Pastime Paradies

Stevie Wonder

Transposer:

(x3) They've been spending most their lives, living in a Pastime Paradise. They've been spending most their lives, living in a Pastime Paradise. They've been wasting most their time, Glori-fying days long gone behind. They've been wasting most their days, In re-membrance of ignorance oldest praise. Tell me... Who of them, will come to be? How ma-ny of them, are you and me? Dissi-pation, race re-lations. Conso-lation, segre-gation. Dispen-sation, iso-lation, exploi-tation, muti-lation. Mu-tations, miscre-ation, confir-mation, to the evil's of the world. They've been spending most their lives, living in the future paradise. They've been spending most their lives, living in the future paradise. They've been looking in their minds, For the day that sorrow's gone from time. They keep telling of the day, When the Saviour of love will come to stay. Tell me... Who of them, will come to be? How ma-ny of them, are you and me? Procla-mation, of Race Re-lations, Conso-lation, inte-gretion. Verifi-cation, of Reve-lations, accla-mation, world sal-vation. Vi-brations, stimu-lation, confir-mation, to the peace of the world. They've been spending most their lives, living in a Pastime Paradise. They've been spending most their lives, living in a Pastime Paradise. They've been spending most their lives, living in the future paradise. They've been spending most their lives, living in the future paradise. We've been spending too much of our lives, living in a Pastime Paradise. Let's start living our lives, living for, the future paradise. Praise to our lives, living for, the future paradise. Shame to anyone's lives, living in the pastime paradise.

Cette chanson évoque la tendance des gens à vivre dans le passé ou à s'accrocher à des rêves de jours meilleurs, plutôt qu'à affronter la réalité présente. Elle souligne comment l'obsession pour des souvenirs glorifiés ou des espérances d'avenir peut nous faire perdre de vue les enjeux importants du moment. Les paroles mettent en lumière les défis des relations raciales et de l'isolement qui persistent dans notre société, tout en appelant à une prise de conscience collective et à une action positive. Dans ce contexte, on peut ressentir une invitation à sortir de cette torpeur et à se concentrer sur l'avenir, en cherchant à bâtir un monde meilleur, uni et solidaire. Cela résonne particulièrement aujourd'hui, où la nécessité d'un changement et d'une compréhension mutuelle est plus pressante que jamais.
