小时候就很喜欢听的一首歌,好像是上初中的时候,第一次在磁带里听这首歌,就喜欢它欢乐的节奏。今天顺便整理下这首歌的资料,歌词没有翻译完,改天吧。
本首歌曲的作曲艾伦-梅肯(Alan Menken)不是奥斯卡上的陌生人,他参与创作的《阿拉丁》(Aladdin)插曲《A Whole New World》和《风中奇缘》(Pocahontas)主题曲《风之彩》(Colors of the Wind)也是奥斯卡获奖作品。
英文歌词:
The seaweed is always greener in somebody else\'s lake
You dream about going up there. But that is a big mistake
Just look at the world around you, right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you. What more is you looking for?
Under the sea. Under the sea
Darling it\'s better down where it\'s wetter. take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day, out in the sun they slave away
While we\'re devoting full time to floating under the sea
Down here all the fish is happy as off through the waves they roll
The fish on the land ain\'t happy. They\'re sad because they in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky. They are in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry. Guess who\'s going to be on the plate?
Under the sea. Under the sea
Nobody beat us, fry us and eat us in fricassee
We what the land folks loves to cook, under the sea we off their hook
We got no troubles. Life is the bubbles under the sea. Under the sea
Since life is sweet here We got the beat here naturally
Even the sturgeon an\' the ray. They get the urge \'n\' start to play
We got the spirit. You got to hear it. Under the sea
The newt play the flute
The carp play the harp
The plaice play the bass
And they soundin\' sharp
The bass play the brass
The chub play the tub
The fluke is the duke of soul
(Yeah)
The ray he can play
The lings on the strings
The trout rockin\' out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it\'s at
An\' oh that blowfish blow
Under the sea
Under the sea
When the sardine
Begin the beguine
It\'s music to me
What do they got? A lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean band
Each little clam here
know how to jam here
Under the sea
Each little slug here
Cuttin\' a rug here
Under the sea
Each little snail here
Know how to wail here
That\'s why it\'s hotter
Under the water
Ya we in luck here
Down in the muck here
Under the sea
歌词翻译:
水草总是别人湖里的绿
你梦想着能去那里,但这是个大错误
就看看你周围的世界吧,就是这里,在洋底
这些美妙的东西在你周围,你还在找什么呢?
在海底,在海底
亲爱的,最好还是在更湿润的地方。听我说
在岸上,他们整天工作,在太阳底下,像奴隶一样
而我们把所有的时间花在海底畅游
在这里所有的鱼都很幸福,滚滚海浪里嬉戏
陆地上的鱼可不幸福。他们悲伤因为他们住在盆里
但盆里的鱼还是幸运的,他们还没有遇到更糟糕的命运
有一天,当他们的老板觉得饿了,猜猜盘子里的会是什么?
在海底,在海底
没人打我们,炸我们,在酒烩类的菜里吃我们
我们这些陆上上人们喜欢做成菜的东西,在海底远离他们的鱼钩
我们没有麻烦,生活就是在海底吐泡泡,在海底
因为生活在这里是甜蜜的,我们在这里自然而然地合拍
Even the sturgeon an\' the ray. They get the urge \'n\' start to play
(这句没明白啥意思)
我们拥有精神。你应该听听。在海底
