震耳欲聾的樂聲間，聽見自我的聲音

 Less Than Jake - Overrated (Everything Is)

[Verse 1]
Maybe I'm jaded and bored
也許是我太既無聊又厭倦
Always looking for more
總是尋找著新的事物
Waiting 'round for the next big fix, I know
等待著下一次的大改變 我知道
I'm a wreck, I'm a mess
我是個廢物 沒啥用處
But I couldn't care less
但我一點都不在乎
Don't know what it would take to change me
不知道要花費多大代價才能改變我

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's so afraid to be different
人們害怕與眾不同
Please excuse me now if I don't get it
請原諒我完全無法認同

[Chorus]
But I think sex is overrated
我認為性愛被高估了
So is always getting wasted
所以總是喝得爛醉
Designer drugs and dead-end jobs
毒品和沒有未來的工作
And classic rock is so outdated
還有過時的經典搖滾
I'm so sick of therapy
我厭倦了心理治療
And all the things it's done to me
以及其對我做的一切
How can I be satisfied
我該如何感到滿足
When everything is overrated?
當一切都如此被高估?

[Verse 2]
Maybe the problem is me
也許我才是問題的根源
But I won't make believe
但我不會相信
And I can't take this mediocrity
更無法接受平庸的自己
What if this is a test?
如果這是個測驗呢?
And I deserve what I get?
我活該如此嗎?
Will I wake up with all the answers?
抑或當我醒來時會得到解答?

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's too afraid to be different
人們害怕與眾不同
Please excuse me now if I don't listen
請原諒我現在完全不想聽

[Chorus]
But I think sex is overrated
我認為性愛被高估了
So is always getting wasted
所以總是喝得爛醉
Designer drugs and dead-end jobs
毒品和沒有未來的工作
And classic rock is so outdated
還有過時的經典搖滾
I'm so sick of therapy
我厭倦了心理治療
And all the things it's done to me
以及其對我做的一切
How can I be satisfied
我該如何感到滿足
When everything is overrated?
當一切都如此被高估?

[Post-Chorus]
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah (When everything is overrated)
(當一切都被高估)
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah (When everything is overrated)
((當一切都被高估)

[Bridge]
Can't stand the normal
無法忍受平庸
Can't stand the ordinary
無法忍受平凡
Find me anything that's extraordinary
請提供我非凡的體驗
Show me something
讓我看看
Show me anything
什麼都可以
Am I the only one? Am I the only one?
難道只有我 難道只有我這麼想？

[Chorus]
But I think sex is overrated
我認為性愛被高估了
So is always getting wasted
所以總是喝得爛醉
Designer drugs and dead-end jobs
毒品和沒有未來的工作
And classic rock is so outdated
還有過時的經典搖滾
I'm so sick of therapy
我厭倦了心理治療
And all the things it's done to me
以及其對我做的一切
How can I be satisfied
我該如何感到滿足
When everything is overrated?
當一切都如此被高估?

[Post-Chorus]
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah (When everything is overrated)
(當一切都被高估)
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah (When everything is overrated)
((當一切都被高估)



Less Than Jake於1992年在佛羅里達組成，
曲風主要為Pop punk與Ska punk，
算是2000年龐克搖滾的重要推手之一。

這次分享的歌曲收錄在其2006年的第六張專輯"In with the Out Crowd"中，
這首歌由LTJ與知名美國歌手Holly Knight一起合作撰寫，
主要描述對於他人著迷的事物感到無趣，
而自己總覺得格格不入的感受。

另外該專輯中也收錄了LTJ我最愛的歌曲"The Rest of My Life"，
之前也有翻譯過可以回頭找找。
