Skull Beneath the Skin
皮下之骨
Megadeth
Mean and infectious
The evil prophets rise
Dance of the macabre
As witches streak the sky
Decadent worship
Of black magic and sorcery
In the womb of the devil's dungeon
Trapped without a plea
惡毒且具傳染性
邪惡的先知們起身
跳著死亡之舞
女巫飛過天際
舉行黑魔術
敗德的崇拜儀式
你來不及申辯
便受困魔窟的深淵
See thing in agony
Necrosis is the fate
Pins sticking through the skin
The venom now sedates
Locked in a pillory
Nowhere to be found
Screaming for your life
But no one hears a sound
見識劇烈的苦痛
腐敗生疽是宿命
刺針穿過肌膚
毒液如今靜止
被枷鎖所禁錮
任誰也找不到
你為求生而尖叫
但沒有人聽得到
Help me!
救救我!
Prepare the patient's scalp
To peel away
Metal caps his ears
He'll hear not what we say
Solid steel visor
Riveted 'cross his eyes
Iron staples close his jaws
So no one hears his cries
準備將病人的頭皮
給剝除
金屬封住他的雙耳
再也聽不到我們說什麼
堅硬的鐵甲
以鉚釘蒙住他的雙眼
鐵條勒緊他下顎
於是沒有人聽得到他哭號
The skull beneath the skin
Now you're drawn and quartered
Your bones will make the X
Symbol stands for poison
And it's chained to your head
As we fold your arms
To make the holy cross
We cross the crucifix
Religion has been lost
皮下的骷髏
現在你被大卸八塊
骨頭排列為X
象徵劇毒的符號
鐵鍊鎖上你的頭骨
當我們交叉你的雙臂
排列為神聖的十字架
我們在胸前畫下十字
信仰早已喪失
The skull beneath this skin
皮下的骷髏
(高仕艷 譯)
溫馨的Dave黍叔說故事時間:
http://youtu.be/Dy5mi0E56qA
鳥鳥的聽譯:
「Alice Cooper,也許你們知道,他是我的教父。
有次他打電話給我,建議我可以刺個青。
我沒有任何刺青,因為我想你不會在賓士車上貼保險桿貼紙吧?
所以,就這樣囉(挽起袖子)──什麼都沒有。
不過我有問他假如我要刺青,可不可以刺Billion Dollar Baby的圖案。
我畫了Vic Rattlehead圖案的雛型。Vic代表「受害者(Victim)」,Rattlehead是因為
我媽以前叫我不要這樣用我的頭(甩頭),她說我的頭會咯咯響,呃,來不及了啦。
事實上Vic Rattlehead在The Skull Beneath The Skin這首歌有完整詳細的介紹,它解釋
了那些封鐵是怎麼來的:不看邪惡之事、不說邪惡之事、不聽邪惡之事;交叉的骨頭代表
對宗教的困惑,因為宗教組織之間彼此對抗;身上綁著鐵鍊,因為那些毒害……因為當我
小時候,看什麼東西都是這樣。所以這就是它的由來。」

…and sitting in a class with religious people who say,
"Brother, can I have a pencil?" wasn't for me. I said to
them "Fuck you, get your own pencil!" They didn't dig that.
與一群說『兄弟,可以借我一支鉛筆嗎?』的虔誠宗教人士當同班同學,
實在不是我的個性。我跟他們說,『幹你的,自己找支筆!』
當然,他們很不爽╮(﹋﹏﹌)╭
