When It Sells - The Cats

When It Sells - The Cats
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Your company is only in for money
唱片公司眼里只有金钱利益
And honest managers are hard to find
真诚的经纪人难觅踪迹
On your own you'll never hit the big time
单打独斗永远难成大器
And when you do the taxman robs you blind
等你好不容易出头 税务又榨干你
Although your fans wil tear the place to pieces
尽管粉丝会为你疯狂
You'll never ever get a good review
却永远得不到乐评青睐
The press won't spill a word on your next album
媒体对你新专辑只字不提
And you won't get the airplay if they do
就算提及也难登电台榜单
Just tell the whites it's country and western
对白人宣称这是乡村民谣
Just tell the blacks it's rhythm and blues
对黑人说这是节奏蓝调
Just tell the intellectuals it's jazzrock
告诉知识分子这是爵士摇滚
And when it sells just tell them they can choose
等唱片大卖 任他们自行定调
Romantic highway life is only boring
公路巡演的浪漫尽是枯燥
You never get a decent meal to eat
连顿像样饭菜都难以吃到
The songs you write are mostly pretty ballads
笔下诞生的多是柔美民谣
And all your fans just like a drivin' beat
可听众只爱躁动的鼓点喧嚣
You know that *** are ruining your body
你明知那些东西正在摧毁你的身体
You know speed kills so you're just getting pissed
你知道速度致命 却只能借酒消愁
And off the booze you only live on downers
戒了烈酒 却靠镇静剂度日
So you will not regret the chicks you missed
这样就不会为错过的女孩后悔
Just tell the whites it's country and western
对白人宣称这是乡村民谣
Just tell the blacks it's rhythm and blues
对黑人说这是节奏蓝调
Just tell the intellectuals it's jazzrock
告诉知识分子这是爵士摇滚
And when it sells just tell them
等唱片大卖时只需告诉他们
Just tell the whites it's country and western
对白人宣称这是乡村民谣
Just tell the blacks it's rhythm and blues
对黑人说这是节奏蓝调
Just tell the intellectuals it's jazzrock
告诉知识分子这是爵士摇滚
And when it sells just tell them they can choose
等唱片大卖 任他们自行定调
