I Was Only Joking - Monsters of Rock
以下歌词翻译由文曲大模型提供
Ever since I was a kid at school
自年少求学时起
I messed around with all the rules
我便肆意践踏规则
Apologised then realised
道歉后才恍然惊觉
I'm not different after all
自己终究平庸如常
Me and the boys thought
曾与伙伴们狂妄以为
We had it sussed
早已参透爱情真谛
Valentinos all of us
个个自诩情场圣手
My dad said we looked ridiculous
父亲笑我们荒唐可笑
But boy we broke some hearts
但我们曾伤透多少真心
In and out of jobs' running free
辗转职场又肆意逃离
Waging war with society
与社会规则为敌
Dumb blank faces stare back at me
麻木空洞的面容与我相觑
But nothing ever changed
可一切从未改变
Promises made in the heat of the night
深夜冲动许下的诺言
Creeping home before it got too light
总在天亮前狼狈归家
I wasted all that precious time
我虚掷了所有珍贵年华
And blamed it on the wine
都怪酒精作祟
I was only joking my dear
亲爱的 我只是在开玩笑
Looking for a way to hide my fear
试图掩饰内心的惶恐
What kind of fool was I
我究竟有多愚蠢
I could never win
终究无法获胜
Never found a compromise
从未学会退让
Collected lovers like butterflies
像追逐蝴蝶般游戏人间
Illusions of that grand first prize
幻想着摘得头奖的虚妄
Are slowly wearing thin
誓言正渐渐消逝
Susy baby you were good to me
苏西宝贝 你曾待我如此温柔
Giving love unselfishly
无私地奉献着爱意
But you took it all too seriously
可你却太过认真
I guess it had to end
我想这终将结束
I was only joking my dear
亲爱的 我只是在开玩笑
Looking for a way to hide my fear
试图掩饰内心的惶恐
What kind of fool was I
我究竟有多愚蠢
I could never win
终究无法获胜
Now you ask me
如今你问我
If I'm sincere
是否真心
That's the question
这个问题
That I always fear
总让我惶恐
Verse seven is never clear
第七节永远模糊不清
But I'll tell you
但我要告诉你
What you want to hear
你想听些什么
I try to give you all you want
我试图满足你所有期许
But giving love is not my strongest point
但付出爱意非我所长
If that's the case
若真如此
It's pointless going on
继续又有何意义
I'd rather be alone
我宁愿独自前行
'Cause what I'm doing must be wrong
因我的所作所为必定有误
Pouring my heart out in a song
只能在歌中倾尽真心
Owning up for prosperity
为后世承担责任
For the whole damn world to see
让全世界都看清真相
Quietly now while I turn a page
此刻我默默翻开新篇章
Act one is over without costume change
第一幕落幕 无需换装
The principal would like to leave the stage
主角想要离开舞台
The crowd don't understand
观众却无法理解
