歌词
When I heard the news
当我听到这个消息
I nearly lost my breath
我几乎失去了呼吸
My heart stopped
我的心停止了
And I held my chest
按着我的胸膛
How could it be true, how could it be true?
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
我买了十份报纸
I bought ten copies of the paper
尽量买了所有的报纸
Tried to buy them all
但他们不允许
But they wouldn’t let me
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
How could it be true, how could it be true?
裁剪剪辑
纸片贴满了我的墙
Cut out the clip
我把它带去工作
And wallpapered my wall
去复制我可以贴满整栋房子
I took it to work
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
To make copies so I could paper the whole house
我扫描过
How could it be true, how could it be true?
所以我可以把它展示给我外地的朋友
我给编辑写了封信
I scanned it too
表扬了他
So I could show it to my out-of-town friends
他们忘记的名字
I wrote a letter to the editor
他们没有回答的问题
To give praise and a mention
那些他们没有回答的问题
To the names they forgot
所以一个人做什么
And the answers they didn’t question
拥有这一切荣耀
And those answers they didn’t question
聘请公关公司
So what’s one to do
诉说其余的故事
With all this fame and glory
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
Hire a PR firm
快速写下来
To tell the rest of the story
所以我可以做四点的新闻
How could it be true, how could it be true?
我知道这只是当地
但如果这是他们所选择的
Write it down quick
我们晚餐后会庆祝
So I can make the 4 o’clock news
也许跳舞
I know it’s only local
谁切蛋糕？
But if it’s what they choose
没有任何警告
We’ll celebrate over dinner,
谁切蛋糕？
Maybe dancing too
用我的特制的刀
切成小块放进每个人的盘子里
Who cut the cake?
谁切蛋糕？
Without any warning
没有任何警告
Who cut the cake?
谁切蛋糕？
With my special knife
用我的特制的刀
Into tiny little pieces for every fella’s wife
切成小块放进每个人的盘子里
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
Who cut the cake?
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
Without any warning
怎么可能是真的，怎么可能是真的？
Who cut the cake?
With my special knife
Into tiny little pieces for every fella’s wife
How could it be true, how could it be true?
How could it be true, how could it be true?
How could it be true, how could it be true?
