Luka - Suzanne Vega


My name is Luka

我的名字叫璐卡
I live on the second floor

我就住在二樓
I live upstairs from you
我住在你的樓上

Yes I think you've seen me before

是的,我想你曾看過我

If you hear something late at night

如果你在深夜聽到什麼
Some kind of trouble. some kind of fight

像某種麻煩,某種傷害
Just don't ask me what it was

別問我那到底是怎樣回事
Just don't ask me what it was

別問我那到底是怎樣回事
Just don't ask me what it was

別問我那到底是怎樣回事

 

I think it's because I'm clumsy

我想那是因為我太笨了
I try not to talk too loud

我試著別大聲嚷嚷
Maybe it's because I'm crazy

也許那是因為我太瘋狂
I try not to act too proud

我試著別表現太傲慢

They only hit until you cry

他們都在你哭的時候打你

(只要不哭就不會挨揍)
And after that you don't ask why

在那之後你別問為什麼
You just don't argue anymore
你只要別再爭辯

You just don't argue anymore

你只要別再爭辯
You just don't argue anymore

你只要別再爭辯

 

Yes I think I'm okay

是的,我想我還好
walked into the door again

可以再次進去那扇門
 if you ask that's what I'll say

如果你問我,我會說
And it's not your business anyway

而那又不干你的事
I guess I'd like to be alone

我想我喜歡孤單
With nothing broken, nothing thrown

沒有東西被打破,被扔過去

Just don't ask me how I am

別問我我怎麼樣
Just don't ask me how I am

別問我我怎麼樣
Just don't ask me how I am

別問我我怎麼樣

 
  

Luka璐卡選自蘇珊薇格1987年發表的第二張專輯:獨佇Solitude standing,和湯姆小吃店Tom’s Diner並列為其中最受激賞的曲子。
  
 全曲以簡單的旋律,說著一個受虐兒童的故事。故事的主角用一種推拒的態度,有點遮掩又有點請別注意我的低調卻又希望引起留意的矛盾態度,默默著述說著心聲。

  奇異的是主角淡漠的態度,彷彿在說的是別人的故事,有種自我抽離的無助。Just don't ask me what it was」、「Just don't ask me how I am」連唱三句,越唱越悲哀,似乎在說著,「不要,不要再注意我,拜託。」哀求的聲音似乎越來越難過,讓人也無法繼續直視。
