Evelyn Evelyn - "Evelyn Evelyn"

Evelyn, Evelyn,
Why do we bother to stay?
Why are you running away?
依芙琳，依芙琳，
我們何必在一起呢？
為什麼你要逃走？

Don’t you feel like severing?
Everything’s just come together at last.
It’s broken, I don’t want to play.
你不想分開嗎？
反正最後都會在一起。
這壞了，我不玩了。

We grew up closer than most.
Closer than anything, closer than anything.
Shared our bed and wore the same clothes.
Talked about everything, spoke about so many things.
我們成長得比任何人都親密。
無比親近，無比親近。
睡同一張床，穿同一件衣服。
無話不談，聊了那麼多絮語。

What shall we wear tonight? What shall we eat today?
Can we go ice skating? But we just did that yesterday.
Should we be firemen? Can we be astronauts?
What if they find us? They’re not looking anyway.
今晚我們穿甚麼好呢？晚餐要吃甚麼？
我們可以去溜冰嗎？可是我們昨天去過了。
我們要當消防隊員嗎？我們能當太空人嗎？
他們發現我們怎麼辦？反正他們也沒正眼瞧過。

Fill my glass, let’s drink a toast.
This is our birthday, so why are we weeping?
At your side, I feel like a ghost.
I wake up first, and I stare at you sleeping.
斟滿我的杯子，我們乾杯吧。
今天是我們的生日，那為什麼我們在哭呢？
在你身邊，我感覺像個鬼魂。
我先醒來，凝視你的睡顏。

What shall we wear tonight? What shall we eat today?
Do you think I should marry him? But we just met him yesterday.
Should we be movie stars? Will we be millionaires?
I want to be famous. They're watching us anyway.
今晚我們穿甚麼好呢？晚餐要吃甚麼？
你覺得我該嫁給他嗎？可是我們昨天才認識他耶。
我們該當電影明星嗎？我們會成為億萬富翁嗎？
我要成名。反正他們總看著我們。

We grew up so very close.
A parasite needs a host.
I’m only trying to do what is best for us.
Well, I never asked for this, I never wanted this.
All that I want is some time to myself.
Looking in your eyes, I’m coming home.
Just get away from me, please just stop touching me.
You’re always trying to be somebody else.
Now I realize I’m not alone.
Well, you’re only scared of me.
But you never cared for me.
Why don’t you let me free?
‘Cause you’d never dare to be.
‘Cause you never listen, you’re always insisting.
(I’m just/just stop) reminiscing,
I feel something missing.
I just want (you here with me/my privacy),
God (can’t we just get along/won’t you leave me alone)?
我們親密的一起長大。
只是寄生蟲需要宿主。
我只想做對我們倆最好的。
嗯，我從來不求這個，這從不是我想要的。
我只是想要有自己的時間。
看進你的眼睛，我就回到家了。
滾遠一點就是了，拜託別再碰我了。
你每次都想成為別人。
現在我知道我不孤單。
呃，你只讓我覺得恐怖。
可你從不在乎我。
你為什麼不放我自由？
因為你永遠不敢。
因為你從來不聽，你總是堅持，
(我只想說說/別再提)往事，
我覺得悵然若失。
我只是想要(你跟我在一起/我的隱私)
老天啊為什麼(我們不能在一起/你不讓我一個人靜一靜)?

[翻譯筆記]

• 這是由雙人樂團Evelyn Evelyn寫的歌，歌名是Evelyn Evelyn。
• 描述連體嬰姊妹Eve和Lyn的身體/情感糾葛，聽起來超亂來的，可是樂團的背景故事設定真的就是這樣XD
• Evelyn Evelyn的現場如圖，他們不是真的連體嬰，而是由Amanda Palmer和Jason Webley兩位音樂家穿同一件衣服飾演。
