LMF 國際人渣 Lyrics English Translation

LMF - 國際人渣 (International Scum) English Translation

Chinese lyrics: YinyueABC
English translation by z.ky. Do not reproduce without permission.

One human life, one bullet, scum
One plan, one bomb, scum
Your clever plans cause suffering and misery
You get to mess around
No one has a choice
One nation, one principle, scum
One big country, one excuse, scum
Even having grown up here, you get smashed to pieces
Even if you're in charge,
It's not your turn to mess around

Humanity, a couple thousand years; civilization, war, destruction, never stopped
If it's not me attacking you, you're attacking me
History's lessons have never been absorbed
How come once something happens
People with guns come in to keep the order
Keeping other people's order
After planning in advance, sitting down, discussing; going on to beat people, frame people
Lots of innocent people have been condemned
Right and wrong, black and white, can't it be defined again?
All that remains is a line of grey area
So many differing intentions, ideas which can't be agreed upon
Contradictory conflicts, gathering prevents change of mind
Seems impossible, but they have the most excuses
A big Western country still standing, cheating Iraqi oil
America still has the world's biggest weapons industry
So, we have reasons to hate you
You're still mouthing off
One human life, one bullet, scum
One plan, one bomb, scum
Your clever plans cause suffering and misery
You get to mess around
No one has a choice
One nation, one principle, scum
One big country, one excuse, scum
Even having grown up here, you get smashed to pieces
Even if you're in charge,
It's not your turn to mess around

Anthrax damages, but probably not as much as Coca-Cola
The invasions of military bases on all four sides
May not be as lowly as all of the McDonald's
Which is the one who wants to invade this world?
Which is the one who wants to take over this world?
Doesn't a big country still need basic manners
Not bombing someone's embassy
You tell me whether an apology is needed
Can't even buy a Cuban cigar
Microsoft's monopolizing technique is like robbery
The Waco siege
The Rodney King case
The Amadou Diallo case
The hanging of people
Within these many cases, can we learn from them:
Nothing is ever as simple as it looks
There's more than one side to the story
No matter how big a country is, it has its problems
Expand your vision and look at things more objectively
Don't just think about money
Like an ignorant imbecile
"The Ugly Chinaman and the Crisis of Chinese Culture", buy a copy and read it
One human life, one bullet, scum
One plan, one bomb, scum
Your clever plans cause suffering and misery
You get to mess around
No one has a choice
One nation, one principle, scum
One big country, one excuse, scum
Even having grown up here, you get smashed to pieces
Even if you're in charge,
It's not your turn to mess around

One human life, one bullet, scum
One plan, one bomb, scum
Your clever plans cause suffering and misery
You get to mess around
No one has a choice
One nation, one principle, scum
One big country, one excuse, scum
Even having grown up here, you get smashed to pieces
Even if you're in charge,
It's not your turn to mess around

*repeat once
