- Ani DiFranco 32 Flavors 歌詞
- Ani DiFranco
- Squint your eyes and look closer
瞇起雙眼仔細端詳
Im not between you and your ambition
我不會在你和你的理想之間漂浮
I am a poster girl with no poster
我是脫離海報的海報女郎
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
不僅僅擁有三十二種風味
And Im beyond your peripheral vision
而我身處於你的余光以外
So you might wanna turn your head
所以你應該想要轉頭來看我
Cause someday youre going to get hungry
因為某天你會為我傾心
And eat most of the words you just said
再收回你說過的大部分話
父母教導我善意的重要性
Both my parents taught me about good will
我也一直滿足了他們的期望
And I have done well by their names
只是那些施予陌生人的善行
Just the kindness Ive lavished on strangers
於我來說很難闡釋
Is more than I can explain
仍然會有很多人在我路過時熄滅門廊上的燈光
Still theres many whove turned out their porch lights
只為讓我覺得他們並不在家
Just so I would think they were not home
他們藏匿於窗後的黑暗
And hid in the dark of their windows
直到我悄然經過獨留他們在背後窺探
Til Id passed and left them alone
醜陋的女孩能得到上帝的庇佑
因為美貌反而會成為厄運的開端
And God help you if you are an ugly girl
對於人群中奪目的絕色佳人
Cause too pretty is also your doom
每個人都懷有隱藏的惡意
Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
若你是只鳳凰也會受到上帝的庇佑
For the prettiest girl in the room
能夠在灰燼之中涅槃重生
And God help you if you are a phoenix
當你展翅飛掠過人群之時
And you dare to rise up from the ash
眾人的雙眼會被燃燒的妒火吞噬
A thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy
我從未用貶低你的方式
While you are just flying past
來尋求我生活的意義
我只想為自己聲明
I never tried to give my life meaning
我已竭盡所能
By demeaning you
我不是聖人
And I would like to state for the record
只是不想活成我不喜歡的樣子
I did everything that I could do
不，我永遠不會成為聖人
Im not saying that Im a saint
但我會一直說著
I just dont want to live that way
仔細端詳之後再認真地思考
No, I will never be a saint, oh
我並不是你理想中無足輕重的插曲
But I will always say
我擁有海報女郎般的甜美與陽光
Squint your eyes and look closer
也有多姿多彩的人生
Im not between you and your ambition
我身處於你的視野之外
I am a poster girl with no poster
所以你可能想要回過頭來看著我
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
因為某天你會意識到自己渴望著更多
And Im beyond your peripheral vision
然後收回曾經所有冷漠的違心話
So you might wanna turn your head
Cause someday you might find youre starving
And eating all of the words that you said
