Love Potion No9

Love Potion No.9 - 張雨生

詞曲:張雨生

I took my troubles down to Madame Rue

You know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth

She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine

Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion No. 9

我將我的煩惱告訴露絲女士

你知道的 就是那個鑲著黃金牙齒的吉普塞人

她拿了個墊子和葡萄酒就坐在34號

賣著愛情魔藥第九號

I told her that I was a flop with chicks

I've been this way since 1956

She looked at my palm, and she made a magic sign

She said, what you need is Love Potion No. 9

我告訴她 我一直沒有女人緣

自1956年以來就一直維持這樣的狀態

她看著我的手掌，畫了一個神奇的符號

她説 你需要的是愛情魔藥第九號

*She bent down and turned around and gave me a wink

She said, I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink

It smelled like turpentine, it looked like Indian ink

I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink

她彎下身子 轉了一圈後對我眨眨眼

她説 我會把它從這個水槽裏補回來

它聞起來像松節油 而看上去像墨汁

我摒住呼吸 闔上眼 一飲而盡

I didn't know if it was day or night

I started kissin' everything in sight

But when I kissed that cop down at Thirty-Fourth and Vine

He broke my little bottle of Love Potion No. 9

我不知道現在是白天還是黑夜

我開始親吻在視線裏的任何事物

但是當我親吻那在34號的警察和葡萄酒

他打破了我小瓶子裏的愛情魔藥第9號*

*Repeat
