Текст и перевод песни 張智霖 - 孩子先生

孩子先生

望上去 如巨漢那麼巨
盼你們放過我吧 我得四歲啫嚄
沒興趣 做你會很累
你以愛駁回我的反對

你替我穿起恤衫西裝帶我上班去
如孩童被勉強地困在放大身體裏
不登對
孩子先生

由玩意變會議 那樣潑冷水
由樂趣變必須 忙死了味蕾
由盡興變助興 位置剛剛相對
我想嬉戲過後 嬉戲下去

説句笑也要理據也要數據太瑣碎
童年時就算有罪兩滴眼淚洗得去
哭一句
孩子先生

你替我穿起恤衫西裝帶我上班去
如孩童被勉強地困在放大身體裏
不登對
歲數對性格不對

無論你教我道理 還是我教你遊戲
到結尾你我都嘆氣唉
悶到死 凡事計算功利
神呀賜予我永遠四歲的福氣
看慣了戲 哪裏有驚喜
怨慣自己 想不起快樂的滋味

聽説有成年人連自己 都唾棄
孩童們沒有禁忌怕就不理
繼續嬉戲
四歲有四歲真理

Child Gentleman

You loom above, a giant so grand,
I beg you, let me be, I'm only four, understand?
I have no interest in this, it's tiresome, you see,
But you counter my protests with your love's decree.

You dress me in a shirt and suit, take me to work with you,
Like a child forced into a body, much too large, it's true.
A mismatch,
A child gentleman.

From toys to meetings, such a cold splash of reality,
From fun to obligation, busy to the point of tastelessness, truly,
From joy to support, our positions in stark disparity,
I just want to play, and keep on playing, endlessly.

Even a joke needs justification, data, so mundane,
In childhood, even guilt could be washed away with tears, unrestrained.
Just a cry,
A child gentleman.

You dress me in a shirt and suit, take me to work with you,
Like a child forced into a body, much too large, it's true.
A mismatch,
Age matches, but personality doesn't, it's askew.

Whether you teach me reason or I teach you play,
In the end, we both sigh, "Oh, what a day,"
Bored to death, everything calculated, gains hold sway,
Oh God, grant me the eternal blessing of being four, I pray.
Used to the show, where's the surprise, I say?
Accustomed to blaming myself, can't recall the taste of joy, anyway.

I hear some adults even despise their own way,
Children have no taboos, if they're afraid, they just don't play,
Continue to play,
Four years old has its own truth, come what may.
