It Is What It Is (And That's All) - Steve Forbert
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Fell for this dream girl in Danville
在丹维尔爱上梦中女孩
Just in the Central Time zone
就在中部时区里
I used to kill hours to meet her on time
曾为准时赴约消磨时光
And then lost one as well drivin' home
归途却丢失了一小时
Mexican boy on Doheny
多亨尼街的墨西哥男孩
Sellin' a map to stars' homes
兜售明星住址地图
Maybe he's homeless
或许他无家可归
And maybe they're gone
或许明星早已搬离
And the afternoon traffic rolls on
午后的车流依旧川流不息
Driving a Jaguars impressive
驾驶捷豹的威风令人艳羡
But you can't watch it go by
却只能任其从眼前掠过
And the Manhattan skyline is a sight to behold
曼哈顿的天际线壮丽非凡
But prob'ly best through New Jersey based eyes
但或许从新泽西远眺才最美
It is what it is and that's all
生活本就如此 仅此而已
What are you going to do
你又能如何改变
Will some fool look up on a clear day and say
会有痴人在晴空下仰望低语
That the sky's not a true enough blue
天空蓝得不够纯粹
It never much rains but it's pouring
虽不常下雨 此刻却倾盆
Everything happens at once
所有事突然同时发生
Flat tires and light bulbs while picture frames fall
爆胎和灯泡坏掉 相框从墙上
From the wall where they've hung fine for months
安稳挂了数月后坠落
It is what it is and that's all
生活本就如此 仅此而已
Lay down a mat by the door
在门口铺张垫子吧
Will some fool rush in from a cloud burst and say
会有冒失鬼冲进暴雨中说
Hell I'm soaked and I'm totally bored
天啊 我浑身湿透无聊透顶
Out there by the interstate the duplex I call home
州际公路旁那栋复式公寓 就是我称之为家的地方
Ain't quite the quietest place on earth to catch your breath
这可不是世上最安静的喘息之地
Non-stop highway sound makes backyard picnics out to lunch
永不停歇的高速公路噪音 让后院野餐变得索然无味
Fact is my next door neighbor's fine completely deaf
实际上我隔壁邻居是个十足的聋子
Maybe you wish you had money
也许你渴望拥有金钱
Then you might think you could live
那样你或许会觉得能活下去
Life is so brief you may think time a thief
生命如此短暂 你或许觉得时光是个小偷
Better live for whatever it gives
无论生活给予什么 都要好好活着
Pondering the future you worry
你为未来忧心忡忡
Listen somehow you'll get through
但请相信终会渡过难关
Then you'll look backwards and long for the things
待到回首时 才会渴望那些
That you'll find it's then too late to do
却发现为时已晚的事
It is what it is and that's all
生活本就如此 仅此而已
When are you going to see
你何时才能明白
Friends tell you true and your granddad did too
朋友忠言相告 祖父也曾教导
But you won't take advice that comes free
你却不愿接受这些免费的忠告
Get what you want you don't want it
得到所求后反而索然无味
Not even glad while you eat
连用餐时都难展欢颜
Wait for your flight while the heavyweights fight
等待航班时看权贵们争斗
And the planes try to land in the sleet
飞机在雨雪中艰难着陆
It is what it is and that's all
生活本就如此 仅此而已
And birds can't row boats baby blue
就像飞鸟永远划不动小船
Will some fool sit stuck on the runway and say
会有哪个傻瓜困在跑道上抱怨
Hell it's only me this happens to
见鬼 这种倒霉事只有我碰上
It is what it is and that's all
生活本就如此 仅此而已
It is what it is and that's all
生活本就如此 仅此而已
