Elvis Costello & The Attractions - (What’s So Funny ’Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding

Armed Forces (1979)

As I walk through this wicked world
Searching for light in the darkness of insanity
I ask myself is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred and misery?
この邪悪な現代を歩きながら
狂気の闇の中で光を探している
希望はどこにあるんだ？
あるのは痛みと憎しみと惨めさだけなのか

And each time I feel like this inside
There’s one thing I want to know
What’s so funny ‘bout peace, love and understanding?
Oh, what’s so funny ‘bout peace, love and understanding?
一つだけ教えてくれないか
平和や愛や相互理解のどこがおかしいんだよ？

And as I walked on through troubled times
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
So where are the strong? And who are the trusted?
And where is the harmony? Sweet harmony
困難な時代を生きてると
ひどく落ち込む事だってある
強さはどこへ行った？
信頼できるものは誰だ？
調和はどこへ行ったんだ

‘Cause each time I feel it slipping away
Just makes me want to cry
What’s so funny ‘bout peace, love and understanding?
Oh, what’s so funny ‘bout peace, love and understanding?
落ちそうになると泣き叫びたくなる
平和や愛や相互理解のどこがおかしいんだよ？
