[00:00:00] Baal's Hymn (Der Choral Vom Großen Baal) (2017 Remastered Version) - David Bowie (大卫·鲍伊)

[00:00:01] Written by：Bertholt Brecht/Dominic Muldowney

[00:00:12] Whilst his mother's womb contained the growing Baal

[00:00:17] Even then the sky was waiting quiet and pale

[00:00:20] Naked young immensely marvellous

[00:00:24] Like Baal loved it when he came to us

[00:00:29] That same sky remained with him in joy and care

[00:00:33] Even when Baal slept peaceful and unaware

[00:00:37] At night a lilac sky a drunken Baal

[00:00:41] Turning pious as the sky grows pale

[00:00:46] So through hospital cathedral whiskey bar

[00:00:49] Baal kept moving onwards and just let things go

[00:00:53] When Baal's tired boys Baal cannot fall far

[00:00:57] He will have his sky down there below

[00:01:09] When the sinners congregate in shame together

[00:01:13] Baal lay naked revelling in their distress

[00:01:16] Only sky a sky that will go on forever

[00:01:20] Formed a blanket for his nakedness

[00:01:24] And that lusty girl the world who'll laughing yield

[00:01:27] To the men who'll stand the pressure of her thighs

[00:01:31] Sometimes gave him love-bites such as can't be healed

[00:01:35] Baal survived it he just used his eyes

[00:01:39] And when Baal saw lots of corpses scattered round

[00:01:42] He felt twice the thrill despite the lack of room

[00:01:46] Space enough said Baal then I'll thicken the ground

[00:01:49] Space enough within this woman's womb

[00:02:06] Any vice for Baal has got its useful side

[00:02:09] It's the man who practices it he can't abide

[00:02:12] Vices have their point once you see it as such

[00:02:15] Stick to two for one will be too much

[00:02:19] Slackness softness are the sort of things to shun

[00:02:22] Nothing could be harder than the quest for fun

[00:02:25] Lots of strength is needed and experience too

[00:02:29] Swollen bellies can embarrass you

[00:02:41] Under gloomy stars and this poor veil of tears

[00:02:45] Baal will graze a pasture till it disappears

[00:02:49] Once it's been digested to the forest's teeth

[00:02:52] Baal trod singing for a well earned sleep

[00:02:56] Baal can spot the vultures in the stormy sky

[00:03:00] As they wait up there to see if Baal will die

[00:03:04] Sometimes Baal pretends he's dead but vultures swoop

[00:03:07] Baal in silence dines on vulture soup

[00:03:11] When the dark womb drags him down to its prize

[00:03:15] What's the world still mean to Baal he's overfed

[00:03:19] So much sky is lurking still behind his eyes

[00:03:22] He'll just have enough sky when he's dead

[00:03:39] Once the earth's dark womb engulfed the rotting Baal

[00:03:43] Even then the sky was up there quiet and pale

[00:03:47] Naked young immensely marvellous

[00:03:53] Like Baal loved it when he lived with us
