【David Byrne】Psychedelic Afternoon


Ryuichi Sakamoto/Psychedelic afternoon

Grandpa swore he’d never cut his hair-in ’67
Going on a trip to Grandpa’s farm — the hippie commune
He don’t even watch TV at all — so weird
But my grandpa’s cool with me,

Mama says that granpa is naive –from too much trippin’
Grandpa even sang his songs for free–at the demonstration
All the Punks and Yuppie Scum they laugh–at him

Psychedelic Afternoon
Let’s all sing a hippie tune
I will sing my song for you
That grandpa taught to me.

We saw a shooting star from on a hill–across the heavens
The real reality is just unreal–in my opinion
Laughing Dancing Joking Talking all–the time
And my grandpa’s cool with me

丘の上から、満天の星空に流れ星を見たよね
本当にリアルなものってリアルには見えない
まあ、僕の意見だけど
いつも笑って踊って冗談を言い、話し出すと止まらなかったけど
僕にとっては、とてもクールなお祖父さんだったんだ
