- Paul Simon'The Obvious Child'歌詞
I'm accustomed to a smooth ride
我沉浸於平淡的人生
Or maybe i'm a dog who's lost its bite
或許我是一隻沒有野性的狗
I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more
我也知道自己有點傻
I don't expect to sleep through the night
我不指望能整夜安睡
Some people say a lie's a lie's a lie
有人說你就騙人吧
But i say why
可是為什麼啊
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
And in remembering a road sign
在回憶一個路標時
I am remembering a girl when i was young
我想起了年輕時的姑娘
And we said these songs are true
這些歌不是矯情濫作
These days are ours
那是我們的青春
These tears are free And hey
眼淚自由揮灑
The cross is in the ballpark
棒球場的十字架
The cross is in the ballpark
棒球場的十字架
We had a lot of fun
我們曾經歡笑著
We had a lot of money
我們曾經數著錢
We had a little son and we thought we'd call him sonny
我們曾經還有一個叫桑尼的兒子
Sonny gets married and moves away
桑尼結婚之後搬走了
Sonny has a baby and bills to pay
桑尼有了小孩之後要還貸
Sonny gets sunnier
桑尼變得越來越開朗
Day by day by day by day
日復一日年復一年
。 。 。 。 。
。 。 。 。 。 。
I've been waking up at sunrise
我隨日出而醒
I've been following the light across my room
追隨著房間裡的光線
I watch the night receive the room of my day
我看見夜色暗了下來
Some people say the sky is just the sky
人們說天即是天
But i say
但我說
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
Why deny the obvious child?
為什麼要為難這個尋常孩子呢
桑尼靠著窗戶檢討自己
Sonny sits by his window and thinks to himself
好奇怪有些房間像是牢籠
How it's strange that some rooms are like cages
桑尼的高中紀念冊
Sonny's yearbook fromhigh school
從架子上掉了下來
Is down from the shelf
於是他百無聊賴地翻閱
And he idly thumbs through the pages
有的人已經入土
Some have died
有的人早已忘記了自己的模樣
Some have fled from themselves
還有的人堅強地四處漂泊
Or struggled from here to get there
桑尼心牆漫步
Sonny wanders beyond his interior walls
不斷地捋著稀疏棕髮
Runs his hand through his thinning brown hair
我沉浸於平淡的人生
Well i'm accustomed to a smoother ride
或許我是一隻沒有野性的狗
Maybe i'm a dog that's lost his bite
我也知道自己有點傻
I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more
我不指望能整夜安睡
I don't expect to sleep the night
有人說你就騙人吧
Some people say a lie is just a lie
但是我說棒球場的十字架
But i say the cross is in the ballpark
做一個平淡的孩子有什麼錯？
Why deny the obvious child?
