Give me Novacaine 赐我毒品
                  June 13 六月13日

Take away the sensation inside 请把这种感觉从我内心驱散  
Bitter sweet migraine in my head 苦痛却甜蜜的偏头痛困扰着我
Its like a throbbing tooth ache of the mind 那就像牙痛带来的阵通
I can't take this feeling anymore 我再也感觉不到什么了

Drain the pressure from the swelling, 大脑被肿胀的压力占据
The sensations overwhelming, 这种感觉在身体里散播着
Give me a long kiss goodnight 请在今晚给我一个长吻
and everything will be alright 一切都将恢复正常
Tell me that I won't feel a thing 告诉我 我不会再感觉痛苦
So give me Novacaine 所以请给我毒品

Out of body and out of mind 感觉就如灵魂出壳
Kiss the demons out of my dreams 去亲吻梦境之外的魔鬼
I get the funny feeling, that's alright 感觉可笑,很不错
Jimmy says it's better than here, Jimmy说那些感觉比现在好多了
I’ll tell u why 我会告诉你原因

Drain the pressure from the swelling, 大脑有肿胀的压力
The sensations overwhelming, 这种感觉在身体里散播着
Give me a long kiss goodnight 请在今晚给我一个长吻
and everything will be alright 一切都将恢复正常
Tell me that I won't feel a thing 告诉我 我不会再感觉痛苦
So give me Novacaine 所以请给我毒品

Oh Novacaine 啊 毒品

Drain the pressure from the swelling, 大脑有肿胀的压力
The sensations overwhelming, 这种感觉在身体里散播着
Give me a long kiss goodnight 请在今晚给我一个长吻
and everything will be alright 一切都将恢复正常
Tell me that I won't feel a thing 告诉我 我不会再感觉痛苦
So give me Novacaine 因此请给我毒品

这一首,是描写jimmy在St.jimmy的鼓动下,去注射麻醉剂。逃离现实,去追寻他所谓的“梦境”的故事。歌词诠释的是他们两人服用novacaine后的感觉,幻想。

She's a rebel 她是个叛逆者

[x2]

这首歌是关于Whatsername的, Jimmy和St.jimmy无意间遇到了这个女孩.并被她身上所散发出的那种叛逆感所深深吸引.  
Whatsername在整张专辑里应该是一个叛逆的象征,他颠覆传统,与现实和生活作对.极具Punk精神. 歌词的第三句: she is the salt of the earth 源出《圣经·新约》中的《马太福音》(Matthew)第五章第十三节。此语直译为“大地之盐”,意指“不会腐烂”。指的是那种纯洁,正直,无伤害的人. 在greenday的国外论坛上有个朋友的解释也很有意思, 他说salt of the earth  
源自于天主教对信仰圣徒的称呼(both living and dead) 而且罗马教皇约翰保罗(john paul)二世曾对外界宣称:世界上需要圣徒,需要你们这些salt of the earth... 可见,用这些来形容whatsername,其用意之隐讳. 宗教和媒体本身就是对立的两种产物,Whatsername是维护自己"宗教"信仰的象征,他要颠覆这个令人厌恶的世界.所以她既"正义",同时又"危险".这种行为对jimmy产生了极大的触动,他被这位女孩的性格所征服.( hold on my heart like a handgrenade......)

=========================
Extraordinary Girl       一个不平凡的女孩

She's an Extraordinary girl 她是个非传统的女孩
In an ordinary world 却被困在一个传统的世界
And she cant seem to get away 而且看来她无法逃脱

He lacks the courage in his mind 他缺少勇气
Like a child left behind 像极了一个被抛弃的孩子
Like a pet left in the rain 像极了一个被遗弃在雨中的宠物

She's all alone again 她再一次陷入孤独
Wiping the tears from her eyes 泪水划过她的脸颊
Some days he feels like dying 有些时候她甚至觉得快要死去
She gets so sick of crying 她是多么厌恶哭泣啊

She sees the mirror of herself 她看着镜中的自己
An image she wants to sell 那是一个她想要卖掉的画面
To anyone willing to buy 卖给任何像要买的人

He steals the image in her kiss 他从她的吻中偷走了这副画面
From her hearts apocalypse 从她心中的启示
From the one called whatsername 来自一个被叫whatsername的人

She's all alone again 她再一次陷入孤独
Wiping the tears from her eyes 泪水划过她的脸颊
Some days he feels like dying 有些时候她甚至觉得快要死去
She gets so sick of crying 她是多么厌恶哭泣啊

She's all alone again 她再一次陷入孤独
Wiping the tears from her eyes 泪水划过她的脸颊
Some days he feels like dying 有些时候她甚至觉得快要死去
Some days it's not worth trying 有些时候实在不值得去争取什么
Now that they both are finding 现在他们都发现了
She gets so sick of crying 她是多么讨厌痛哭啊

