来自Scissor Sisters的Intermisson是跳跃的、活泼的、欢快的旋律,以及黑暗的充满死亡气息的歌词。“Happy yesterday to all,we were born to die”。来倾听死亡的舞曲吧。
(有些地方翻译的不够准确,有些地方的意思甚至是直接猜的,sigh)
When you're standing on the side of a hill 当你站在山上
Feeling like your day may be done 认为一天已经结束
Here it comes 它来了
The strawberry smog 那草莓色的天幕
Chasing away the sun 赶走了最后一缕阳光
Don't let those precious moments fool you 不要让那些美妙的时光蒙蔽你
Happiness is getting you down 快乐只会让人堕落
A rainbow never smiles or blinks 彩虹从不会微笑或眨眼
It's just a candy-colored frown 那只是糖果色的愁容
You were going on at half-past seven 你7点半出发
Now it's going on a quarter 'til nine 但现在已经差一刻9点
All the angels want to know 所有的天使都想知道
Are you lost or treading water? 你是迷路了,还是在心不在焉
And you're going on your fifteenth bender 你在进行第15次狂欢
But you've only got a matter of time 但这只是时间问题
Yes we've all got seeds to sow 是的,我们每个人都要播种
Not everyone's got lambs to slaughter 但不是所有人都有肉吃
When the night wind starts to turn 当那夜晚的风
Into the ocean breeze 变得像大海一样冰冷
And the dew drops sting and burn 露水落下,刺痛而灼烧
Like angry honey bees 就像愤怒的蜜蜂
That is when you hear the song falling from the sky 你会听到这首歌从天而降
Happy yesterday to all 快乐已如昨天过去
We were born to die 死亡永远不可避免
Sometimes you're filled with the notion 有时你有突发奇想
The afterlife's a moment away 来生离你并不遥远
You want to tell someone the way that you feel 你想与人分享这种感受
But then you ain't got nothing to say 但却不知道如何开口
You fight for freedom from devotion 你为了自由而积极奋斗
A battle that will always begin 那是一场旷日已久的战争
With somebody giving you a piece of advice; 有人给了你一些建议
By the way you're living in sin 结果让你生活在罪恶之中
Now there's never gonna be an intermission 哦,这永远不会间断
But there'll always be a closing night 但确实有结束的一刻
Never entertain those visions 永远不要把那些幻象当作儿戏
Lest you may have packed your baggage 除非你已经准备打包走人
First impressions are cheap auditions 第一印象永远不可靠
Situations are long goodbyes 苦难永远也摆脱不了
Truth so often to living dormant 真相总爱藏在阴影里
Good luck walks and bullshit flies 祝你好运,不要仆街
When the headlights guide your way 当头灯指引着你的道路
You know the place is right 你知道到地方了
When the treetops sing and sway 当树梢一边唱一边摇摆
Don't go to sleep tonight 别轻易的入睡
That is when you see the sign 你会看到这启示
Luminous and high: 那皓月当空:
Tomorrow's not what it used to be 明天将会不同
We were born to die 但死亡仍然不可避免
Happy yesterday to all 快乐已如昨天过去
We were born to die 但死亡仍然不可避免
