Hey Mr Dj I Thought You Said We Had A Deal (Album Version) - They Might Be Giants
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
I could never sleep my way to the top
我永远无法靠捷径攀上巅峰
'Cause my alarm clock always wakes me right up
因为闹钟总会准时将我唤醒
And since my options had been whittled away
当所有选择都被消磨殆尽
I struck a bargain with my radio DJ
我与电台DJ达成了交易
I said I'd like this song to be number one
我说希望这首歌能登顶榜首
He said "I'd really really like to help you my son"
他说"孩子我真的很想帮你"
And then I knew that I would have him to thank
那时我以为要对他感恩戴德
Because he asked me how much I had in the bank
只因他问我银行有多少存款
He said to think long term investment and
他说要考虑长远投资
That all the others had forgiven themselves
其他人都已原谅了自己
He said the net reward would justify
他说最终回报会证明
The colossal mess they'd made of their lives
他们搞砸人生的价值
He said the record wouldn't have to be hot
他说唱片不必热门
And no one ever seemed to care if it's not
没人在意它是否流行
It would depend on something else that I've got
这取决于我拥有的其他东西
And that the other ones who'd given it a shot
那些曾尝试过的人
Had seen a modest sum grow geometrically
眼看着微薄收入几何倍增
And then they had forgiven themselves
他们便轻易原谅了自己
Because the net reward had justified
只因最终收益足以粉饰
The colossal mess they'd made of their lives*
那些被搅得一团糟的人生*

And I thought you said we had a deal

Well I told you about the world (its address)

I wonder when they're gonna clean up the mess
不知何时才能收拾这片狼藉
You know the rabid child is still tuning in
那个狂热的少年仍在调频守候
Chess piece face's patience must be wearing thin
棋手面具下的耐心即将耗尽
Because they haven't played this song on the air
因为电台始终未播放这首歌
Not that anyone but me even cared
虽然除了我根本无人在意
And the Disk Jockey has moved out of town
那位唱片骑师已远走他乡
The district courthouse says he's nowhere to be found

That all the others had forgiven themselves

He said the net reward would justify
