Training Wheels是美国创作型女歌手Melanie Martinez(梅兰妮·马丁内兹)的一首单曲,收录在她的第一张专辑Cry Baby中。
Training Wheels直译即训练轮,也就是初学自行车时装在车上以保持平衡的辅助轮——这首歌也是关于爱与感情之间的平衡的。同时这首歌也是Cry Baby 专辑里唯一一首比较积极的关于爱的歌。Melanie在一次采访中表示:“这首歌说的是他骑乘着有辅轮的自行车,然后希望能够去掉辅轮而更进一步(地学习如何骑车)而我希望和他一起共同骑乘着一辆两轮(也就是去掉了辅轮)的自行车。”Training wheels(的去除)即隐喻着两人的关系更进一步。这个故事在MV里有两个场景但指代着相同的感情境地。
Riding down,riding down
骑着自行车,前行,前行
My hand on your seatThe whole way round
我的手扶在你的后座上,随你一路骑行
I carry band-aids on me now For when your soft hands hit thej agged ground
我随身带着创可贴,以备你摔倒,柔嫩的双手撞向坑坑洼洼的地面
Wheels aren't even touching the ground
骑得如此之快,车轮飞离地面
Scared to take them off but they're so worned out
你吓得甩开手,可自行车太过破旧停不下来
Promise I won't push you straight to the dirt If you promise me you'll take them off first
我保证不会把你推向泥洼,不过你得让我卸下你的辅轮
I love every thing you do
我爱你所做的一切
When you call me fucking dumb for the stupid shit I do
就算是当我做了傻事被你骂成白痴
Wanna ride my bike with you
我想要和你一起骑着我的自行车
Fully undressed,no training wheels left for you
没有装饰,没有辅轮
I'll pull them off for you
我将在你身后为你保驾护航
[x2]↑
Letting go,letting go
放手了,我放手了
Telling you things you already know
告诉你那些早已知晓的事情
I explode,I explode
我发怒,情绪激动
Asking you where you want us to go
只问你到底想让我们身归何处
You've been riding two wheelers all your life
你终其一生就像是骑行着没有辅轮的自行车,小心翼翼的把握着你人生的方向
It's not like I'm asking to be your wife
我的意愿并非是要让你一定娶我
Wanna make you mine,but that's hard to say
只是想要让你成为我的专属,可这却让我难于启齿
Is this coming off in a cheesy way?
还是因为这话本身就过于庸俗
I love everything you do
可是我爱你所做的一切
When you call me fucking dumb for the stupid shit I do
就算是当我做了傻事被你骂成白痴
Wanna ride my bike with you
只想要和你一起骑着我的自行车
Fully undressed,no training wheels left for you
没有装饰,没有辅轮
I'll pull them off for you
我将在你身后和你一起,为你保驾护航
[x2]↑
(Love every thing you do)
我爱你所做的一切
(Let me ride my bike with you)
就让我和你一起骑着我的自行车
(No training wheels left for you)
没有留下辅轮
I love everything you do
我爱你所做的一切
When you call me fucking dumb for the stupid shit I do
就算是当我做了傻事被你骂成笨蛋
Wanna ride my bike with you
只是想要和你一起骑着我的自行车
Fully undressed,no training wheels left for you
没有装饰,没有辅轮
I'll pull them off for you
我将在你身后为你保驾护航
[x2]↑
