bluffing as usual

Playing Along
Keane：Perfect Symmetry，2008
translated by me



At the start of the news day, the fires begin
In words and in pictures, but I'm not listening
I'm not taking it in

I'm gonna go to the country, where nothing goes on
我要去一個人煙罕至的鄉下地方
gonna bury my head, where I can't hear the sound of bombs
把我的頭埋在一個再也聽不到那些語言炸彈的地方
Playing along

Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, so many good people all
Just playing along

I'm gonna go to a bar, where is the jukebox is on
我要去一個有點唱機的酒吧
Gonna shut out the noise, with a rock'n'roll song
我要用一首搖滾歌曲釋放噪音
Playing along

I'm gonna to turn up the volume
I'm gonna to turn up the volume
I'm gonna to turn up the volume
我要把音量調到最大
Till I can't even think
直到我不能思考

Tell us a tale of the proud and the free
Sing us a swingtime American melody
From 'Follow The Fleet'

Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, a billion people all
Just playing along

I'm gonna to turn up the volume
I'm gonna to turn up the volume
I'm gonna to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
