Alec Benjamin - Steve 史帝夫

擁有得再多
仍填不滿內心的空虛
多麼輕易忘記
手裡有的早該足夠了

I know the Bible isn't perfect
我知道聖經並不完美
Cause it left one person out
因為少了一個人物
There was Adam, there was Eve
除了亞當、夏娃
And there was someone else around
還有另一個人
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
我想他叫史帝夫
And he was passing through town
同樣是園裡的訪客

When he heard a snake a-whispering
當他聽見園裡的蛇
To Adam in the garden
對亞當低語
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
「吃顆果子,那對你有益」
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
史帝夫說:「不好意思
I know it's not my business
我知道不關我的事
But will you just hear me out?"
但你是否能聽我說?」

He said, "I wouldn't lie
他說:「我可不會說謊
You should not go to that tree
你不該去樹下
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
蛇知道那是善惡樹的果
Oh, you want what you can't have
你只是渴望自己不能擁有的
But you've got all the things you need"
但你早擁有所需要的一切
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
園子裡除了亞當、夏娃,還有史帝夫
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
他說:「亞當,可別被蛇給唬了
Don't risk it all for a taste
別為了一小口犧牲全部
Oh, what a waste
多可惜
To have everything and give it all away"
賠上擁有的一切

Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
亞當與命運搏鬥時環顧四週
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
史帝夫和夏娃捲起袖子和蛇拼命
In the midst of all the chaos
混亂之中
Steve was still screaming out
史帝夫仍大喊著

He said, "I wouldn't lie
他說:「我可不會唬你
You should not go to that tree
你不該去樹那
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
蛇知道果子是來自善惡樹
Oh, you want what you can't have
你渴望自己所沒有的
But you've got all the things you need"
但是你已經擁有了需要的一切
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
園子裡除了亞當、夏娃,還有史帝夫

He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
他說:「亞當,別中了蛇的計
Don't risk it all for a taste
別為了雞毛蒜皮犧牲所有
Oh, what a waste
會是多麼可惜
To have everything and give it all away"
放棄手中擁有的一切」

Sometimes I feel like Adam
有時感覺自己有如亞當
Cause I've got more than I need
我擁有的早超過所需要的
But even when I have it all
即使擁有了全世界
I want what's out of reach
依然渴望世界以外
Maybe I should learn my lesson
或許我該學到教訓
Like Steve was talking to me
宛如史帝夫在旁勸戒

He said, "I wouldn't lie
他說:「真心不騙
You should not go to that tree
你不該去樹那
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
蛇知道那是善惡樹結的禁果
Oh, you want what you can't have
你渴望本身沒有的
But you've got all the things you need"
卻早擁有所需的一切
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
園裡除了亞當、夏娃,還有史帝夫

He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
他說:「亞當,別信了蛇的話
Don't risk it all for a taste
別為了一丁點犧牲全盤
Oh, what a waste
會是多麼可惜
To have everything and give it all away"
將手中擁有的通通放棄」



有時我們就是學不乖、長不大,但到頭來沒有人躲得了、可以不為自己的行為負責。
