Girl, you know this ain't love
I'm just a bedlam beggar with nothin' to do
It's on you
And oh, what else can I do?

女孩，你知道這不是愛
我只是個無所事事的瘋癲乞丐*
還不是你害的
哎，不然我又有何事可做？

You say that you're not around
And you don't wanna be found
Well, I wanna be the best at what I do
Oh, what about you? What about you?

你說你不在附近
也不願讓人找到
我只是想把我的份內事做好
那你呢？你又是怎麼想的？

Play me like a record, baby
Spin me around, turn me upside down
And you don't want me to
I'll pull the covers right up over your head

把我當成唱片播放，親愛的
使我旋轉，令我顛倒
你若不願我如此
但我會拿被子掩住你的頭**

You're in my head
It won't always be like this, be like this
Again, honey, I'll be dead
It won't always be like this, always be like this

你在我腦海裡
卻不會永遠如此、永遠如此
又來了，親愛的，我快受不了了
不會一直一直這樣下去的

Girl, you know it ain't cool
Walkin' 'round and 'round in circles after you
Broken and bruised
But oh, what else can I do?

女孩，這一點都不有趣
亦步亦趨地隨你兜來轉去
弄得傷痕累累
哎，但我還能怎麼辦？

Play me like a record, baby
Spin me around, you turn me upside down
And you don't want me to
But I'll pull the covers right up over your head

把我當成唱片播放，親愛的
使我旋轉，令我顛倒
你不願我如此
但我會拿被子掩住你的頭

You're in my head
It won't always be like this, always be like this
Again, honey, I'll be dead
It won't always be like this, always be like this

你在我腦海裡
卻不會永遠如此、永遠如此
又來了，親愛的，我快受不了了
不會一直一直這樣下去的

Always be like this
Now you know
Now you know
Now you know
Now you know
Now

一直這樣下去
現在你曉得
現在你曉得
現在你曉得
現在你曉得
就是現在

In my head, in my head
It won't always be like this
Honey, I'll be dead when I'm dead
It won't always be like this

在我腦海裡、在我腦海裡
卻不會永遠如此
親愛的，我至死方休
不會一直這樣下去的

*Bedlam Beggar原為十七世紀初英國一首佚名詩的標題，後用以指患有/假裝患有精神疾病的乞丐或流浪漢，學者John Aubrey指出這些人可能是曾是Bethlem Royal Hospital 精神病院的住民。Bedlam Beggar或Tom o' Bedlam一詞的用法可見於莎士比亞的悲劇《李爾王》。

** Pull the Covers Right Up (Over My Head) 是 Tran Sisters 發行於 1963 年的一首歌。
