每次当这句“ COME AND SING A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM” 在耳畔想起,眼前就会出现电影《Beyond the Sea》里面的镜头,由Kevin Spacey 扮演的Bobby Darin 重返最初成名的夜总会,演唱起这首酝酿已久反复修改的歌曲,从旋转楼梯上同时走下一排身穿金色长袍的伴舞者,是那种黑人教堂很流行的演绎方式,而现场的观众也从惊诧后的无声到如痴如醉。最煽情的是最后他终于把他的母亲介绍给大家,让他的母亲从此走出了“姐姐”的角色。这首歌其实是首反战歌曲,但因为剧情的缘故,总会让我听得泪流满面。

 

歌词如下:

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

HEY THERE, MISTER BLACK MAN,
CAN YOU HEAR ME?
I DON`T WANT YOUR DIAMONDS OR YOUR GAME.
I JUST WANT TO BE SOMEONE
KNOWN TO YOU AS ME
AND I WILL BET MY LIFE
YOU WANT THE SAME.

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

SEVEN HUNDRED MILLION,
ARE YOU LIST'NING?
MOST OF WHAT YOU READ IS MADE OF LIES.
BUT SPEAKING ONE TO ONE,
AIN`T IT EV'RYBODY`S SUN
TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING WHEN WE RISE?

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

BROTHER YEVTOSHENKO,
ARE YOU BUSY?
IF NOT, WON'T YOU DROP A FRIEND A LINE
AND TELL ME IF THE MAN
WHO IS PLOWING UP YOUR LAND
HAS GOT THE WAR MACHINE UPON HIS MIND.

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.

NO DOUBT SOME FOLKS ENJOY DOING BATTLE,
LIKE PRESIDENTS,
PRIME MINISTERS AND KINGS.
SO LET US BUILD THEM SHELVES
WHERE THEY CAN FIGHT AMONG THEMSELVES
AND LEAVE THE PEOPLE BE WHO LIKE TO SING.

COME AND SING
A SIMPLE SONG OF FREEDOM.
SING IT LIKE YOU NEVER SUNG BEFORE.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV`RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.
LET IT FILL THE AIR,
TELL PEOPLE EV'RYWHERE
THAT WE, THE PEOPLE HERE,
DON`T WANT A WAR.
