Congratulations



MGMT



美国独立摇滚乐队MGMT在2010年4月发行了新专辑Congratulations,其中这首同名歌曲Congratulations,在今年滚石杂志评选的年度最佳50首歌曲中(50 Best Songs Of 2010)排名第46。歌词讲述的是fast fame,一夜成名的故事,all I need's a great big congratulations,名誉当头,我们都会迷失吗?



Dead in the water

It's not a paid vacation

The sons and daughters

Of city officials attend demonstrations

It's hardly sink or swim

When all is well if the tickets sell



Out with the whimper

It's not a blaze of glory

You look down from your temple

As people endeavor to make it a story

And chisel a marble word

but all is lost if it's never heard



But I've got someone to make reports

And tell me how my money's spent

To book my stays and draw my blinds

So I can't tell what's really there

And all I need's a great big congratulations



I'll keep your dreams

You pay attention for me

As strange as it seems,

I'd rather dissolve

Than have you ignore me

The ground may be moving fast

But I tied my boots to a broken mast



The difference is clear

You throw it in your cauldron

Rust and veneer, dusk and dawn

Steinways and Baldwins

you start with a simple stock

of all the waste and salt to taste



But damn my luck and damn these friends

That keep on combing back their smiles

I save my grace with half-assed guilt

And lay down the quilt upon the lawn

Spread my arms and soak up

"Congratulations"
