歌词
I went so numb on Christmas day
圣诞节我冻得麻木
I couldn't feel my hands or feet
冻得手脚没有知觉
I shouldn't have come
我不该来的
She made me pay
她要我付出代价
For gleaming with Donald down her street
因为我和唐纳德在她家那条路上嬉闹
She put blame on him
她责备他
And shame on me
又羞辱我
She made it all seem so tawdry and cheap
她把整个节日搞的廉价而庸俗
"Oh, let's be nice, Mama, open up your gifts
“拜托,友好一点啦,妈,拆礼物吧
You know, happiness is the best facelift"
快乐最能让人喜笑颜开”
I mean, after all, she introduced us
毕竟,可是她介绍我们认识的
Oh, but she regrets that now
可她现在又有点后悔了
Shacked up downtown
我俩在市中心都同居了
Making love without a license
可亲热都还需要经过其他人许可
Same old sacred cow
经过某些恪守旧俗的老妪的许可
She said, "Did you come home to disgrace us?"
她说“你是前来羞辱我们的么?”
I said, "Why is this joy not allowed?
我说“为何我这点快乐都不被允许呢?”
For God's sake, I'm middle-aged, Mama
天,妈,我都中年人了
And time moves swift
时间过得很快
And you know happiness is the best facelift"
你知道,快乐最能让人喜笑颜开
Oh, love takes so much courage
爱要太多勇气
Love takes so much shit
爱的代价又太多
She said "You've seen too many movies, Joni"
她说“你电影看太多了,琼尼”
She said "Snap out of it!"
她说“从白日梦里醒醒吧”
Oh, the cold winds blew at our room with a view
风吹进我们能看到风景的房间
All helpful and hopeful and candlelit
一派温馨祥和的气氛,房间还笼罩着烛光
We kissed the angels and the moon eclipsed
我们和天使亲吻,天上出现月食
You know, Happiness is the best facelift
快乐总是最让人眉开眼笑
We pushed the bed up to the window
我们把床推到窗户那里
To see the Christmas lights
在潺潺的小河的东河岸对面
On the east bank across the steaming river
在小桥之间
Between the bridges lit up Paris-like
亮着圣诞灯
This river has run through both our lives
我们快乐的小河岸间
Between these banks of our continuing delights
这条河流横贯我们欢喜的一生
Bless us, don't let us lose the drift
祝福我们吧,不要让我们失去它
You know, Happiness is the best facelift.
快乐永远是最让人眉头舒展的
