甜甜圈生活

英國左翼歌手Billy Bragg的”From Red To Blue”　

主要是在說當我們從理想青年變成社會現實的人後,
是否我們就背棄了年輕時的理想.

為弱勢爭取的理想(在英國 紅黨是工黨 藍黨是保守黨) 
但不論我們選擇了哪個永遠不要放棄自己的權利
我們總是能改變什麼的，也許自己的良心居多。
 就像米蘭昆德拉說的 『假如我們不能改變世界，那至少應該改變我們的生活，自由自在的活著…』 Another day dawns grey, its enough to make me spit But we go on our way, just putting up with it And when I try to make my feelings known to you You sound like you have changed from red to blue You're a father now, you see things in different ways For every parent will gain perspective on their wilder days But that alone does not explain the changes I see in you The way you've drifted off from red to blue Sometimes I think to myself Should I vote red for my class or green for our children? But whatever choice I make I will not forsake So you bought it all, the best your money could buy And I watched you sell your soul for their bright shining lie Where are the principles of the friend I thought I knew I guess you let them fade from red to blue I hate the compromises that life forces us to make We must all bend a little if we are not to break But the ideals you've opted out of, I still hold them to be true I guess they weren't so firmly held by you
