The Dark Of The Matinée

You take your white finger
你伸出白皙的手指
Slide the nail under
用指尖
the top and bottom buttons
把我上衣的扣子
of my blazer
从上往下一颗颗解开
relax the fraying wool
脱去旧毛衣
slacken ties and I'm
解开领带，而我
not to look at you in the shoe
无法与你感同身受
but the eyes find the eyes
但双眼却找到了彼此

去走廊和学校食堂那儿找我
find me and follow me
跟上我
through corridors, refectories and files
悄悄地跟我一起开溜
you must follow, leave
离开这间学术工厂
this academic factory
我们在剧院的午后场碰头
you will find me in the Matinee
漆黑一片的午后场
the dark of the matinee
午后场是最佳选择
it's better in the Matinee
漆黑的午后场归我所有
the dark of the Matinee is mine
是啊，我如鱼得水
yes it's mine
我计划着每一段路

只为与你不期而遇
I time every journey
我出乎意料地
to bump into you
成功吸引了你的注意，向你倾吐
accidentally I
我讨厌的那些男孩
charm you and tell you
我讨厌的那些女孩
of the boys I hate
我讨厌的那些字眼
all the girls I hate
我讨厌的那些衣服
all the words I hate
还有，我永远也不会变成我讨厌的模样
all the clothes I hate
而你微微一笑，给我讲了一些你喜欢的东西
how I'll never be anything I hate
你说如果做自己喜欢的事情
you smile, mention something that you like
你就会过得开开心心
how you'd have a happy life
去走廊和学校食堂那儿找我
if you did the things you like
跟上我

悄悄地跟我一起开溜
find me and follow me

是啊，我如鱼得水
it's better in the Matinee
那么，现在我上了英国广播公司二号台
the dark of the Matinee is mine
跟泰里·沃根（BBC著名的电台主持人）聊着我是怎么成功的
yes it's mine
我成就了什么，却说不清楚

但他一脸敬畏
So I'm on BBC2 now
他满脸笑容
telling Terry Wogan how I made it.
我春风得意地夸夸其谈
What I made is unclear now
是啊，轻而易举
but his deference is
是啊，小菜一碟
and his laughter is
去走廊和学校食堂那儿找我
my words and smile are so easy now
跟上我
yes, it's easy now
悄悄地跟我一起开溜
yes, it's easy now
