Exit Songtext

von Faye Wong

Heard that doomsday will arrive in 1999
When that time comes we must get married and have a child
Let God take him to heaven before he commits too many sins
Perhaps we could take some credit for it

I have many problems; problems which cannot be resolved
I lack patience; nothing will please me
I often offend people; it's as if I was born with this talent
I despite being a star; yet I crave attention

Flicking through the entertainment section
A big charity show; everyone is donating money
This is our contribution
I don't like politics; think it's filled with hidden danger
I care about our society; but society has fallen into enemies' hands
Of course there's a good side to it

I believe only in love; hope to have a happy family
But the fortune-teller said our marriage will not go smoothly
Said that when you're forty you will have an affair
Makes me worried; makes people worried

I want to find an exit; is there really a way out
I'm a Buddhist; does htis help
I try to attain happiness, but what is happiness
My concept of it is unclear
