The Playboy Mansion

The mansion is a hedonistic place where wild parties filled with celebrities and beautiful women are legendary.
The Playboy Mansion is used to symbolize the vanity and materialism prevalent in America.
Some of the lyrics mention Michael Jackson and his many plastic surgeries.
The working title was 'Hymn To Mr. Universe.'
花花公子豪宅用來象徵著盛行美國的物質主義和虛榮。這所豪宅實屬享樂主義者之地，要說有名的還是這
如果可樂是種奧義（這裡可樂喻指美國流行文化）
裡擠滿名流與美女的瘋狂派對。
歌裡一些歌詞提及了Michael Jackson和他整容的事兒。
邁克爾杰克遜是歷史
這首歌之前的名字是“宇宙先生之頌”
如果美是真理
If Coke is a mystery
整容手術是青春之源

我該做什麼
Michael Jackson...History
我是否已能夠
If beauty is truth
進入豪宅大門（這裡歌者藉消費品，流行文化，所謂讓我們成為人的科學，表達對物質主義的保守批判）
And surgery the fountain of youth
What am I to do
如果橙汁不只是飲料
Have I got the gift to get me through
The gates of that mansion
巨無霸比你想得還大

如果香水讓人著迷
If OJ is more than a drink
脫口秀成了信仰的表陳
（OJ：orange juice）
我們又已失去了什麼
And a Big Mac bigger than you think
人推人
If perfume is an obsession
我們就會穿過豪宅大門（OJ，Big Mac同樣指流行文化，香水指奢侈品，脫口秀暗諷人們已將痛苦販賣成演出，流行文化趨勢
And talk shows, confession
下，大家都不自覺朝著一個方向走）
What have we got to lose
Another push and we'll be through
我從不買彩票
The gates of that mansion
也從不把車停在別人的地盤

銀行就像是教堂

我想不久賭場就會取代它們的位置（這裡歌者以正義者自居，從個人憤慨轉向社會，道出人人信仰缺失，賭場指人們將信仰寄託於賭，靠賭
I never bought a Lotto ticket
冒險行事）
I never parked in anyone's space
The banks feel like cathedrals
愛，快來吧！
I guess casinos took their place
當我醒來，她就會來到我身邊

運氣就是一種宗教

你只有在倒霉時才會相信
Luck, come on down!
我的確沒看過那部片子
I wake up, she'll come around…
我確實也沒看過那本書
Chance is a kind of religion
愛，快來吧！
Where you're damned for plain hard luck
讓我的民眾甦醒！
I never did see that movie
沒把握我能堅持
I never did read that book
不知曉我是否那麼強大
Love, come on down
更不知我能等那麼長
Let my numbers come around
直到旗幟飄揚
Don't know if I can hold on
燈光依舊
Don't know if I'm that strong
那時就沒時間悲傷
Don't know if I can wait that long
那時就沒必要感到羞恥
'Til the colours come flashing
儘管我不能說出原因
And the lights go on
我知道我只能選擇相信
Then will there be no time for sorrow
我們會開車一頭栽進那個泳池
Then will there be no time for shame
正是你知曉的人
And though I can't say why
帶你進入花花公子豪宅的大門
I know I've got to believe
但他們從不提苦痛
We'll go driving in that pool
那時就沒時間悲傷
It's who you know that gets you through
那時就沒必要感到羞恥
The gates of the Playboy mansion
那時就沒時間悲傷
But they don't mention...the pain
那時就沒必要感到羞恥（同化了，可喜可悲）
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
