Boys in the Street

When I was younger
当我年纪轻轻
My daddy told me I would never
父亲告诉我 千万不要
Never amount to nothing special
千万不要做出什么出格的事情
He'd come at me from every angle
他从各个角度对我进行责难打击
He'd say, "You're the last thing I wanted, the last thing I need
他说：“我没把你当回事 你对我来说一点也不重要
How am I going to answer when my friends tell me
我该如何回答？当我从朋友口中得知
My son was kissing boys in the street
我儿子正在大街上亲吻男孩
My son was kissing boys in the street?
我儿子竟然在大街上亲吻男孩？”
He'd try to change me
他试图去改变我
Say I'm embarrassing my country
说我令我的国家蒙羞
How could I do this to my family
质问我怎么能这样对待我的家人呢
Do I wanna grow up being lonely
难道我真的想要孤独终生
He'd say, "We have worked for our money
他说：“我们拼命工作赚钱
We've put you in school
我们把你送进学校
Is this how you repay us?
这就是你报答我们的方式吗？
Do you think this is cool?
你觉得这样很酷？
My son, stop kissing boys in the street
我的儿子啊 不要再在大街上亲吻男孩了
My son, stop kissing boys in the street
我的儿子啊 不要再在大街上亲吻男孩了”

现在我长大了
Now that I'm older
我父亲的内心也不再冷酷无情
My daddy's heart's a little warmer
但他仍然不会像兄弟那样拥抱我
But he still won't hug me like my brother
也不会像母亲那样亲吻我的脸颊
And he still won't kiss me like my mother
他说：“你是家中一员
He'd say, You are part of this family
是我养育了你
I made you myself
但你的行为方式对你没有任何益处
But the way that you act isn't good for your health
我的儿子啊 不要再在大街上亲吻男孩了
My son, stop kissing boys in the street
我的儿子啊 不要再和男孩亲密交往了”
My son, stop kissing boys in the street"
Uhhh...
Ohh...
我的父亲生命垂危
My daddy's dying
他终于意识到 我没有撒谎欺骗他
But he's finally realized I'm not lying
我们沉默对坐 却都露出了释然的微笑
We sit in silence but we're smiling
因为这一次 我们不再争吵
Because for once, we are not fighting
他说：“以前我无从知晓
He'd say, "There was no way of knowing
因为我从小被教导的是
'Cause all I was taught
男人只能爱上女人 但是现在我不确定了
Is men only love women, but now I'm not sure
我的儿子啊 继续亲吻你心爱的男孩吧
My son, keep kissing boys in the street
我的儿子啊 继续亲吻你心爱的男孩吧
My son, keep kissing boys in the street
孩子 我走了以后 继续去爱你喜欢的男孩吧”
When I'm gone, keep kissing boys in the street"
