Room Eleven - Bitch

為了找尋一件合適的風衣，臨睡前去法國品牌WE的網站，卻被首頁傳出來的清冷甜而不膩的女聲給吸引，她輕輕唱著I am a bitch, I am a lover，我隨即想起來是Meredith Brooks的Bitch原曲。循線找下去，發現這是個荷蘭樂團，Jazz / Pop / Folk調調甚合我胃口。專輯在2006年發行，名稱Six White Russians and a Pink Pussycat，很是可愛。



I hate the world today　今天我討厭這個世界

You're so good to me　我知道你對我很好

I know but I can't change　但我無法改變

tried to tell you　我試著告訴你

but you look at me like maybe　但你看著我

I'm an angel underneath　彷彿我皮相之下是個天使

innocent and sweet　無邪又甜美



Yesterday I cried　昨日我哭了

You must have been relieved to see the softer side　見識我的軟弱你必然覺得寬慰

I can understand how you'd be so confused　我可以理解你為何如此混亂

I don't envy you　我不羨慕你

I'm a little bit of everything　我什麼個性都有

all rolled into one　全部融合成我



I'm a bitch, I'm a lover　我是賤人，亦是愛人

I'm a child, I'm a mother　我是孩子，亦是母親

I'm a sinner, I'm a saint　我是個罪人，亦是聖人

I do not feel ashamed　我絲毫不感羞愧

I'm your health, I'm your dream　我是你的健康，你的夢

I'm nothing in between　我不走中間路線

You know you wouldn't want it any other way　你知道你就是愛我這個調調



So take me as I am　所以接受我

This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man　這也意味著你得更為堅強

Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous　當我令你緊張、走極端之際

and I'm going to extremes　你都得對我保持信心

Tomorrow I will change　明日我終將有所轉變

and today won't mean a thing　今日所作所為便不值一提



Just when you think you've got me figured out　正當你以為你把我摸透之際

The season's already changing　季節又已轉換

I think it's cool you do what you do　我喜歡你原來的樣子

and don't try to save me　也不試圖拯救我的模樣



I'm a bitch, I'm a tease　我是個賤人，是個笑話

I'm a goddess on my knees　我是跪坐的女神

When you hurt, when you suffer　當你受傷痛苦時

I'm your angel under cover　我就是你的假面天使

I've been numbed, I'm revived　曾經麻木不仁，但如今重新甦醒

Can't say I'm not alive　不能說我不曾活著

You know I wouldn't want it any other way　但你知道我就是喜歡自己這個調調
