歌词
I was reading Slim Aarons and I got to thinking that I thought
我读着Slim Aarons 再一次思酌曾经千般的想法
Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like
若生活未曾给过我这么多考验 或许我更愿些许的解脱
All of these debutantes
涉世未深的年轻女子啊
Smiling for miles in pink dresses and high heels on white yachts
穿着高跟鞋和一袭粉色裙摆遥远地微笑 在白色的游艇之上
But I'm not, baby, I'm not
但我不是她们 亲爱的 我并非她们
No, I'm not, that, I'm not
我永远不会成为 除我之外的其他人
I've been tearing around in my f**king nightgown
曾游荡四方 穿着我那该死的睡袍
24/7 Sylvia Plath
无时无刻 Sylvia Plath
Writing in blood on the walls
她的诗句以血为字书于我的墙面
'Cause the ink in my pen don't work in my notepad
因为记事本里 笔墨已经无用
Don't ask if I'm happy, you know that I'm not
别问我是否快乐 你知道我并不快乐
But at best, I can say I'm not sad
但至少我能说 我并不悲哀
'Cause hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
因为希望危险异常 对于我这般的女人
Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
希望危险异常 若像我这样的女人也想拥有
I had 15-year dances
十五年时光蹁跹舞蹈
Church basement romances, yeah, I've got
也曾拥有教堂地下室里的浪漫情节
Spilling my guts with the Bowery Bums
和那些波威街酒鬼一同喝得烂醉
Is the only love I've ever known
彼时 那是我知道的唯一的真爱
Except for the stage, which I also call home, when I'm not
除了被我当做港湾依赖的舞台
Servin' up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad
当我无心侍奉上帝 为他烹煮咖啡时 只为了我的金主
Hello, it's the most famous woman you know on the iPad
嗨 这是你认识的iPad上最富有名誉的女人
Calling from beyond the grave, I just wanna say, "Hi, Dad"
在坟墓之上呼唤 我只想叫一声“嗨爹地”(可能指Otto Plath之死 即前文提到的诗人Sylvia Plath之父)
I've been tearing up town in my f**king white gown
我曾身着长袍 撕裂整个小镇
Like a godd**n near sociopath
就像一个该死的反社会人
Shaking my a*s is the only thing that's
舞蹈这我的双臀是唯一能够
Got this black narcissist off my back
把那黑暗的自负者从我身上摆脱的方法
She couldn't care less, and I never cared more
她不能灭掉关心的念头 我却从未施与他人关怀
So there's no more to say about that
所以我也没有要为自己辩护
Except hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have

Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman with my past

There's a new revolution, a loud evolution that I saw

Born of confusion and quiet collusion of which mostly I've known
疑惑的诞生 还有那些人的勾结 那些我熟识的人们
A modern day woman with a weak constitution, 'cause I've got
一个时髦女郎 内心脆弱不堪因为那些
Monsters still under my bed that I could never fight off
魔鬼依旧在我的床底蛰伏 我永远也无法将他们赶走
A gatekeeper carelessly dropping the keys on my nights off
是地狱的守门人粗心将钥匙 轻柔地扔进了我的夜晚
I've been tearing around in my f**king nightgown
我曾身着睡袍 四处毁坏

Writing in blood on your walls
