[Chinese]

寧願 什麼都不要 就是別煩我

而我 已經不想再 霸着這寶座

讓我走 我已經唱悶了

對角色入座 談失戀的怨歌

寧願 什麼都不愛 為着別難過

何況 再表演心痛 也沒有幫助

做到的 我已經也做過

每晚出席陪坐 而你心中亦無我

明知苦得很 何必犧牲到那樣深

做個悲慘世界的代言人 如何能自命榮幸

泥足這麼深 何不早一秒來解困

再別看 誰人與你 熱吻

...

人家 或者很喜愛 為浪漫而錯

而我 徹底的知錯 拒絕再飛墮

若你所 賜我的眼淚 未能榮耀我

何妨冷靜下台 泡沫自行敲破

明知苦得很 何必犧牲到那樣深

做個悲慘世界的代言人 如何能自命榮幸

泥足這麼深 何不早一秒來解困

脫下這名銜 再另尋合襯

誰說訂了合約 為你傷心

明知苦得很 何必犧牲到那樣深

做了悲慘世界的代言人 還懷疑被鍍了金

泥足這麼深 何不早一秒來解困

放下你猶如 戒了 毒癮

...
