Keep IT Simple 歌詞

我喜歡的歌手之一Van Morrison,最近(四月)推出的專輯,就名為「Keep it Simple」,你可到Van Morrison的官方網站聽這首歌的Audio Clip。

「Keep IT Simple」碰巧也是REBOL的Slogan,只不過這裡的IT要大寫,表示「Information Technologies」(資訊科技)的意思。IT往往搞得過度複雜,而REBOL正致力於破除這一點。

我把這首歌的歌詞改編如下,希望能在下次REBOL DevCon時登台演唱這首歌(I am just kidding):

Keep IT Simple

原創:Van Morrison
改編:Jerry Tsai

They mocked me when I was singing the songs
Trying to go forward to something more simple than we have
They mocked me ‘cos I told it like it was

Wrote about slowness and monolith
Wrote about what we really didn’t need in our code
Make us work like a horse

Dream software systems on the one hand
And straight reality is always cold
Blame it on the programming language
It’s not your fault at all

Mocked me when it got out of hand
Nobody tried to understand
Now we got to keep it simple and that’s that

Dream software systems on the one hand
And straight reality is always cold
Blame it on the programming language
It’s not your fault at all

Can’t find the bugs while I am writing code
It happens many times before
Hay, we got to keep it simple to save ourselves

Mocked me when I tried to go forward
Said the train was completely off the track
And we got to go forward to something simple to save ourselves

Whoa we got to leave .NET for REBOL just to save yourselves
Well got to leave Java for REBOL just to save yourselves
Well you got to keep it simple, keep it simple just to - and that’s that

Whoa you got to keep it simple nowadays and that’s just that
Whoa you got to keep it simple nowadays and that’s just the way it is
And you got to keep it simple these days ‘cos that’s the way it is

Well you got to keep it, keep it simple and that’s that
