歌词
Here’s another speech you wish I’d swallow
献上我那一次直言不讳的演说(代指1997MTV苹果的颁奖感言)
Another cue for you to fold your ears
又一次让你捂住双耳的长篇大论(暗示他的爱人无法忍受她的说教)
Another train of thought too hard to follow
又一串让你难以捉摸的想法
Chugging along to the song that belongs to the shifting of gears
我写歌的灵感就好像齿轮的变档装置那般疯狂(diss某Spin杂志)
Please forgive me for my distance
那么您请原谅我的疏离
The pain is evident in my existence
我的存在给你带来了显而易见的痛苦
Please forgive me for my distance
请原谅我的忽远忽近
The shame is manifest in my resistance
在我顽强的抵抗中 你失败的羞耻是如此昭然揭示
To your love, to your love, to your love
你那虚假的情意 致你那虚假的爱意
I would’ve warned you, but really, what’s the point?
我早就警告过你了 但话说回来 意义又在何此?
Caution could but rarely ever helps
谨言慎行从未真正帮助过我
Don’t be down when my demeanor tends to disappoint
尽管我的举止言行让你失望 也不要放弃我
It’s hard enough even trying to be civil to myself
有时对自己礼貌都是件不易之事
Please forgive me for my distance
那就原谅我的疏离吧

原谅我的忽远忽近
The shame is manifest in my resistance

My derring-do allows me to dance the rigadoon
你那恃强凌弱的姿态让我有勇气去
Around you
跳黎高登舞曲(十七世纪的法国舞曲)
But by the time I’m close to you, I lose
我靠近你的时候却又失去了
My desideratum and now you, so
对你的渴盼 而如今
Now you have it, so tell me baby what’s the word?
你拥有了它 所以 那又有何用处
Am I your gal, or should I get out of town?
我是你的佣人吗? 还是你随意打发的对象?
I just need to be reassured
我只需要再三确认
Do you just deal it out, or can you deal with
