布兰迪·卡莉(Brandi Carlile)是第61届格莱美奖收获提名奖项最多的女歌手,她的第六张专辑By The Way, I Forgive You获最佳年度专辑提名,而歌曲The Joke则获年度制作与年度歌曲提名。The Joke是一首十分大气的歌曲,旋律铿锵,荡气回肠,为那些仍备受欺凌却忍气吞声的人们呐喊着。

You're feeling nervous, aren't you boy

With your quiet voice and impeccable style

Don't ever let them steal your joy

And your gentle ways

To keep them from running wild

They can kick dirt in your face

Dress you down

and tell you that your place is in the middle

when they hate the way you shine

I see you tugging on your shirt

Trying to hide inside of it

and hide how much it hurts

Let them laugh while they can

Let them spin

let them scatter in the wind

I have been to the movies

l've seen how it ends

And the joke's on them

You get discouraged, don't you girl

It's your brother's world for a while longer

We gotta dance with the devil on a river

To beat the stream

Call it living the dream call it kicking the ladder

They come to kick dirt in your face

To call you weak and then displace you

After carrying your baby on your back across the desert

I saw your eyes behind your hair

And you're looking tired but you don't look scared

Let them laugh while they can

Let them spin let them scatter in the wind

I have been to the movies l've seen how it ends

And the joke's on them

Let them laugh while they can

Let them spin

let them scatter in the wind

I have been to the movies l've seen how it ends

And the joke's on them

參考译文

男孩,你感觉到紧张,是吗?

带着你的沉静和无暇的品行

不要让他们偷走你的快乐

还有你的温柔

别被他们控制

他们可以将污泥踢到你脸上

并狠狠斥责你

告诉你你与他们格格不入

当他们讨厌你的光芒

我看见你穿上衬衫

试图将自己藏在里面

来掩饰你有多受伤

让他们尽管嘲笑吧

让他们尽管说吧

让他们随风消散吧

我知道结局会如何

最后他们成了笑话

女孩,你气馁了,是吗?

这个世界被他们占领了太久

我们必须在河边与魔鬼共舞

才能和激流抗衡

活在梦里,不再醒来

他们将污泥踢到你脸上

说你软弱,再将你取代

在你背着孩子穿过沙漠后

你看起来筋疲力尽

但毫无畏惧

让他们尽管嘲笑吧

让他们尽管说吧

让他们随风消散吧

我知道结局会如何

最后他们成了笑话
