烂纸稿 Pianoman

[晴空]

听说王力宏翻唱过，我还不知道呢...你别问我谁是王力宏，我不怎么认识...（偷笑）

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday 现在是星期六早上九点钟
The regular crowd shuffles in 人来人往的
There's an old man sitting next to me 有个老人坐在我身边
Makin' love to his tonic and gin 边喝酒边玩音乐

He says, "Son, can you play me a melody? 他说，孩子，你能为我弹段音乐不？
I'm not really sure how it goes 我不很清楚是怎么回事 （晴空指正：我不清楚它到底是怎样的——指具体的技术，指法）
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete 但是这带着甜蜜的忧伤，我非常清楚 （晴空指正：前一句 但它又甜又悲，后一句 我很懂得——指其感情）
When I wore a younger man's clothes" 当我被一个老人邀请时 （晴空指正：当我还穿着年轻人的衣服时——即当我还年轻时）

La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Chorus: 和声
Sing us a song, you're the piano man 为我们唱一首吧，钢琴手
Sing us a song tonight 今晚为我们唱一首
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody 我们都期待着你的旋律
And you've got us feelin' alright 你懂得我们的感情

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine 现在在酒吧的JOHN是我的一个朋友
He gets me my drinks for free 他为我叫了一杯酒 （晴空指正：他请了我一杯酒）
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke 他很幽默 （晴空指正：还有 为你点烟）
But there's someplace that he'd rather be 但是眼神中在游离
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."他说，BILL，这个会杀了我的
As the smile ran away from his face 笑容从他脸上消失了
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place" 我想如果我能从这里出去的话，我一定能成为一个电影明星

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Now Paul is a real estate novelist PAUL是一个投资商（晴空指正：是个职业小说家）
Who never had time for a wife 没有时间陪老婆
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the navy 现在他在跟D***Y，那个还是海军的人聊天
And probably will be for life 也许这就是生活

And the waitress is practicing politics 侍者在练习礼仪
As the businessmen slowly get stoned 生意人喝醉了
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness 大家一起喝酒，一起享受寂寞
But it's better than drinkin' alone 但是总比独自喝酒好


It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday 这个周六很热闹
And the manager gives me a smile 经理给了我一个笑容
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see 因为他知道（晴空指正：因为他们知道那是我，他们来看了）
To forget about life for a while 这儿能够忘记生活 （晴空指正：为了暂时忘记生活）
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival 那个钢琴 听起来就像在狂欢 （晴空指正:狂欢曲- -）
And the microphone smells like a beer 麦克风闻起来就像啤酒
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar 他们坐在酒吧，把面包丢进我的夹克 （晴空指正：罐子）
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?" 问，你到这儿干什么呢？

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Sing us a song, you're the piano man 为我们唱一首吧，钢琴手
Sing us a song tonight 今晚为我们唱一首
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody 我们都期待着你的旋律
And you've got us feelin' alright 你懂得我们的感情


不错的歌，散散心用的...其实带着淡淡的悲伤。不建议听翻唱的。
