James - Getting Away With It (All Messed Up)



Are you aching for the blade
That's o.k.
We're insured
Are you aching for the grave
That's o.k.
We're insured

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

Daniel's saving Grace
She's out in deep water
Hope he's a good swimmer

Daniel plays his ace
Deep inside his temple
He knows how to serve her

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living

Daniel drinks his weight
Drinks like Richard Burton
Dance like John Travolta, now.

Daniel's saving Grace
He was all but drowning
Now they live like dolphins

We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living
We're getting away with it all messed up
Getting away with it all messed up
That's the living
Getting away with it
Getting away with it
That's the living
That's the living

最近開始覺得生活周遭總是存在一些讓人腦袋混亂的事物,每天一堆固定報到的垃圾信、看不完的廣告信、擋不住的資訊傳遞,十幾年前我那時仍在網路公司所預見的事,如今都已成真一一出現而成為社會隱憂。但相對的對於生活上的美好追求卻離我們越來越遠,政府到處防範人民作亂逃漏法治,但往往卻對財團主事者一籌莫展,因為這些有錢者坐擁的資源最多,當然各種管道也最多。

對於James這團,一直停留在當年他們剛崛起的一些單曲,但這首在2001年發表的單曲,卻讓我在十年後才真正聽出它的感動之處,也讓這首歌成為最近手機裡經常播放的歌曲,也經常邊聽邊哼著起來,推薦給仍在為生活奔波的人們。
