Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

聽你講嘢聽到忟

Listening to your words makes me feel hurt.

用你的特殊技能扮中肯

Using your special skills to pretend to be sincere.

錯就錯在已被禁

The mistake was being banned in the first place.

欠公允倒退的厄運

The unfair setbacks and misfortune.

真相早已失了蹤

The truth has already gone missing.

任你作偏頗劇情是空洞

Let you create biased stories, but they're hollow.

沒對話信任已斷送

No real words, trust is already lost.

你喜愛妖言惑眾 經已看通

You love spreading rumors, I've seen through it all.

Tell me what 柒 you say

Tell me what you say.

還擺出高姿態你講撚夠未

Still putting on a high and mighty attitude, have you said enough?

最重要是過程缺乏証明

Most importantly, the process lacks proof.

靠左耳穿過右耳 尖叫哭聲

Eavesdropping with one ear, screams and crying.

Tell me what 柒 you say

Tell me what you say.

良心一早已失去抹黑口耳鼻

My conscience has long since been lost, smearing mouth, ears, and nose.

要是暗淡世情有日放晴

If dark times in the world ever clear up someday.

你知我知佢知也知一臉莫明

You, I, and they all know, but still look confused.

人話 能猶如童話

People say it’s like a fairy tale.

人人如神話 人人人無差

Everyone is like a myth, everyone is the same.

人人同情他 無人能明他

Everyone sympathizes with him, but nobody truly understands him.

人人人人話我話

Everyone, everyone talks about me.
