔马背上的短鞭
为未来做好了准备：
那是谋杀。

会有古老的西方代码的
破裂
你私人的生活会突然爆炸
会有幽灵
会有路上的火
和跳舞的白人
你会看到一个
倒吊的女人
垂落的长袍遮住了她的脸
所有那些讨厌的小诗人
聚在一起
试图发出查尔斯.曼森
和跳舞的白人的声音

还给我柏林墙
给我斯大林和圣保罗
给我基督
或给我广岛
现在，摧毁另一个胎儿吧
总之我们不像孩子
我看到了未来，宝贝：
那是谋杀

事物开始滑动……

当他们说忏悔忏悔……

"The Future"

Give me back my broken night
my mirrored room, my secret life
it's lonely here,
there's no one left to torture
Give me absolute control
over every living soul
And lie beside me, baby,
that's an order!
Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder.

Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant

You don't know me from the wind
you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew
who wrote the Bible
I've seen the nations rise and fall
I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engine of survival
Your servant here, he has been told
to say it clear, to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going
any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future:
it is murder

Things are going to slide ...

There'll be the breaking of the ancient
western code
Your private life will suddenly explode
There'll be phantoms
There'll be fires on the road
and the white man dancing
You'll see a woman
hanging upside down
her features covered by her fallen gown
and all the lousy little poets
coming round
tryin' to sound like Charlie Manson
and the white man dancin'

Give me back the Berlin wall
Give me Stalin and St Paul
Give me Christ
or give me Hiroshima
Destroy another fetus now
We don't like children anyhow
I've seen the future, baby:
it is murder

Things are going to slide ...

When they said REPENT REPENT ...
