Текст песни Double Pleasure (Chilled C'Quence) с переводом

— Excuse me.

— Excuse me.

— Hey. Could we do that again? I know we haven’t met, but I don’t want to be an

ant, you know?

I mean, it’s like we go through life with our antennas bouncing off one another,

continuously on ant auto-pilot with nothing really human required of us.

Stop. Go. Walk here. Drive there. All action basically for survival.

All communication simply to keep this ant colony buzzing along in an efficient

polite manner.

«Here's your change.»

I don’t want a straw, I want real human moments.

I want to see you. I want you to see me. I don’t want to give that up.

I don’t want to be an ant, you know?

I want to see you. I want you to see me. I don’t want to give that up.

— Yeah. Yeah, no. I don’t want to be an ant either. Heh. Yeah, thanks for kind

of jostling me there.

I’ve been kind of on zombie auto-pilot lately, I don’t feel like an ant in my

head, but I guess I probably look like one.

It’s kind of like D.H. Lawrence had this idea of two people meeting on a road.

And instead of just passing and glancing away, they decide to accept what he

calls «the confrontation between their souls.»

It’s like, um, freeing the brave reckless gods within us all.

— Then it’s like we have met.

(They shake hands)

(Same two people talking in a room.)

— So it has a lot to do with choices and honoring people’s ability to say what

it is that they wanna see,

and also consumerism and art and commodity, and if you don’t like what you got,

then you can send it back,

or you get what you pay for, or just participating, just really making choices.

So, you wanna do it?

— Uh, yeah, yeah, that sounds really cool. I’d love to be in it, but, um …

Uh, I kind of gotta ask you a question first though. I don’t really know how to

say it, but, um, uh,

what’s it like to be a character in a dream? 'Cause, uh, I’m not awake right

now.

And I haven’t even worn a watch since, like, fourth grade. I think this is the

same watch too.

Um, uh, yeah, I don’t even know if you’re able to answer that question,

but I’m just trying to get like a sense of where I am and what’s going on.

— So what about you? What’s your name? What’s your address?

What are you doing?

— I, I, you know, I can’t really remember right now. I can’t really,

I can’t really recall that.

But that’s beside the point, whether or not I can dredge up this information

about, you know, my address, or,

you know, my mom’s maiden name, or whatnot. I’ve got the benefit in this

reality, if you wanna call that,

of a consistent perspective.

— What is your consistent perspective?

— It's mostly just me dealing with a lot of people who are exposing me to

information and ideas that seem vaguely familiar,

but, at the same time, it’s all very alien to me. I’m not in an objective,

rational world. Like I’ve been flying around.

Uh … I don’t know. It’s weird too because it’s not like a fixed state,

it’s more like this whole spectrum of awareness.

Like the lucidity wavers. Like, right now, I know that I’m dreaming, right?

We’re, like, even talking about it.

This is the most in myself and in my thoughts that I’ve been so far.

I’m talking about being in a dream.

But, I’m beginning to think that it’s something that I don’t really have any

precedent for.

It’s, it’s totally unique. The, the quality of, of the environment and the

information that I’m receiving.
