失戀王 – Bilingual Lyrics Chinese/English

• By: 陳小春

Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

唱盡了 慘遭愛侶遺棄 那些歌

Singing all the songs of being abandoned by a lover

仍然無一首 夠震撼 我實際踫到的 痛苦苦更多

Still, none of them are shocking enough; the pain I actually feel is much greater

失戀的故事 同樣的折墮 難怪像每首都寫我

The stories of heartbreak are the same; no wonder every song seems to be about me

你不要跟我爭 爭先唱這最慘的歌

Don't argue with me about who sings the saddest song first

要是你想 跟我鬥難過 鬥淒楚

If you want to compete with me in sadness and sorrow

隨時拿起咪唱兩段 我為你歎息的 會否比我多

Feel free to pick up the mic and sing a couple of lines; will my sighs for you be more than mine?

即使間 你能流出真眼淚

Even if you can shed real tears in between

誰個又會悲慘得過

Who could be more miserable than me?

揭開我的創傷 竟好過講笑話

Uncovering my wounds is actually better than telling jokes

娛樂大眾 得到掌聲更多

Entertaining the public gets more applause

每段戀愛 都會認錯人 失戀的冠軍

Every relationship will mistake the wrong person; the champion of heartbreak

怎會再有別個 這樣幸運

How could there be anyone else so lucky?

誰都 跟我沒可能合襯 才顯出我身份

No one can match with me; it only highlights my identity

幾百萬個人 只得一個吸引力 完全是零分

Among millions of people, there's only one attraction; it's completely zero points

最低等 所以第一名是我 你那裡及我襯

Being the lowest rank, that's why I'm the first; you can't match with me

要是你想 知我對情愛 有幾灰

If you want to know how gray my feelings for love are

隨時能講幾個晚上 記錄痛苦的歌 夠開演唱會

I can talk for several nights; the songs that record my pain are enough for a concert

一生的愛人留低的再會 合計亦有幾千分貝

The farewell left by a lifelong lover adds up to thousands of decibels

最初我不過想 分一個安慰獎

At first, I just wanted to share a consolation prize

誰能料到 失戀竟捧了杯

Who would have thought that heartbreak would bring a trophy?

每段戀愛 都會認錯人 失戀的冠軍

Every relationship will mistake the wrong person; the champion of heartbreak

怎會再有別個 這樣幸運

How could there be anyone else so lucky?

誰都 跟我沒可能合襯 才顯出我身份

No one can match with me; it only highlights my identity

幾百萬個人 只得一個吸引力 完全是零分

Among millions of people, there's only one attraction; it's completely zero points

最低等 所以第一名是我 你那裡及我襯

Being the lowest rank, that's why I'm the first; you can't match with me

看看我 有多麼亢奮

Look at me, how excited I am

看看我 最終得到了全場大獎

Look at me, I finally got the grand prize

全憑無人著緊

All thanks to no one caring

每段戀愛 都會認錯人 失戀的冠軍

Every relationship will mistake the wrong person; the champion of heartbreak

怎會再有別個 這樣幸運

How could there be anyone else so lucky?

誰都 總有甚麼人合襯 難得抱憾終生

No one always has someone to match with; it's rare to have regrets for a lifetime

幾百萬個人 只得一個 戀愛運 能突破零分

Among millions of people, there's only one; love luck can break through zero points

負三分 該慶幸的人是我

Negative three points; the one who should be grateful is me

我會繼續發奮

I will continue to strive
