The Boy In the Bubble
It was a slow day
一個漫長的日子
And the sun was beating
陽光炙烤著
On the soldiers by the side of the road
路邊的士兵
There was a bright light
一道閃光瞬現
A shattering of shop windows
櫥窗碎了一地
The bomb in the baby carriage was wired to the radio
嬰兒車裡被連接到收音機上的炸彈
These are the days of miracle and wonder
這是個充滿奇蹟和驚喜的時代
This is the long distance call
所謂的長途電話
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
是鏡頭以慢動作跟拍我們的方式
The way we look to us all
是我們所有人審視自己的方式
The way we look to a distant constellation
是我們觀測遙遠星座的方式，
That's dying in a corner of the sky
那在天空一角垂死的星座
These are the days of miracle and wonder and don't cry baby, don't cry
因為這是個充滿奇蹟和驚喜的時代，所以別哭寶貝，別哭
Don't cry
別哭
It was a dry wind
一陣燥熱的風
And it swept across the desert
掃過沙漠
And it curled into the circle of birth
捲入了生命的輪迴之中
And the dead sand
死去的沙粒
Falling on the children
落在了孩子，
The mothers and the fathers
母親，父親，
And the automatic earth
以及不停轉動的地球身上
These are the days of miracle and wonder
這是個充滿奇蹟和驚喜的時代
This is the long distance call
所謂的長途電話
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
是鏡頭以慢動作跟拍我們的方式
The way we look to us all
是我們所有人審視自己的方式
The way we look to a distant constellation
是我們觀測遙遠星座的方式，
That's dying in a corner of the sky
那在天空一角垂死的星座
These are the days of miracle and wonder and don't cry baby, don't cry
因為這是個充滿奇蹟和驚喜的時代，所以別哭寶貝，別哭
Don't cry
別哭
一個轉身跳投
It's a turn-around jump shot
是每個人的從零開始
It's everybody jump start
每代人都會捧出一個流行巨星
It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts
藥物成了魔法，而魔法成了藝術
Medicine is magical and magical is art
被泡泡罩住的男孩
The Boy in the Bubble
和有著顆狒狒心臟的嬰兒，我相信，
And the baby with the baboon heart and I believe
這是個叢林裡有無數激光的時代
These are the days of lasers in the jungle
無數的激光就在叢林的某處
Lasers in the jungle somewhere
斷斷續續的信號傳遞著不變的信息
Staccato signals of constant information
百萬富豪，億萬富豪，和嬰兒間鬆散的關聯
A loose affiliation of millionaires and billionaires and baby
這是個充滿奇蹟和驚喜的時代
These are the days of miracle and wonder
所謂的長途電話
This is the long distance call
是鏡頭以慢動作跟拍我們的方式
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
是我們所有人審視自己的方式
The way we look to us all
是我們觀測遙遠星座的方式，
The way we look to a distant constellation
那在天空一角垂死的星座
That's dying in a corner of the sky
因為這是個充滿奇蹟和驚喜的時代，所以別哭寶貝，別哭
These are the days of miracle and wonder and don't cry baby, don't cry
別哭
Don't cry
