Making Boots for the Emperor
Every one was living in peace
He got a funny cloth and boots
His prity wife become a queen
She thought they needed more blood
(We were fighting?
No, we were drinking
We were drinking with a strange man)
He fought for glory
With the strongest soldiers
We believed his greatness
We ran for the freedom
But we didn't notice
Queen has no heart
(Yeah I remember
The man loves boots more than any woman)
Riding horse all day long
The emperor turned into a queen
His wishes were becoming pain
It was the end of the reign
(Oh the boots!
The boots are looking at me
No! I don't need that hat
Boots! All I want is you)
Sloughter, the queen sharpens her knife
She had no justice
Someday she kills us
She hates the graceness
She grieve at our pureness
(So the queen grabbed her knife
His boots were slained by her
Though we made the boots for the emperor
We were reigned by her knife)
It's not sad story
He was falling in love with the boots
We liked his silly hat
Shining likesun rise
And now we livein pain
(Ooh, the boots
boots
where are you my boots?
I need you
I can't live without you)
Is anybody understand it?
There's no meaning at all
Oooo... Oooo.....
「皇帝に長靴を作る」
みんなは平和に暮らしておった
ヤツはへんてこな服と長靴を手に入れた
ヤツのカワイイ嫁さんは女王様になった
彼女はわしらがもっと血を求めていると思ったんじゃ
(わしらが戦ってたじゃと?
違うね。わしらは呑んでたんじゃ。
おかしな男と一緒にな)
ヤツは栄光のために戦った
そりゃあ強い兵隊たちと
わしらはヤツの偉大さを信じとった
わしらは自由のために走ったんじゃ
でもわしらは気付かなかった
女王様が冷酷じゃということに
(ああ、覚えとるよ
ヤツはどんな女よりも長靴を愛してたなあ)
一日中馬に乗って
皇帝は女王様になっちまった
ヤツの望みは苦痛にかわっちまった
それで支配は終わったんじゃ
(ああ、ああ、長靴!長靴がわしを見とるよ。
違う!そんな帽子はいらん!
長靴よ!わしの望みはお前だけじゃ!)
虐殺
女王様はナイフを研ぐ
彼女に正義はない
いつの日かわしらを抹殺するじゃろう
寛大さを嫌い
わしらの純粋さを嘆いとる
(それで女王はナイフをつかんだ
ヤツの長靴は切り刻まれちまった
わしらが皇帝のために長靴を作っても
わしらはナイフに支配されることになっちまったんだ)
ヤツが長靴に恋しても
これは悲しい話じゃあない
わしらはヤツの、朝日のように輝く
バカげた帽子が好きだった
そんでわしらは今、苦痛の中に生きとるよ
(ああ、長靴よ、長靴よ。
どこにいるのじゃ、わしの長靴よ。
キミなしでは生きられんのじゃ)
誰か理解できたかのう?
全然意味のない話だったけども
