Don’t Come and Bother Me
Bie lai zuchan wo


I don’t want to say anything more to you
Now you get the angry me
You’ve already drowned in your own hypocrisy
you’ve changed into a disgusting color

Do the work you should do
better than all the rest
Change your ways so that others can stand you
You and I are equal, you and I

Hey! Don’t come and bother me
Don’t make me unhappy
This is a new China
I don’t want to say more

How could all your talk be so arbitrary and rude?
Is that what you call a rule?
Maybe you should do your politeness homework
Don’t let people end up denouncing you outloud

Do the work you should do
better than all the rest
Change your ways so that others can stand you
You and I are equal, you and I

Hey! Don’t come and bother me
Don’t make me unhappy
This is a new China
I don’t want to say more

Hey! Don’t come and bother me
Don’t make me unhappy
This is a new China
I don’t want to say more