She's an Extraordinary girl 她是个不平凡的女孩
an Extraordinary girl 一个不平凡的女孩

Letter Bomb 信件炸弹
              AUG.18th       8月18日

Nobody likes you... 没人喜欢你
Everyone left you... 谁都像抛弃你
They're all out without you... 他们所有所有的人都离你而去
Having fun... 去找乐子

dear J 亲爱的吉米

Where have all the bastards gone? 那些混蛋们都去了哪里
The underbelly stacks up ten high 我的下腹部已经高高隆起
The dummy failed the crash test 汽车碰撞试验失败了
Collecting unemployment checks 去收集着失业救济单吧
Like a flunkie along for a ride 你只是一个失败者

Where have all the riots gone 这些暴徒都死去了哪里
As your city's model gets pulverized? 像你的城市模型一般倒塌了吗
What's in love is now in debt
On your birth certificate       你的出生证明上写着:已成为债的来源
So strike the fucking match to light this fuse! 毁掉这一切,烧掉保险丝

The town bishop is an extortionist 这个镇子的主教是个骗子
And he don't even know that you exist 他甚至不知道你的的存在
Standing still when it's do or die 旁观一切的发生和毁灭
You better run for your fucking life 你最好为你他妈的生命逃跑

It's not over 'till you're underground 在你到地下之前这不会结束
It's not over before it's too late 毁灭之前这不会结束
It's cities burnin' 城市燃烧着
It's not my burden 不是我的责任
It's not over before it's too late 在毁灭之前这一切不会结束

There's nothing left to analyze 你的杂志上什么也没又留下

Where will all the martyrs go when the virus cures itself? 病自己自愈前那些病人去哪了
And where will we all go when it's too late? 毁灭之前我们能去哪

And don't look back 总之不要回头

You're not the Jesus of Suburbia 你不是郊外的耶稣
The St. Jimmy is a figment of
Your father's rage and your mother's love 圣·吉米只不过是你父亲的恨与你母亲的爱的产物
Made me the idiot America 白痴美国是我的创造者

It's not over 'till you're underground 在你到地下之前这不会结束
It's not over before it's too late 毁灭之前这不会结束
It's cities burnin' 城市燃烧着
It's not my burden 不是我的责任
It's not over before it's too late 在毁灭之前这一切不会结束

She said I can't take this place 她说我带不下这个地方
I'm leaving it behind 我要将它抛在身后

Well she said I can't take this town 她说我带不下这个镇
I'm leaving you tonight 今晚我要离你而去

这首歌是Whatsername写给Jimmy的告别信,明确指出了St.jimmy的真实身份---他是Jimmy的黑暗人格,是他父亲的RAGE和他母亲的LOVE交织的产物.

becoming who we are 终于 我们发现了真正的自己
as my memory rests 就算我的记忆停歇
but never forgets what I lost 我也不会忘记我所失去的
wake me up when september ends 九月结束时 请记得唤醒我

wake me up when september ends 九月结束时 请记得唤醒我


wake me up这一曲最有意思.大家对她的讨论已经脱离了专辑所要表现的故事内容. 没错,这是billie借机表现对父亲的怀念的,他的父亲死于1982年9月,而当时billie只有十岁. 其中的一句歌词7 years has gone so fast用的别有深意.1982年billie的父亲死去,7年后也就是1989年,正是他已green day身份组队出头的一年. 而这一曲wake me up写于2002年,于1982正好相差了20年... 这也就印证了那句20 years has gone so fast的歌词. 当然老美的看法也很有意思,他们认为这首歌是写给billie的儿子约瑟夫的,因为billie自己当上了爸爸所以就想起了他爸爸.
其实这首歌真正要表现的主题,我认为还是反战.那就是纪念在9.11事件中死去的人们.希望这样悲惨的事件赶快过去,希望悲剧不要重演.

后话:

  耸动的专辑名称“American Idiot(美国白痴)”,搭配着专辑封面,可以察觉出Green Day对现在政治、社会、世界问题等乱象,有着极度的不满。新专辑封面,以一个手持淌血的心型手榴弹图腾,将反战主义毫无保留的呈现出来!新专辑的上市,无疑是对“大美国主义”,重重的甩了一记耳光!Green Day在新专辑中想要表达的讯息,也已获得美国年轻人的支持,同名单曲“American Idiot (美国大白痴)”早已攻上全美现代摇滚榜上亚军宝座!再次证明Green Day闯荡江湖十余载,仍是宝刀未老。

  除了话题性不断的首发单曲之外,在新专辑中,Green Day将一个新的概念“摇滚歌剧”,带入了朋克摇滚之中,结合朋克重击,毫无掩饰的钢琴琴音及音乐剧里欢喜的气氛,首次尝试长达9分钟的史诗创作,来传递敏感的政治问题、宗教问题、以及地球上一切的爱恨情仇;在火力全开的摇滚节奏中,同时也带来最深的沉思,一直秉持70年代朋克乐展露头角之始的敢怒敢言精神。
