【Bobby Darin】【Kevin Spacey】Simple song of freedom

每次當這句“ COME AND SING A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM” 在耳畔想起,眼前就會出現電影《Beyond the Sea》裏麵的鏡頭,由Kevin Spacey 扮演的Bobby Darin 重返最初成名的夜總會,演唱起這首醞釀已久反複修改的歌曲,從旋轉樓梯上同時走下一排身穿金色長袍的伴舞者,是那種黑人教堂很流行的演繹方式,而現場的觀眾也從驚詫後的無聲到如癡如醉。最煽情的是最後他終於把他的母親介紹給大家,讓他的母親從此走出了“姐姐”的角色。這首歌其實是首反戰歌曲,但因為劇情的緣故,總會讓我聽得淚流滿麵。

 

歌詞如下:

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

HEY THERE, MISTER BLACK MAN,
CAN YOU HEAR ME?
I DON`T WANT YOUR DIAMONDS OR YOUR GAME.
I JUST WANT TO BE SOMEONE
KNOWN TO YOU AS ME
AND I WILL BET MY LIFE
YOU WANT THE SAME.

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

SEVEN HUNDRED MILLION,
ARE YOU LIST'NING?
MOST OF WHAT YOU READ IS MADE OF LIES.
BUT SPEAKING ONE TO ONE,
AIN`T IT EV'RYBODY`S SUN
TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING WHEN WE RISE?

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

BROTHER YEVTOSHENKO,
ARE YOU BUSY?
IF NOT, WON'T YOU DROP A FRIEND A LINE
AND TELL ME IF THE MAN
WHO IS PLOWING UP YOUR LAND
HAS GOT THE WAR MACHINE UPON HIS MIND.

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

NO DOUBT SOME FOLKS ENJOY DOING BATTLE,
LIKE PRESIDENTS,
PRIME MINISTERS AND KINGS.
SO LET US BUILD THEM SHELVES
WHERE THEY CAN FIGHT AMONG THEMSELVES
AND LEAVE THE PEOPLE BE WHO LIKE TO SING.

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV`RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.
