歌词
They say I'm too young to love you,
他们都说我爱上你为时过早
I don't know what I need,
说我连自己心底的渴望都看不透彻
They think I don't understand
他们总是会以为我不谙人事
The freedom land of the seventies
永远不会理解他们七十年代的回忆
I think I'm too cool to know ya,
我却觉得 我只是高傲得不屑于理解
You say I'm like the ice I freeze
你说我就如冰山一般冷峻 不解风情
I'm churning out novels like Beat poetry on Amphetamines
在纸上热切地挥洒著灵感 好似醉了的狂热诗人
I say, I say
我说 我说
Well, my boyfriend's in a band,
我的男友就在这乐队之中
He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed,
在我唱着娄李德时 他拿吉他附和
I've got feathers in my hair,
五彩缤纷的羽毛缀饰在我发间
I get down to Beat poetry,
垮掉一代的诗歌让我心驰神往
And my jazz collection's rare
我对爵士乐的了解足以令你瞠目
I can play most anything,
我能够让音符优美地流转于指尖
I'm a Brooklyn baby,
布鲁克林的灵魂在我体内游走
I'm a Brooklyn baby
布鲁克林的血液日夜不眠不休
They say I'm too young to love you,
他们都说我爱上你未免太过稚嫩
They say I'm too dumb to see,
说我愚昧到看不穿这露骨的事实
They judge me like a picture book
他们审视画册一般打量批判着我
By the colors, like they forgot to read,
以老迈失焦的心阅读烂漫的色彩
I think we're like fire and water,
我想我们就如火与水般互不相容
I think we're like the wind and sea,
像不停翻滚的烈风和静谧的汪洋
You're burning up, I'm cooling down
你肆意扬首燃烧 我则低头往深渊里去
You're up, I'm down
你正被火团簇拥而去 我则不断坠落
You're blind, I see
你盲目不仁 我则眼神冷彻
But I'm free, I'm free
但我是自由的 不必要被接受与给予
Well my boyfriend's in a band,
我的男友就在这乐队之中
He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed,
在我唱着娄李德时 他拿吉他附和
I've got feathers in my hair,
五彩缤纷的羽毛缀饰在我发间
I get down to Beat poetry,
我沉醉于垮掉一代的诗词
And my jazz collection's rare
我对爵士乐的了解足以令你瞠目
I can play most anything,
我能够让音符优美地流转于指尖
I'm a Brooklyn baby,
布鲁克林的灵魂在我体内游走
I'm a Brooklyn baby
布鲁克林的血液日夜不眠不休
I'm talking about my generation,
我正与旁人畅谈着这一代的种种荒诞想法
Talking about that newer nation,
一座理想的国度在那话语间仿佛拔地而起
And if you don't like it
如果你有什么不尽认同的
You can beat it, beat it baby
你尽可以反驳
You never liked the way I said it,
你从来不是欣赏我高谈阔论的人
If you don't get it, then forget it
你记得也好 你最好忘掉
So I don't have to ******* explain it
这样我便不用再向你解释这一切的意义
And my boyfriend's in a band,
我的男友正在这乐队之间挥洒
He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed,
在我轻声哼起娄李德时 他拿吉他附和
I've got feathers in my hair,
皇冠般的缤纷羽毛缀在我的发间
I get high on hydroponic ****,
And my jazz collection's rare,
我对爵士乐的了解足以令你瞠目
I get down to Beat poetry,
我正在漂泊诗人的道路之上徜徉
I'm a Brooklyn baby,
布鲁克林的灵魂在我体内游走
I'm a Brooklyn baby
布鲁克林的血液日夜不眠不休
Yeah, my boyfriend's pretty cool,
我的男友有着冷彻人心的性子
But he's not as cool as me,
但他不如我冷峻 绝代风华
Cause I'm a Brooklyn baby,
我的血液中自有布鲁克林的傲气
I'm a Brooklyn baby
我的灵魂中自有布鲁克林的荣耀
