Badly Drawn Boy – Year of the Rat

忘記是怎樣的因緣際會聽到這首歌，好似是晚間的MTV台與有趣的音樂錄影帶吸引我的注意。一直想找到好時機介紹這首歌，但沒有比即將跨入的鼠年的除夕夜更適合的時候了。我喜歡它無論何時聽，都能給我鎮定心魂的力量。



June is on the run, for so long　時間飛奔，長久以來

Pushed and pulled then shunned it was so wrong　推擠閃避，但這一切如此荒唐

These 4 walls crashing in wont stop me now　四面八方倒落的牆無法阻擋我

Coz I’m alive, I’m out tonight, all night.　因為我還活著，我今晚要鎮夜狂歡



Everybody needs to know its the year of the rat　大家都該知道已經是鼠年了

Every day we've got to hold on　每日我們都得持撐下去，只要我們撐下去

Coz if we hold on we could find some new energy　我們便能找到新的能量



Streets with flags unfurled like treasure　整街飄揚的旗幟如同寶藏

Thank me for my words it’s a pleasure　感謝我的讚美，而我很榮幸

Just don’t ask me to stay coz I’ll be gone　別要我停駐，因為我將離開

But it’s alright, I'm OK, always　沒關係的，我很好。一直都很好



Everybody needs to know its the year of the rat　大家都該知道已經是鼠年了

Every day we've got to hold on　每日我們都得持撐下去，只要我們撐下去

Coz if we hold on we could find some new energy　我們便能找到新的能量



One plus one is one together　一加一等於一

One plus one is one forever　一加一永遠等於一

One plus one is one together　一加一等於一

One plus one is one forever　一加一永遠等於一
