"Scrambled eggs, Oh, baby how I love your legs."
(炒蛋,噢,寶貝我愛煞你的腿。)
無意間翻一本澳洲買回來的童書,說Beatles 樂團膾炙人口的 ”Yesterday “,原先的歌是:
"Scrambled eggs, Oh, baby how I love your legs."
後來 Paul McCartney去葡萄牙 Algarve度假時靈感湧至所寫的。後來才出現在大家熟知的Yesterday 歌詞 :
“Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.”
這個過程,我覺得挺搞笑的!其實那個「炒蛋」歌詞也挺有意思的,更貼近人心阿!
昨天在從台中回來的路上,用i-phone放音樂,Sunny指名要聽 “Hey! Jude.”我不禁哇拉拉介紹起 Beatles的背景,母子兩也回一起回憶起去利物浦搶Beatles紀念品的快樂往事。Sunny 小小年紀不能理解,John Lennon &Paul McCartney 最後為何要各自單飛?甚至簡約成這是John Lennon最後慘遭暗殺的『處罰』。小孩短暫的生命,豈能理解「人事全非」的尷尬處境?這需要多一些生命歷練,或多一些電影、小說,來填補、想像。

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it look as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
oh, I believe in yesterday, Mm
