这时代曾要求我们唱歌，

The age demanded that we sing

却同时割掉了我们的舌头。

And cut away our tongue.

这时代曾要求我们畅饮，

The age demanded that we flow

却在酒桶上把塞子敲紧。

And hammered in the bung.

这时代曾要求我们起舞，

The age demanded that we dance

却硬把我们塞进铁长裤。

And jammed us into iron pants.

最后这时代得到的东西，

And in the end the age was handed

是它要求的那种臭垃圾。

The sort of shit that it demanded.
