But the value of these shells will fall
但是這些貝殼的價錢一定會下跌164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxZoZKT7Qd
Due to the laws of supply and demand
－－根據供需法則，164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZgjq6FU5p
No one wants to buy shells 'cause there's loads on the sand
沒有人想要買這些貝殼因為貝殼就躺在沙灘上。
Step one, you must create a sense of scarcity164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NkZe1kyqa
Shells will sell much better if the people think they're rare, you see164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16gVkZuA5Q
Bare with me, take as many shells as you can find and hide 'em164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8XeEeXab4
On an island stockpile 'em high until they're rarer than a diamond
第一步，你要利用飢餓行銷。
貝殼會比你想像中的還要值錢－－如果人們覺得貝殼是很稀有的東西。
盡你可能的找到所有的貝殼，然後把它們藏起來。
在一座島上把它們好好的堆疊起來，直到這些貝殼像是鑽石一樣值錢。
Step two, you gotta make the people think that they want 'em164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuyw26yYqT
Really want 'em, really fuckin want 'em164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSWNNRPya6

Influencers, product placement, featured prime time entertainment164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbp7FASgTm6
If you haven't got a shell then you're just a fucking wasteman
第二步，你要讓人們自發的想要擁有這些貝殼。
很想要－－很她媽的想要這些貝殼。
像是經營＂布朗森＂那樣（注一）
公眾人物、置入性行銷、在黃金時段的娛樂。
如果你還沒有一個貝殼，你就是一個廢物。

Swallow all your morals, they're a poor man's quality
第三步，你要把它做成一個壟斷企業，用一些資產投資在這企業之中。
展開一個企業，做出一個商標，妥善的經營它。
＂要賣出盡可能多的貝殼＂，這會變成你的新生活準則。
吞下你那良知吧，那只不過是窮人的特質罷了。
Four, expand, expand, expand164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ClNi9Vc8T
Clear forest, make land, fresh blood on hand
第四步，擴展、擴展、擴展。
掃蕩森林、開闢土地、鮮血在手上流淌。
Five, why just shells?164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzavI9ZQYu
Why limit your self? She sells seashells, sell oil as well!
第五步，為甚麼只賣貝殼？
為甚麼要限制自己？她賣著貝殼，她還賣著石油！
Six, sell guns, sell stocks, sell diamonds,sell rocks
Sell water to a fish, sell the time to a clock
第六步，賣槍、賣股票、賣鑽石、賣石頭，你甚麼都賣。
把水賣給魚，把時間賣給時鐘。
Seven, press on the gas, take your foot off the brakes164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSz0pKO0LSp

第七步，大力踩下油門，把腳從煞車上拿下來。

Now the truth is overrated, tell lies out the gate
第八步，夥計，來一個大大的笑容，一個大大的揮手。
現在事實已經超乎預期了，將謊言直接向外界宣布吧。
Nine, Polarise the people, controversy is the game164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbwIOoQVWA
It don't matter if they hate you if they all say your name
第九步，將人們兩極化，這場遊戲的意義已經從金錢變成了爭議。
他們都在說著你的名字時，他們恨你與否都已經不重要了。

Step out on a stage to a round of applause164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE14SYY8Nfa
You're a liar, a cheat, a devil, a whore164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgxYlImjjt
And you sell seashells on the seashore
第十步，這整個世界都是你的了。
站出舞台，接受四周的掌聲吧。
你是一個騙子，一個作弊者，一個惡魔，一個婊子。
－－在那之外，你在海灘之上賣著貝殼。
Oh rain, rain, rain, rain
喔，外面正在下著雨。164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBwxsnuKsI

這首歌的音樂很慢，和一般的饒舌也有所區別，但卻很莫名的餘音繞樑，在我的腦中不斷迴旋。
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQ8MejXAgv
而且它指出了一點－－資本主義。
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvQwx26Aah
現在一切的東西幾乎都是被這樣＂名標價碼＂了。去星巴克不是為了喝咖啡；買鑽石不是為了......為了......我甚至舉不出鑽石的實際用途－－如果將微量的鑽石作為切割機的刀刃的話令當別論；買新的蘋果手機不是為了更好的性能。164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkK6d2wdZb
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeJ1YhSSOA
有人可能會想說：「這些都是買一個＂氣氛＂，或者說，買一個品牌啊！」
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb76JQ9a5X
甚麼時候一顆透明的礦石和＂忠貞不渝的愛情＂掛上關係了？甚麼時候每一個節日都有著亂七八糟的促銷活動？甚麼時候坐在星巴克裡用著mac成為了"文青"的象徵？164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc7rNXOpNV
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfkWvNXX1T
當這些東西是品牌本身所賦予的時，這些東西還真的有意義嗎？
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhJ2TQCMqn
換個說法，被人操縱的情感算是情感嗎？只不過這個＂人＂並不是特定的某一個人，而是我們整個群體。164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbregvRyC2
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXK6ewNhss
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1MGTPuF6j
另外，再說一句，這首歌我最喜歡的片段就是「把水賣給魚，把時間賣給時鐘。」
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB6AhooK3G
把他們賴以維生的東西抽走，再以高價賣給他們。值得深思。
164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkkx4y5ArG
注：布朗森，根據我查到少量的資料，應該是在指英國１２～１５世紀一個姓氏－－這個詞作為名字很常出現，但作為姓氏卻十分的稀少，因此，這個姓氏的人們就顯得格外尊貴。（不確定，但查不到其他資料了。）
