[中文]

I'm in the business of misery

我靠制造痛苦为生

Let's take it from the top

让我们从头开始

She's got a body like an hourglass, it's ticking like a clock

她有沙漏般的身材，像时钟一样滴答作响

It's a matter of time before we all run out

我们耗尽时间只是时间问题

When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth

当我以为他属于我时，她用嘴俘获了他

I waited eight long months, she finally set him free

我等了漫长的八个月，她终于放他自由

I told him I couldn't lie, he was the only one for me

我告诉他我不能撒谎，他是我唯一的选择

Two weeks and we had caught on fire

两周后，我们燃起了爱火

She's got it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile

她想除掉我，但我脸上挂着最灿烂的笑容

Whoa, I never meant to brag

哇哦，我从没想过要炫耀

But I got him where I want him now

但我现在让他完全听我的

Whoa, it was never my intention to brag

哇哦，我从来没有想要炫耀

To steal it all away from you now

现在把你的一切都夺走

But God, does it feel so good

但老天，这感觉太好了

'Cause I got him where I want him now

因为我让他完全听我的

And if you could, then you know you would

如果可以，你知道你也会这么做

'Cause God it just feels so

因为老天，这感觉真是

It just feels so good

感觉真是太好了

Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change

第二次机会毫无意义，人们永远不会改变

Once a whore, you're nothing more

一旦当了妓女，你就永远是妓女

I'm sorry, that'll never change

对不起，这永远不会改变

And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged

关于原谅，我们本应该互相交换

I'm sorry, honey, but I passed it up, now look this way

对不起，亲爱的，我放弃了，现在看着这边

Well, there's a million other girls who do it just like you

像你这样的女孩还有几百万个

Looking as innocent as possible to get to who

装作尽可能无辜的样子来得到她们想要的人

They want and what they want, it's easy if you do it right

以及她们想要的东西，如果你做得对，这很容易

Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse

我拒绝，我拒绝，我拒绝

Whoa, I never meant to brag

因为我让他现在完全听我的

And if you could, then you know you would

如果可以，你知道你也会这么做

'Cause God, it just feels so

因为老天，这感觉真是

It just feels so good

感觉真是太好了

I watched his wildest dreams come true

Not one of them involving you

• She's got a body like an hourglass, it's ticking like a clock

  ➔ 现在完成时 (have got), 明喻

  ➔ "She's got" 是 "She has got" 的口语说法，相当于 "She has"。它描述了她拥有的身体特征。“like an hourglass” 和 “like a clock” 是一种明喻，将她的身材比作沙漏，将情况的紧迫性比作滴答作响的钟表。

• When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth

  ➔ 过去简单时，过去进行时 (隐含)

  ➔ "Thought" 和 "caught" 是过去简单时，表示过去已完成的动作。 隐含的过去进行时描述了正在进行的情况，“I was thinking he was mine.”

• Two weeks and we had caught on fire

  ➔ "Had caught" 使用过去完成时来表示在过去另一个时间点 *之前* 完成的动作（大概是叙述者意识到他们的关系迅速变得激烈的时候）。

• Whoa, I never meant to brag

  ➔ 过去简单时（否定式），目的不定式

  ➔ "Never meant" 使用过去简单时的否定形式来表达她过去不打算吹嘘。“To brag” 是一个不定式，表示她*没有*的目的。

• But God, does it feel so good

  ➔ 使用助动词 'does' 进行强调

• Once a whore, you're nothing more
