Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

開個玩笑 別太認真我只是天生幽默

Just joking, don't take it too seriously, I'm just naturally humorous

幹嘛這樣 轉過頭不理我

Why are you like this? Turning your back and ignoring me

好吧寶貝 是我哪裡做錯說錯加搞錯

Alright, babe, what did I do wrong, say wrong, or mess up?

冷靜一下別發火

Calm down, don't get angry

不要生氣 我說一百次對不起

Don't be mad, I've said sorry a hundred times

不要嘆氣 吵架甚麼了不起

Don't sigh, what's so great about arguing?

我說男生的無所謂都是自以為

I say that guys' indifference is just self-deception

我們女生一回一回都在給你機會

We girls keep giving you chances over and over

請你別理由一堆別再傻傻自以為

Please don't come up with excuses, don't be foolishly self-deceived

怎麼學也不會 是誤會是贖罪是你不對

No matter how you learn, it won't work, it's a misunderstanding, it's atonement, it's your fault

是我闖禍 還是每個月的親戚害了我

Is it my fault, or did my relatives cause me trouble every month?

幹嘛這樣 我受不了沉默

Why are you like this? I can't stand the silence

好吧寶貝就當作是我不對怪我 拜託

Alright, babe, just consider it my fault, blame me, please

來抱一下別閃躲

Come give me a hug, don't dodge

不要生氣 我說一百次對不起

Don't be mad, I've said sorry a hundred times

不要嘆氣 吵架甚麼了不起

Don't sigh, what's so great about arguing?

我說男生的無所謂都是自以為

I say that guys' indifference is just self-deception

我們女生一回一回都在給你機會

We girls keep giving you chances over and over

請你別理由一堆別再傻傻自以為

Please don't come up with excuses, don't be foolishly self-deceived

怎麼學也不會 是誤會是贖罪是你不對

No matter how you learn, it won't work, it's a misunderstanding, it's atonement, it's your fault

是不是不夠愛我 是不是不了解我

Is it that you don't love me enough? Is it that you don't understand me?

是不是我說的沒進你耳朵

Is it that what I said didn't reach your ears?

我說男生的無所謂都是自以為

I say that guys' indifference is just self-deception

我們女生一回一回都在給你機會

We girls keep giving you chances over and over

請你別理由一堆別再傻傻自以為

Please don't come up with excuses, don't be foolishly self-deceived

怎麼學也不會 快承認自己不對

No matter how you learn, it won't work, just admit you're wrong

我說男生的無所謂都是自以為

I say that guys' indifference is just self-deception

我們女生一回一回都在給你機會

We girls keep giving you chances over and over

請你別理由一堆別再傻傻自以為

Please don't come up with excuses, don't be foolishly self-deceived

怎麼學也不會 是誤會是贖罪是你不對

No matter how you learn, it won't work, it's a misunderstanding, it's atonement, it's your fault
