歌词
Jill and I were talking just the other day about the bowerbirdies and the little houses they made
Jill和我那天谈论了园丁鸟和它们自制的温馨小屋
They collect sticks and objects in lovely colours
它们收集色彩缤纷小木棍和物件
In order to attract a special and suitable lover
来吸引它们独特而又契合的伴侣
And David thinks the hummingbirds are fascinating
而David觉得蜂鸟更加引人入胜
I wonder if they invented the art of speed dating?
我好奇会不会就是它们发明了快闪约会
They flap their wings 50 to 200 times per second
它们每秒会扇动50到200次翅膀
I guess that's how they get those crazy pecs
我想它们那惊人的胸肌就是这样练出来的
But it was the flight of the common snipe
但却是那常见的鹬
Which kept me up in my bed at night
令我辗转难眠
And I thought about what it was to him
我思索到底是他哪点令我如此痴迷
A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
是他那美丽的倒影让我沉醉其中
Have you ever seen a picture of a cassowary?
你见过食火鸡的图片吗
It has a six-inch claw which I find rather scary
它长着令我畏惧的长达6英寸的利爪
If you're not careful it may very well eviscerate you
你要是不小心很有可能被它削肉剥骨
And, if you ask me, that's a dinosaur
在我看来，那简直就是只恐龙
And what is up with the shoebill stork?
那鲸头鹳又是怎样的呢
It looks like it's about to stab you with a fork
它们那凶狠的样子看起来就像随时要掏出叉子来捅你一样
And yet apparently it's highly prized
可它们又如此稀有而珍贵
Perhaps because its beak is very large in size
也许是因为它们那硕大无比的喙
But it was the flight of the common snipe
但却是那常见的鹬
Which kept me up in my bed at night
令我辗转难眠
And I thought about what it was to him
我思索到底是他哪点令我如此痴迷
A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
是他那美丽的倒影让我沉醉其中
And I thought about what it was to him
我思索到底是他哪点令我如此痴迷
A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
是他的美回响在我脑海中
But it was the flight of the common snipe
但却是那常见的鹬
Which kept me up in my bed at night
令我彻夜清醒
And I thought about what it was to him
我思索到底是他哪点令我如此痴迷
A reflection of his beauty which made my head swim
是他那美丽的倒影让我沉醉其中
