想要一匹馬: Pony
[ 2006-09-14 18:06 ]
本網小評:“Pony”出自Kasey Chambers第三張專輯“Wayward angel”(《任性天使》)。在這張專輯里,一度走在鄉村樂和搖滾樂交接點的kasey,音樂路逐漸拓寬并呈多元化趨勢。專輯中,高音危危欲墜的“荊棘鳥”不見了,Kasey開始朝舒緩和流行化發展,而她對節奏、對鼓點的把握似乎也比以前沉穩許多。
“Pony”以一個小孩的視角,描繪了只有小女孩才會做的愛情夢:“擁有漂亮的‘小矮馬’、生個可愛的‘小寶寶’、或搖身變為端莊賢惠的‘淑女’”——這都是女孩子托腮做白日夢時對未來的美好期盼,但無論做什么夢,都離不開最真、最癡、最純、最可愛的夢——我那一天會不會成為你的新娘?

Lyrics
When I grow up I want a pony
I'm gonna ride her from dust til dawn
I'm gonna brush hermane
|
Pony
|
And feed her sugar cane
And keep her in safe from the storm
If I had a pony
I wonder could I be your girl
When I grow up I want a baby
I'm gonna name it afterRalph Stanley
And I sure won't mind if it cries all night
Just as long as it looks like me
If I had a baby
I wonder could I be your girl
Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl
When I grow up I want a cowboy
With dust all over his jeans
With a horse named Jack
And aten-gallonhat
He is nice but looks so mean
If you were a cowboy
I wonder could I be your girl

ten-gallon hat

Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl
When I grow up I'll be a lady
All my rings will be made of gold
I'll put flowers in my room
I'll wear perfume
I won't listen to rock n roll
If I was a lady
I wonder could I be your girl
Yodelay he yodeloh oh
You rock my world
Yodelay he yodeloh
When I grow up I wanna be your girl
When I grow up I want a pony
When I grow up I want a baby
When I grow up I want a cowboy
When I grow up I'll be a lady
