歌曲歌詞
Labour
作曲 : Paris Paloma
All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid
終日如此 日復一日 既要做個心理醫生 母親 還要做個女傭
Nymph, then a virgin, nurse, then a servant
又要是女神 處女 護士 還要是個僕人
Just an appendage, live to attend him
只是他的附庸 只為侍奉他
So that he never lifts a finger
讓他永遠不必動一根手指
24/7 baby machine
成為全天候的育嬰機器
So he can live out his picket fence dreams
如此他方可實現那白色柵欄環繞的家的願景
It's not an act of love if you make her
這可不是愛 若你如此待她
You make me do too much labour
你讓我擔負如此多的勞苦
Why are you hangin' on so tight
為何你如此牢牢抓住不放
To the rope that I'm hangin' from off this island?
將我系縛在這座孤島上的那根繩索?
This was an escape plan (This was an escape plan) carefully timed it
這是個逃跑計畫(逃跑計畫) 精心設計的
So let me go and dive into the waves below
就放我走吧 讓我跳入下方的波濤
Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables?
是誰照料著果園?是誰在修補屋檐?
Emotional torture from the head of your high table
你高坐於餐桌之上 向我投來情感的折磨
Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring?
是誰從那岩石隙間采來山泉?
And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting?
再沿著山路扛回來 卻被你尖銳的話語刺痛?
And I'm gettin' ****ing tired
我真***累了
The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
眼裡脹紅的血絲欲將爆裂
If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
若我們的愛凋零,這算是最糟糕的嗎?
For somebody I thought was my saviour
曾以為你是我的救贖
You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
你卻讓我飽受辛勞之苦
The calloused skin on my hands is crackin'
手上那層老繭都要裂開了
If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?
若愛已終結,算是件壞事嗎?
And the silence haunts our bed chamber
我們的床榻擺脫不掉寂靜
You make me do too much labour
你讓我擔負過多的艱辛
Apologies from my tongue, never yours
說出口的歉意 從來不是給你的
Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork
你只顧著沉湎酒色 揮著叉子戳刺著食物
I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man) and weaponise
我知道你是個聰明人(我知道你很聰明)很會耍小聰明
The false incompetence, it's dominance under guise
假愚示弱 實則掌握權勢
If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her
若我們有女兒的話 我只能眼看她受苦 無法將她拯救
The emotional torture from the head of your high table
你高坐於餐桌之上 向我投來情感折磨
She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate
她若遵循你的教導 只會遭受同樣殘酷的命運
So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake
我必須要逃離 才可挽回過失
At least I've gotta try
至少我要努力嘗試
The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
眼裡脹紅的血絲欲將爆裂
If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
愛一旦凋零 何嘗不是最糟的?
For somebody I thought was my saviour
曾以為你是我的救贖
You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
你卻讓我飽受辛勞之苦
The calloused skin on my hands is crackin'
手上那層老繭都要裂開了
If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?
若愛已終結 算是件壞事嗎?
And the silence haunts our bed chamber
我們的床榻擺脫不掉寂靜
You make me do too much labour
你讓我擔負過多的艱辛
All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid
日復一日 終日如此 既要做個心理醫生 母親 還要做個女傭
Nymph, then a virgin, nurse, then a servant
又要是女神 處女 護士 還要是個僕人
Just an appendage, live to attend him
只是他的附庸 只為侍奉他
So that he never lifts a finger
讓他永遠不必動一根手指
24/7 baby machine
全天候的育嬰機器
So he can live out his picket fence dreams
如此他可實現那白色柵欄環繞的家的願景
It's not an act of love if you make her
若以此方式對待她 這不是愛
You make me do too much labour
你讓我擔負如此多的勞苦
All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid
日復一日 終日如此 既要做個心理醫生 母親 還要做個女傭
Nymph, then a virgin, nurse, then a servant

It's not an act of love if you make her

You make me do too much labour
你讓我擔負如此多的勞苦
The capillaries in my eyes are bursting (All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid)
眼裡脹紅的血絲欲將爆裂(終日如此 日復一日 即是心理醫生 母親 又是女傭)
If our love died, would that be the worst thing? (Nymph, then a virgin, nurse, then a servant)
愛一旦凋零,何嘗不是最糟的?(又要是女神 處女 護士 還要是個僕人)
For somebody I thought was my saviour (Just an appendage, live to attend him)
曾以為你是我的救贖(只是他的附庸 只為侍奉他)
You sure make me do a whole lot of labour (So that he never lifts a finger)
你卻讓我飽受辛勞之苦(讓他永遠不必動一根手指)
The calloused skin on my hands is crackin' (24/7 baby machine)
手上那層老繭都要裂開了(成為全天候的育嬰機器)
If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? (So he can live out his picket fence dreams)

And the silence haunts our bed chamber (It's not an act of love if you make her)

You make me do too much labour
你讓我擔負過多的艱辛
