The Flaming Lips - Waitin' for A Superman

Have you ever waited for your Superman?你曾經走進死胡同，
你曾經跌倒放聲大哭，
你曾經遇到困難無法解決，
你曾經陷在悲傷中不可自拔，
你曾經期待有超人來拯救你嗎？

你的超人是那個穿著紅內褲和斗篷的肌肉男？
是MONSTER中的超人葛利馬？
是尼采下的超人？
是你的父母親？
是你的師長？
是你的朋友？
是你的情人？
或者，你就是你的超人？

也許超人並不存在，也或許就算他在，但他卻無能為力。

Wayne在The Soft Bulletin (1999)中唱著Waitin' for A Superman。
他溫柔的說，
只要把握住自己，只要堅持自己的信念，只要存著希望，
這陣陣的鼓聲就像踏呀踏著的腳步聲，
於是我們知道，我們的超人一定會來的。




The Flaming Lips - Waitin' for a Superman (Live, Nov. 6th 1999)

Waitin' for a Superman (thebrooke cover, so brilliant!)

I asked you a question But I didn't need you to reply Is it getting heavy? But then I realize	我曾問你一個問題 但我並不需要你的回答 「事情變糟了嗎？」 是的，我懂了
Is it getting heavy? Well, I thought it was already as heavy as can be	「真的變糟了嗎？」 嗯，我想已經不能再糟了
Is it overwhelming To use a crane to crush a fly? It's a good time for Superman To lift the sun into the sky	我們就像是快被起重機壓扁的蒼蠅一樣 一點也使不上力 那麼，現在就是超人出現的時候了 超人啊發揮你的神力吧！
Cause it's getting heavy Well, I thought it was already as heavy as can be	事情已經很糟了 而且我想已經到了不能再糟的時候
Tell everybody waiting for Superman That they should try to hold on best they can He hasn't dropped them, forgot them, or anything It's just too heavy for Superman to lift	請告訴所有等待超人的人們 要努力堅持你們所擁有的 超人從不曾遺忘你們 他只是還有太多事要做而已
Cause it's getting heavy Well, I thought it was already as heavy as can be	事情已經很糟了 而且我想已經到了不能再糟的時候
Tell everybody waiting for Superman That they should try to hold on best they can He hasn't dropped them, forgot them, or anything It's just too heavy for Superman to lift	請告訴所有等待超人的人們 要努力堅持你們所擁有的 超人從不曾遺忘你們 他只是還有太多事要做而已
