We run like a river

（By Pulp）


　　　關於Pulp，我想我就不再多說了，他們的歌我放了三首，
　應該是本網誌中最多的。我想實在是因為那詞是那麼貼近一般
　小人物的感覺，如同我在「那段日子」中提到的：＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

　　　漸漸地我討厭睡覺，曾經是最享受睡覺的我卻想要醒著，
　醒著可以感受到自己正是自由的，能擁有更多時間，能夠不喪
　失自己的腦。Jarvis Cocker唱的 MondayMorning 的那段詞活
　了過來，無情地佔據我的腦袋瓜：

　" Is this the light of the new day dawning?
　 A future bright that you can walking?
　 No! It's just another monday morning.
　 Do it all over again oh baby. "

　＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

　　　生活就好像一個無限迴圈，悲觀地來說，當你每天都覺得
　life sucks時，即使過了一個周末後，面對你的還是另一個一樣
　的monday morning罷了。

　　　說到這首歌，高中時覺得他實在是很不討喜，前面一直在
　" Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! " 地鬼叫，十分地難聽。可是上大學
　後不知不覺地就愛上了它，唱出的盡是一些人生的「不光明面
　」卻也有他的道理在（對生活不滿意的人總是比較多）。

　　　當我們終於從學校畢業了，自以為變得很成熟時，卻一直
　找不到一個讓我們渡過一日又一日的理由。最後只能一週又一
　週，在星期一的早晨細數著生命又重覆地過去了。

　　　最後一段唱道：「哦，你現在自由了，那你將來要做什麼
　呢？你要去見誰呢？你要到哪兒去呢？最重要的是，你怎麼知
　道你沒有把事情盤算錯呢？」加上Jarvis Cocker近乎歇斯底里
　的吼叫，讓我整個人都吸進了這首曲子中。

　There's nothing to do so you just stay in bed,
　oh poor thing,
　why live in the world when you can live in your head?

　Mmm when you can go out late from Monday,
　till Saturday turns into Sunday,
　and now you're back here at Monday,
　so we can do it all over again.
　And you go aah ah ah
　I want a refund,
　I want a light,
　I want a reason,
　to make it through the night, alright.

　And so you finally left school,
　so now what are you going to do?
　Now you're so grown up,
　yeah you're oh oh oh oh oh so mature oh.

　Going out late from Monday,
　chuck up in the street on Sunday,
　you don't want to live till Monday,
　and have to do it all again.
　and you go aah ah ah
　I want a refund,
　I want a light,
　I want a reason for all this night after night after night after night.
　Oh I know that it's stupid but,
　I just can't seem to spend a night at home,
　cos my friends left town,
　and I'm here all alone ow.

　Oh yeah they say the past must die for the future to be born,
　in that case die little mother, die - ooh.
　Stomach in,
　chest out,
　on your marks,
　get set, go.
　Now, now that you're free,
　what are you going to be?
　And who are you going to see?
　And where, where will you go?
　And how will you know,
　You didn't get it all wrong?
　Is this the light of a new day dawning?
　A future bright that you can walk in?
　No it's just another Monday morning.
　Do it all over again, oh baby.
　La la la la la la
　Do do do do do do
