溫室效應
自從在溫室裡
培養出不朽的塑膠花
使春天過敏的鼻腔不再發癢
自命為上帝的人類
便處心積慮
要用不銹鋼
打造一個
空前絕後的嶄新世界
你看呼呼作響的火爐
正越燒越旺
温室效应
自从在温室里
培养出不朽的塑胶花
使春天过敏的鼻腔不再发痒
自命为上帝的人类
便处心积虑
要用不锈钢
打造一个
空前绝後的崭新世界
你看呼呼作响的火炉
正越烧越旺
Ever since
producing successfully in a greenhouse
the everlasting
plastic flowers
which would make
no allergic nose itch
man, the
self-proclaimed Creator
has undertaken to
build
a brand-new world
of stainless
steel
Look at that
blast furnace
it’s burning wild

Greenhouse Effect
Since immortal
plastic flowers were developed
In the greenhouse
Allergic noses do
not itch in spring
The humans who
considered themselves God
Scheme
incessantly
To forge
An unprecedented
and unrepeatable brand-new world
You see the
roaring oven
Is burning ever
hotter
