大卫·伯恩的美国乌托邦（2020）

追着狐狸跑
On a fox’s trail
谢谢
Thank you.
如你们所见
As you can see,
我们演出的时候
we don’t have any cables or wires
身上没有接任何电线
attached to us in these shows,
连接设备或器材
attaching to gear or equipment
或任何类似的东西
or any of those kinds of things.
我们无拘无束
We’re completely untethered.
可以在台上随意走动
We can go wherever we like on the stage.
感觉非常自♥由♥
It’s very liberating.
考虑这部剧的时候
When I began to think about the show,
我意识到
I realized that,
我们人类最喜欢看的
well, what we humans like looking at the most is,
当然是其他人类
yeah, other humans.
胜过自行车 胜过美丽的日落
More than a bicycle, more than a beautiful sunset,
可能也胜过一袋薯片
and probably more than a bag of potato chips.
我考虑
So I thought
这部剧 然后我想到
about the show, and I wondered,
“如果我们把舞台上多余的东西都除去
“What if we could eliminate everything from the stage
只留下我们最关心的东西
Except the stuff we care about the most?
那还剩下什么”
What would be left?”
还剩下我们 我们和你们
Well, it would be us, us and you,
这就是这部剧的意义
and that’s what the show is.
Every Day Is a Miracle
玫瑰被修剪成
The rose is pruned
完美的形状
To a perfect shape
不知是谁眼中的完美
Perfect for whom, I wonder
鸡的思维难以捉摸
The chicken thinks in mysterious ways
但我们追求的不是美
But beauty is not what we’re after
鸡想象出来一个天堂
Now, the chicken imagines a heaven
到处都是公鸡和玉米
Full of roosters and plenty of corn
上帝则是一只老公鸡
And God is a very old rooster
鸡蛋就是他的儿子耶稣
And eggs are like Jesus, his son

所以你需要我
And that’s why you want me
你的舌头
What does it feel like
是什么感觉
To be your tongue
在你的嘴里动来动去
Moving around in your mouth?
在你的爱中徜徉
To feel free in the forest of your love
在你家
A cockroach
宇宙中的一只蟑螂
In the cosmos of your house

没有和谐意识
No sense of harmony

只问 “怎么了 怎么了”
Say, “What is it? What is it? What is it?”
吓唬一下 他就举起手
Give a little shock and he raises his hand
有人♥大♥喊
Somebody shouts out, says,
“怎么了 怎么了”
“What is it? What is it? What is it?”
他在夜里被击倒
He was shot down in the night
人们开车经过 他一息尚存
People ride by, but his body’s still alive

The girl in the window, what has she done?
她低头看着我说
She looks down at me and says
“我不想死”

谁来告诉我该何去何从
Now, someone should have told me where to go
爬来爬去
Crawling all around
寻找脚印 脚印
Looking for foot, foot, footprints
