The False Monk is a song written, composed and sung by Cui Jian.
Lyrics:
Music: Cui Jian?
Arranging by Cui Jian
I want to go from south to north and from white to black.
I want people to see me, but they don't know who I am.
If you think I'm a little tired, please pour me a bowl of water.
If you have fallen in love with me, please kiss my mouth.
I have these feet, I have these legs, and I have this Qian Shan.
I want all this, but don't hate it and don't regret it.
If you want to fall in love with me, don't be afraid to regret it. One day I will fly away.
Extended data
The fake monk is a song from Cui Jian's album Rock on the New Long March, which was released on 1989. Rock on the New Long March is called the first album in the history of Chinese rock music, which shows the expression of theme emotion and the presentation of inner state under the specific historical and cultural background at that time. His music text shows a passion of social criticism and a heroic tendency to innovate language, which is the expression of individual elite discourse.
Rock on the New Long March can be regarded as a summary of all Cui Jian's creations: a reflection on history and the Cultural Revolution, and a re-search and establishment of the value coordinates of a generation. He criticized social history in the form of rock music, and enlightened and named the "masses" in society at that time.
In addition to a gesture of rejection, Cui Jian also set up the image of a prodigal son who was "traveling from south to north" in other songs of "Fake Monk" and in the album "Rock on the New Long March". "I want to go from south to north, and I want to go from white to black" (Fake Monk).
