Aerosmith - Livin' On The Edge(社會邊緣人)：歌詞+翻譯

Aerosmith於1992年的歌曲，
這首歌是Aerosmith轉型成商業樂團的第一首歌，
其實樂隊在當時正面臨著要不要轉型的窘境，
畢竟在那時候他們已經走過快20多個年頭，
音樂在社會上也面臨著龐大消費者的考驗，
為了讓樂團能繼續在世界上活躍，
他們開始試著做一些不那麼特立獨行的音樂，
作一些能符合商業層面的暢銷音樂，
這首歌在當時受到廣大的歡迎，
排行榜上也不差，
但對於一些聽著他們歌長大的老粉們卻很難接受，
我個人是認為這首歌還不至於那麼糟糕，
水準相當不錯，
不能接受可能是因為轉型的關係吧，
90年代後到現在，歌曲的型態也變化很大，
所以必較之陣痛罷了。

[Verse 1]

There's something wrong with the world today

今天這世界有點怪怪的

I don't know what it is
我搞不懂怎麼回事

Something's wrong with our eyes
我倆的眼神也怪怪的

We're seeing things in a different way

我們用不同的方式去看同件事

And God knows it ain't His

祂曉得這不是祂的習慣

It sure ain't no surprise, yeah

這肯定不是什麼驚喜

[Chorus]

We're livin' on the edge

The light bulb's getting dim

There's meltdown in the sky (ahh)

If you can judge a wise man

By the color of his skin

Then mister, you're a better man than I

那麼先生，你比我強多了

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

Tell me what you think about your situation

對我談談你對目前現況的看法吧

Complication, aggravation is getting to you, yeah
你正處於屋漏偏逢連夜雨

If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is falling

如果有個小鬼頭告訴你天要塌了

Even if it wasn't, would you still come crawling

即使沒這檔事，你依然會再次爬回老家嗎？

Back again?

I bet you would, my friend

朋友，我賭你會

Again and again and again and again and again

且會沒完沒了地被洗腦下去

There's something right with the world today

And everybody knows it's wrong

But we can tell 'em no or we could let it go

但我們能拒絕他們，或是隨他去

But I'd would rather be a hangin' on

但我要堅持我自己的作法
