人活得好好的,為什麼要去撿球根呢……?


OK,標題不是重點。

今天雖是個大晴天,但氣溫卻相當的舒適宜人,如果要與朋友家人結伴出遊,那肯定是沒有比今天更適合的日子了。
所以我今天又出去玩了嗎?沒有。

我頂著超大的一顆太陽,耳裡掛著耳機,全身上下都是紅土,或跪或蹲的在爛泥巴裡撿著似乎永遠也撿不完的球根…
因為要挖出埋在土壤中的球根,雙手的手套都磨破了,大腿也因為持續的活動而隱隱作痛,口乾舌燥不說,腰也酸得不得了…

不過這也不是重點。

那重點到底是啥?
我在工作時,耳中忽然傳來了John Lennon的Working Class Hero這首歌。
又忽然發覺我現在正是所謂的「藍領階層」。
這算是最傳統的Working Class Hero吧?
嗯…這真是有趣。

另一齣故事在我腦海深處蠢蠢欲動。
我好像有那麼點靈感了?

另外,我必須說,我好像有點越陷越深的感覺…
這不太好,對我來說這很沒安全感,我還是謹守本份就好。
嗯…沒頭沒尾的,不過大概也就這樣。

John Lennon - Working Class Hero

Lyric:
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules

A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear

A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and class less and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see

A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill

A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
