People Help the People是英国创作型歌手Birdy的一首翻唱歌曲。贾斯敏•范•登•博加尔德(Jasmine Van den Bogaerde),以艺名Birdy为人所知,生于英国。2008年,她以十二岁之龄赢得Open Mic UK音乐竞赛冠军,因而成名。
她的首支单曲Skinny Love,翻唱自Bon Iver。2011年11月7日,Birdy发布了其同名专辑《Birdy》。2013年9月23日,她的第二张录音室专辑《Fire Within》于世界范围(除北美地区)发布。她的音乐被广泛评价为清幽温婉又打动人心。名称源自Birdy在小时候她的妈妈喂她吃东西时,因张开大口时的样子活像一只小鸟,因此她的父把Birdy当作她的别名,并一直沿用至今。
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
Guess he kissed the girls and made them cry
Those hard-faced queens of misadventure
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken lives
Fiery throngs of muted angels
Giving love but getting nothing back, oh
People help the people
And if you're homesick
give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
And nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain,
Oh and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as a fool
That turned all those good hearts away
God knows what is hiding in this world of little consequence
Behind the tears, inside the lies
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
Guess the loneliness came knocking
No one needs to be alone, oh singin'
People help the people
And if you're homesick,
give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain,
Oh and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as a fool
That turned all those good hearts away
Nah naaah nah nah naaaaahhhhhh oooouuuu
Nah naaah nah nah naaaaahhhhhh oooouuuu
People help the people
And if you're homesick,
give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh and if I had a brain,
Oh and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as a fool
That turned all those good hearts away
