[00:00.000] 作词 : Benny Andersson/Björn Ulvaeus/Tim Rice
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Benny Andersson/Björn Ulvaeus/Tim Rice
[00:05.921] When I was nine I learned survival
[00:09.169] Taught myself not to care
[00:12.998] I was my single good companion
[00:16.989] Taking my comfort there
[00:20.338] Up in my room I planned my conquests
[00:24.470] On my own; never asked for a helping hand
[00:30.507] No one would understand
[00:36.171] I never asked the pair who fought below
[00:41.215] Just in case they said no
[00:50.229] Pity the child who has ambition
[00:54.784] Knows what he wants to do
[00:57.879] Knows that he'll never fit the system
[01:02.094] Others expect him to
[01:05.502] Pity the child who knew his parents
[01:09.853] Saw their faults
[01:11.405] Saw their love die before his eyes
[01:15.967] Pity the child that wise
[01:21.347] He never asked "Did I cause your distress?"
[01:27.528] Just in case they said yes
[01:33.290] When I was twelve my father moved out
[01:39.579] Left with a whimper, not with a shout
[01:45.505] I didn't miss him, he made it perfectly clear
[01:53.242] I was a fool and probably queer
[01:59.342] Fool that I was I thought this would bring
[02:05.591] Those he had left closer together
[02:12.664] She made her move the moment he crawled away
[02:17.572] I was the last the woman told
[02:21.875] She never let her bed get cold
[02:26.366] Someone moved in: I shut my door
[02:30.602] Someone to treat her just the same way as before
[02:40.652] I took the road of least resistance
[02:44.035] I had my game to play
[02:47.729] I had the skill, and more: the hunger
[02:51.368] Easy to get away
[02:54.915] Pity the child with no such weapons
[02:58.716] No defence, no escape from the ties that bind
[03:04.289] Always a step behind
[03:09.518] I never called to tell her all I'd done
[03:15.398] I was only her son!
[03:44.778] Pity the child but not forever
[03:48.057] Not if he stays that way
[03:51.652] He can get all he ever wanted
[03:55.400] If he's prepared to pay
[03:59.106] Pity instead the careless mother
[04:02.861] What she missed
[04:04.125] What she lost when she let me go
[04:08.487] And I wonder does she know
[04:13.491] I wouldn't call: a crazy thing to do
[04:19.516] Just in case she said who?
歌词翻译
[00:05.921] 九岁那年我学会了如何生存
[00:09.169] 告诉自己不要去在意
[00:12.998] 自己和自己作伴
[00:16.989] 自己安慰自己
[00:20.338] 在自己房间里策划着我的象棋战役
[00:24.470] 孤身一人,从未要求援手
[00:30.507] 没人会理解
[00:36.171] 我从未要求别人做我的同伴
[00:41.215] 只是因为怕他们拒绝
[00:50.229] 这个可怜的孩子,有着抱负
[00:54.784] 清楚他所想做的
[00:57.879] 清楚他永远都不会适应这个体制
[01:02.094] 而其他人却期望他适应
[01:05.502] 这个可怜的孩子,了解他的父母
[01:09.853] 看到了他们的错误
[01:11.405] 看着他们的爱在眼前逝去
[01:15.967] 可怜的孩子,以他的聪明
[01:21.347] 却从未问起“是我造成你们的不幸吗?‘’
[01:27.528] 只是因为怕他们说,是的
[01:33.290] 我12岁那年,父亲搬出去了
[01:39.579] 只有啜泣,没有喊叫
[01:45.505] 我不想念他,他让一件事情变得非常明了
[01:53.242] 我是个傻瓜甚至是个怪胎
[01:59.342] 愚蠢如我,竟以为这样可以
[02:05.591] 让我和母亲更加亲密
[02:12.664] 当父亲离开后,母亲下出了她的一步棋
[02:17.572] 而我是最后一个被那女人告知的
[02:21.875] 她永远不会让她的床变凉
[02:26.366] 于是有人搬进来了,我关上了我的房门
[02:30.602] 那个人就像父亲以前一样对待她
[02:40.652] 我选了条阻力最小的路
[02:44.035] 我有自己的人生棋局
[02:47.729] 我有技巧,更多的,还有渴望
[02:51.368] 离开很容易
[02:54.915] 可怜的孩子,没有像样的武器
[02:58.716] 没有防御,没有逃离困境的能力
[03:04.289] 总是落在后面
[03:09.518] 我从来没有告诉过她,我所做过的一切
[03:15.398] 我只是她的儿子!
[03:44.778] 可怜的孩子,但不会永远可怜下去
[03:48.057] 如果他继续进行下去的话
[03:51.652] 如果他付钱
[03:55.400] 他可以得到所有他想得到的
[03:59.106] 陷入可怜和悔恨的,将是那个粗心的母亲
[04:02.861] 她将会想念她曾经失去的东西
[04:04.125] 当她让我离开
[04:08.487] 我怀疑她是否知道
[04:13.491] 我不会给她打电话,这件疯狂的事情
[04:19.516] 只是因为怕她在电话里说:你是谁?
