Cheap Trick - Surrender：歌詞+中文翻譯

Cheap Trick於1978年的歌曲，
那是個很尷尬的年代，對許多美國人而言，
那是個新舊交替的衝突年代，
這首歌的靈感來自於他的一個朋友口述，
他的爸媽總是對他管東管西，
一切照規矩來教，
但卻偷偷在客廳放著兒子的搖滾樂，
夫妻兩在沙發上抽著大麻享受人生，
他發覺後只能躲在房間一直告訴自己，
沒事的，爸爸媽媽只是有點怪，
一切都沒事...。

[Verse 1]

Mother told me, yes, she told me

媽媽她總是告訴我

That I'd meet girls like you

總有一天會遇到妳這樣的女孩

She also told me, "Stay away

她總是告誡我：閃遠點

You'll never know what you'll catch"

你不會知道自己遇上了什麼鬼

Just the other day I heard

某天我聽媽媽說

Of a soldier's falling off

Some Indonesian junk

That's going 'round

有個士兵在印度染了性病的誇張過程

[Chorus]

Mommy's alright

Daddy's alright

They just seem a little weird

他們只是有點怪而已

Surrender

But don't give yourself away

Hey, hey

Father says, "Your mother's right

She's really up on things

Before we married, Mommy served

In the WACS in the Philippines”

Now, I had heard the WACs recruited

Old maids for the war

Whatever happened to all this season's

Losers of the year?

他們這些年來到底輸了幾場人生比賽？
(指他的父母)

Every time I got to thinking

Where'd they disappear?

每次我都會想他們到底在哪跌倒？

But when I woke up, Mom and Dad

不過當我起床，媽媽與爸爸

Are rolling on the couch

就會在沙發上【辦事】

Rolling numbers, rock and rollin'

Got my KISS records out

邊抽著大麻，放著我的KISS唱片瘋狂享受著年輕人的狂妄
