TRINA: Jason, if you want a Bar Mitzvah

But I have to know

I've addressed the invitations

Here's your chance to give me Hell
你如果要无情拒绝,时间就是现在
If you think it's bust
如果你觉得这糟糕透顶
Then it's probably just
那么也许就按着
As well

Can't we wait 'til he's out?

That's what bar mitzvahs should be all about!

When, or if

But the hall is booked
但场地已经预定
And the band's been retained
乐队也已雇好
So, Jason, please
所以,杰森,请吧
What we'll do is your decision

There's no right and there's no wrong
这事并无对错
Just say yes or no
只需要你肯定或否认
And we'll promise to go along
我们保证会顺着你的意思
JASON: Finally, now, it's all my decision
到最后,现在这都是我的决定了
Like it's my bar mitzvah
就好像这真的是我的成人礼了
Just like nothing happened
就像无事发生过
Hell, let's have a party
天啊,我们来场派对
Just like nothing happened
就像无事发生
Why don't you make this dumb decision yourselves, okay?

MENDEL: Why don't we tell him
为什么我们不告诉他
That we don't have the answers?
我们也没有答案
And that life can be grim
告诉他生活可能暗无天日
Life's not all about him
生活不会围着他转
And things rarely go according to plan
事情常在预料外发展
Tell him things happen
告诉他有时坏事就是会降临
For no damned good reason
找不到什么该死的原因
That his lack of control
而他对此无力抗争
Kills what's best in your soul
这会杀死他灵魂里最好的部分
And this is the start
而这会成为他长大成人
To his becoming a man
的开端
TRINA: Holding to the ground
我扎根攀附在陆地
As the ground keeps shifting
当世界震动变形
MENDEL: Trying to keep sane
我努力保持清醒
As the rules keep changing
当规则变幻莫停
TRINA AND MENDEL: Keeping up my head
我抬着头
As my heart falls out of sight
即使心已消失在深渊
Everything will be alright
一切终会好起来
