他們說他們是文明的
因為他們知道如何拿斧鋸
來砍伐樹木，以供人製器利用
他們說他們是文明的
因為他們知道如何拿刀槍，製作陷阱
來獵取禽獸，以供人宰殺食用
他們說他們是文明的
因為他們知道如何拿藥物
來繁殖牲畜和農作物，使長得更快更好看
他們說他們是文明的
因為他們知道如何想方設法
抓取財富和權利，圖謀自己的享受和榮耀
他們說他們是文明的
因為他們知道如何發明最新武器
來發動戰爭，征服別的國家
他們一往直前，力求達到目的
可是會造成什麼結果和副作用
他們卻一概不管，隨心所欲地施為
他們說他們是文明的
沒錯，他們很聰明，是文明的
因為他們說他們是文明的
They Say They Are Civilized Hsu ChiCheng
They say they are civilized
Because they know how to use saws and axes
To fell trees, for people’s utility
They say they are civilized
Because they know how to take up arms, how to set a trap
To capture birds and animals, for people’s food
They say they are civilized
Because they know how to use medicines or herbs
To propagate domestic animals and crops, to make them grow quicker and fairer
They say they are civilized
Because they know how by hook or crook
To get power and wealth, to get their glory and enjoyment
They say they are civilized
Because they know how to invent new weapons
To wage a war, to conquer other countries
They walk a straight line, striving to achieve the goal
As for the results and side effects
They care nothing, and they do whatever they like
They say they are civilized
Yes, they are intelligent, and civilized
Because they say they are civilized
