Circus Song - Don McLean

Circus Song - Don McLean (唐·麦克林)
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Cotton candy two for a quarter
棉花糖 两毛五一个
See if the fat man can guess your weight
看看胖大叔能不能猜中你的体重
A big stuffed tiger is what I bought her
我给她买了只毛绒大老虎
And I'm going home 'cause it's late
天色已晚 我该回家了
Roller coasters make me dizzy
过山车转得我头晕目眩
And cotton candy makes me sick
棉花糖甜得我反胃恶心
I wish I had some Bromo fizzy
真想来点苏打水
That would do the trick
那才能让我好受些
Everyone knows that the clowns aren＇t happy
谁都知道小丑的欢笑并非真心
And everyone knows that the people don＇t care
谁都明白看客的冷漠无动于衷
I wish I could laugh at the way that they＇re acting
多想嘲笑他们拙劣的表演
But I＇m so sick I just don＇t dare to
可我病入膏肓 连讥讽都无力
High wire dancers kick and balance;
钢丝上的舞者踢踏着保持平衡
White silk horses step in time
白绸马匹踏着整齐的舞步
The tattooed man displays his talents
纹身男人炫耀着他的天赋异禀
I＇m not the talented kind
而我 从来不是天赋异禀的那类人
I always go to the circus on Sunday
每逢周日我总爱去马戏团闲逛
And there I can laugh at the people I see
看着人群嬉笑怒骂 我亦开怀
But when I leave home in the morning on Monday
可当周一清晨我独自出门时
Everybody laughs at me
所有人却对我指指点点
You know I make other people nervous
你知道 我总让旁人局促不安
I guess that＇s why they laugh at me
或许这就是他们嘲弄的缘由
But to me my life is a three-ring circus
但对我而言 人生就像三环马戏
And I can see it for free
而我正免费观赏这荒诞剧
Have you seen my wife Elvira
你可曾见过我的妻子埃尔维拉
She can tame a lion you know
她可是能驯服狮子的女人
Well I once had a bushy mane
我也曾有过浓密的鬃毛
But that was so damn long ago
但那早已是遥远的过往
Tight-collared clowns in plastic buildings
塑料建筑里衣领紧绷的小丑们
Have happy families as their fate
注定要拥有幸福美满的家庭
Happy jobs and happy clubs and happy people they hate
体面的工作 热闹的俱乐部 还有他们厌恶的快乐人群
Everyone＇s juggling and everyone＇s acting
人人都在杂耍 人人都在表演
With smiles of greasepaint three feet wide
油彩笑脸夸张得近乎荒诞
And everyone＇s caught on a carousel pony
所有人都被困在旋转木马上
One time around is a lifetime ride
转一圈便是一生的旅程
