[00:00.00] 作词 : Paddy Chayefsky
[06:26.52] I don't have to tell you things are bad.
[06:28.37] Everybody knows things are bad.
[06:29.96] The dollar buys a nickel's worth.
[06:31.92] Banks are going bust.
[06:33.13] Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter.
[06:35.21] There's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do,
[06:36.85] and there's no end to it.
[06:38.18] We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat,
[06:42.95] and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that
[06:46.35] today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes,
[06:49.94] as if that's the way it's supposed to be.
[06:51.72]
[06:51.92] We know things are bad — worse than bad.
[06:54.53] They're crazy.
[06:55.43] It's like everything everywhere is going crazy,
[06:57.23] so we don't go out anymore.
[06:58.87] We sit in the house,
[06:59.87] and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller,
[07:02.24] and all we say is:
[07:02.94] 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms.
[07:05.91] Let me have my toaster, my TV,
[07:07.60] my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything.
[07:10.36] Just leave us alone.'
[07:11.37] Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone.
[07:13.56] I want you to get MAD!
[07:16.02] I don't want you to protest.
[07:16.92] I don't want you to riot —
[07:17.88] I don't want you to write to your congressman,
[07:19.48] because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write.
[07:21.28] I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation
[07:23.58] and the Russians and the crime in the street.
[07:25.19] All I know is that first you've got to get mad.
[07:28.30] You've got to say:
[07:28.90] 'I'm a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!'
[07:32.93]
[09:16.93] So, I want all of you to get up out of your chairs.
[09:20.55] I want you to get up right now and go to the window.
[09:24.08] Open it, and stick your head out, and yell:
[09:27.48] I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!
[09:31.48]
