The Life of a Showgirl – 英语/中文 双语歌词

• 作者: Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter

歌词与翻译

[中文]

她叫Kitty

她靠美貌和机智赚钱

他们把这座城的钥匙交给了她

然后他们说她不是按正当方式做到的

我买了一张票

她穿着吊袜带和鱼网袜在跳舞

在五十人演员阵容中，她毫无失误

回头看，我觉得那是天命

我在舞台门口等着

和签名迷们挤在一起

吆喝着她的名字

然后像烟头一样发光

哇，她走了出来

我说，你活成了我的梦想。

然后她对我说

嘿，谢谢你送来的漂亮花束

你比桃子还甜

但你不知道表演女郎的生活，宝贝

而你永远也不会

等一下，你玩的越多，付出的越多

你比小猫还软萌

你不知道表演女郎的生活，宝贝

而你永远不会想要

她是个麻烦精

Lenox家里的掌上明珠

她的父亲像所有男人一样在外寻欢作乐

她的母亲吃药并打网球

于是她在舞台门口等着

当俱乐部的推广人抵达时

她说，“我愿意把灵魂卖掉，只为尝到那种华丽的生活，那是我的全部。”

但这不是表演女郎得到的待遇

他们把我们抛下自生自灭

嘿，谢谢你送来的漂亮花束

你比桃子还甜

但你不知道表演女郎的生活，宝贝

而你永远也不会

等一下，你玩的越多，付出的越多

你比小猫还软萌

你不知道表演女郎的生活，宝贝

而你永远不会想要

我把她的智慧之珠戴在颈间

把它们挂在我的颈上

每一道伤痕都是我的代价

我知道会遇到什么

你想在我血管里的冰面上滑行

他们像撕掉假睫毛一样把我骗走了

然后把我丢弃了

墙上所有的头照

都是舞厅里的巫婆

他们盼望我快点死去

但现在我已经永生，宝贝们

即使我再努力也做不到

所以我说

谢谢你送来的漂亮花束

我和忙碌形影不离

现在我知道表演女郎的生活，宝贝

我再也不会知道别的生活

藏在口红和蕾丝下的痛苦

亮片是永恒的，如今我知道表演女郎的生活，宝贝

我就这样过下去

谢谢你送来的漂亮花束

我也不会想要别的方式

谢谢你送来的漂亮花束

嘿，Kitty

现在我靠美貌和机智赚钱

谢谢你送来的漂亮花束

谢谢你带来一个难忘的夜晚

下次再见

为乐队鼓掌

以及舞者们

当然，还有 Sabrina

我爱你，Taylor!

这就是我们的秀

我们非常爱你

晚安！

[英语]

Her name was Kitty

Made her money being pretty and witty

They gave her the keys to this city

Then they said she didn't do it legitly

I bought a ticket

She's dancing in her garters and fishnets

50 in the cast, zero missteps

Looking back I guess it was kismet

I waited by the stage door

Packed in with the autograph hounds

Barking her name

Then glowing like the end of a cigarette

Wow, she came out

I said, "You're living my dream."

Then she said to me

"Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet

You're sweeter than a peach

But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe

And you're never, ever gonna

Wait, the more you play the more that you pay

You're softer than a kitten so

You don't know the life of a showgirl, babe

And you're never gonna wanna"

She was a menace

The baby of the family in Lenox

Her father whored around like all men did

Her mother took pills and played tennis

So she waited by the stage door

As the club promoter arrived

She said, "I'd sell my soul to have a taste of a magnificent life, that's all mine."

But that's not what showgirls get

They leave us for dead

"Hey, thank you for the lovely bouquet

You're sweeter than a peach

But you don't know the life of a showgirl, babe

And you're never, ever gonna

Wait, the more you play the more that you pay

You're softer than a kitten so

You don't know the life of a showgirl, babe

And you're never gonna wanna"

I took her pearls of wisdom

Hung them from my neck

I paid my dues with every bruise

I knew what to expect

You wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins

They ripped me off like false lashes

And then threw me away

And all the headshots on the walls

of the dance hall are of the witches

who wish I'd hurry up and die

But, I'm immortal now, baby dolls

I couldn't if I tried ...

So I say

"Thank you for the lovely bouquet

I'm married to the hustle

And now I know the life of a showgirl, babe

And I'll never know another

Pain hidden by the lipstick and lace

Sequins are forever and now I know the life of a showgirl, babe

Wouldn't have it any other way"

Thank you for the lovely bouquet

Wouldn't have it any other way

Thank you for the lovely bouquet

Hey Kitty

Now I make my money being pretty and witty

Thank you for the lovely bouquet

Thank you for an unforgettable night

We will see you next time

Give it up for the band

And the dancers

And of course, Sabrina

I love you, Taylor!

That's our show

We love you so much

Goodnight!
