中英双语歌词
碧昂斯的强势新单“Pretty Hurts”选自她的第五张录音室专辑《Beyonce》，歌曲以独特的视角解读了女性“破茧成蝶”的艰辛历程。这首歌最初是写给水果姐Katy Perry的，之后又给了Rihanna，结果两位都没有看上。拿到碧昂斯手上的时候，她正在为新专辑收歌，于是被采用。她想通过这首歌告诉人们选美大赛的负面影响，以及人们对女性外貌过度关注带来的不良影响。

Ms. Third Ward Your first question What is your aspiration in life? Oh, my aspiration in life Would be to be happy Mama said, "You're a pretty girl. What's in your head, it doesn't matter Brush your hair, fix your teeth What you wear is all that matters." Just another stage Pageant the pain away This time I'm gonna take the crown Without falling down, down, down Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Perfection is a disease of a nation Pretty hurts, pretty hurts Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Tryna fix something But you can't fix what you can't see It's the soul that needs the surgery Blonder hair, flat chest TV says, "Bigger is better." South beach, sugar free Vogue says, "Thinner is better." Just another stage, pageant the pain away This time I'm gonna take the crown Without falling down, down, down Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Perfection is a disease of a nation Pretty hurts, pretty hurts Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Tryna fix something But you can't fix what you can't see It's the soul that needs the surgery Ain't got no doctor or pill that can take the pain away The pain's inside And nobody frees you from your body It's the soul, it's the soul that needs surgery It's my soul that needs surgery Plastic smiles and denial can only take you so far And you break When the paper sign leaves you in the dark You left a shattered mirror And the shards of a beautiful girl Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Perfection is a disease of a nation Pretty hurts, pretty hurts Pretty hurts Shine the light on whatever's worse Tryna fix something But you can't fix what you can't see It's the soul that needs the surgery When you're alone all by yourself And you're lying in your bed Reflection stares right into you Are you happy with yourself? It's just a way to masquerade The illusion has been shed Are you happy with yourself? Yes |
来自休斯顿第三区的这位女士 你的第一个问题是 你的人生追求是什么？ 哦，我的人生追求 是要幸福 妈妈说，你是个漂亮的女孩 聪不聪明没有关系 头发整齐，牙齿干净 穿什么才重要 在另外一个舞台 选美让伤痛远离 这次我要夺冠 不会再失败，失败 美丽让人痛苦 让糟糕的一面暴露 追求完美是这个国家的疾病 美丽让人痛苦 让糟糕的一面暴露 尝试着修复什么 但你无法弥补看不到的东西 需要修补的是灵魂 金色的头发，平平的胸部 电视上说，越大越好 南海岸，无糖 时尚杂志说：越瘦越好 在另外一个舞台 选美让伤痛远离 这次我要夺冠 不会再失败，失败 美丽让人痛苦 让糟糕的一面暴露 追求完美是这个国家的疾病 美丽让人痛苦 让糟糕的一面暴露 尝试着修复什么 但你无法弥补看不到的东西 需要修补的是灵魂 没有医生和药物可以减轻这痛苦 痛苦已致深处 没有人可以帮你解除痛苦 需要修补的是灵魂 需要修补的是我的灵魂 假装的微笑和拒绝不能再带你走太远 看不懂纸上的标识 这让你崩溃 你留下一面破碎的镜子 和一个漂亮女孩破碎的身影 美丽让人痛苦 让糟糕的一面暴露 追求完美是这个国家的疾病 美丽让人痛苦 让糟糕的一面暴露 尝试着修复什么 但你无法弥补看不到的东西 需要修补的是灵魂 当你独自一人时 躺在床上 你陷入沉思 你觉得自己幸福吗 这是唯一伪装的方式 摈除幻觉 你觉得自己幸福吗 你觉得自己幸福吗 是的 |
