Tough Love - Patty-Cake
Lyrics by:Layne Stein/Anthony Wakim
Composed by:Layne Stein/Anthony Wakim
Ever since I was a girl my own mother vowed
自我小时候起 我母亲就要我立誓
I must find the way to power through a noble brow
我一定要结识权贵 走向人生巅峰
I married once for love then my sences came
我曾为爱结婚 随后我就恢复了理智
I must marry for the stature of my husband's name
结婚是为了获取丈夫至高无上的地位
Onto marriage number two
步入第二段婚姻
I knew what I had to do
我知道必须得做点什么
And my poor husband fell ill in a year or two
可怜的丈夫在一两年之后病倒了
Solved problem number one now to problem number two
难题接踵而至 解决完第一个 现在要解决第二个
His doe-eyed little girl with gentle point of view
就是他那个眨着双无辜大眼睛的天真小女儿
Would I ship her off to school
我会送她去上学吗
No I told her if she stayed that she'd have
当然不了 我告诉她 如果想留下 她就得挣钱养活自己
To earn her keep and so she became the maid
于是她变成了家里的女佣
She was lazy
她好吃懒做
She was crazy
她很疯狂
She was talking to the mice
她最近和老鼠们说话
She was hopelessly naive so she had to pay the price
她天真地无药可救 所以要付出惨痛的代价
I moved her to the attic out of sight
我让她搬到阁楼去住
And out of mind
眼不见心不烦
I could have thrown her out but I'm benevolent and kind
我本可以把她扫地出门 可我于心不忍
Mother your heart's too big for you
母亲 你真是大人有大量
I knew what I had to do
我知道必须得做点什么
After all difficult children will take advantage of your good nature
毕竟 难相处的孩子会利用你的好脾气
So you lock them up throw away the key
把她们关起来 丢掉钥匙
There's one on every family tree
每个家族里都有一个人
Ungrateful
她忘恩负义
Hateful
可恨
Vile too the things she put you through
还很邪恶 是她让你变成这样
Break their spirit so they obey
击溃心理防线 他们就会变得百依百顺
Now they'll do anything you say
你说什么 他们统统照做
Maybe you'd call it cruel but others
也许你会说这很残忍
Would call it love
可其他人会说这是爱
Tough love
严厉的爱
I ask you is it a crime to strive
我问你 凡事追求完美
For perfection in all things
就十恶不赦吗
Oh no they're so cute when they're little but
小时候的她们 天真可爱
Then they grow up and just ruin everything
可她们长大之后 把一切都毁了
I never wanted children life was better on my own
我从未想过生孩子 我一个人会过得更好
All the screaming nagging chilled me to the bone
孩子停不下来的尖叫声简直要了我的命
But then one day I came across
可有一天 我遇见了
A flower growing free
一朵可以长生不老的花
It's magic kept me young so I kept it all for me
它能让我重拾年轻容颜 所以我将它占为己有
But someone dug it up now a baby
不过 有人把它挖了出来
Held the power
让那个宝宝拥有了这个魔力
So I borrowed her locked her up
所以我“借走”了她 把她锁起来
And hid her in a tower
藏在高塔里
Years went by oh the sacrifice
多年之后 噢 我做出了多大的牺牲啊
And against my better judgment
明知这样不可取
I fed her once or twice
我还是偶尔会去为她喂食
Teenagers now I know I wild eat their young
年轻人啊 现在我总算知道为什么野兽会吃掉自己的孩子了
But that's messy
但那也太麻烦了
Manipulation's easily more fun
操控他们更加容易 更为有趣
A little guilt a lot of force of

Remind them that without you they'd shrivel up and die
提醒她们 没有你 她们会枯萎而死
They only have themselves to blame
她们只能怪自己
If you'd been there you'd do the same
换位思考一下 如果你们是我 也会做同样的事
So work them hard 'til they fall in line

There's one way and it's only mine

Others would call it love tough love

Ugh her own tower with a water view and

She runs away the first chance she gets
