Bad Cover Version
Versi yang Buruk
Oh, the word's on the street, you've found someone
new
Oh, ada kata di jalan, kau telah menemukan seseorang yang
baru
If he looks nothing like me, I'm so happy for you
Jika dia tak mirip denganku, aku sangat senang
I heard an old girlfriend has turned to the church
Aku mendengar pacar lama telah berpaling ke gereja
She's trying to replace me but it'll never work
Dia mencoba menggantikanku tapi tak akan berhasil
'Cos every touch reminds you of
Karena setiap sentuhan mengingatkanmu pada
Just how sweet it could have been
Betapa manisnya itu
And every time he kisses you
Dan setiap kali dia menciummu
It leaves behind the bitter taste of saccharin
Itu meninggalkan rasa pahit sakarin (pemanis buatan) yang
pahit
A bad cover version of love is not the real thing
Versi cinta yang buruk bukanlah hal yang nyata
Bikini-clad girl on the front who invited you in
Gadis berpakaian bikini di depan yang mengundangku masuk
Such great disappointment when you got him home
Seperti kekecewaan ketika kau membawanya pulang
The original was so good, the one you no longer
own
Yang aslinya sangat bagus, yang tak kau miliki lagi
And every touch reminds you of
Dan setiap sentuhan mengingatkanmu
Just how sweet it could have been
Betapa manisnya itu
And every time he kisses you
Dan setiap kali dia menciummu
You get the taste of saccharin
Kau mendapatkan rasa sakarin
It's not easy to forget me
Itu tak mudah melupakanku
It's so hard to disconnect
Itu sangat sulit tuk memutuskannya
When it's electronically reprocessed
Ketika diproses secara elektronik
To give a more life-like effect
Untuk memberikan efek yang lebih hidup
Ah, sing your song
Ah, nyanyikan lagumu
About all the sad imitations that got it so wrong
Tentang semua imitasi sedih yang begitu salah
It's like a later Tom and Jerry
Ini seperti "Tom and Jerry" selanjutnya
When the two of them could talk
Ketika mereka berdua bisa berbicara
Like the Stones since the eighties
Seperti The Rolling Stones sejak tahun 80an
Like the last days of Southfork
Seperti hari-hari terakhir di Southfork
Like Planet of the Apes on TV
Seperti "Planet of the Apes" di televisi
The second side of 'Til the Band Comes In
Sisi kedua 'Til the Band Comes In (Album Scott Walker)
Like an own-brand box of cornflakes
Seperti kotak sereal jagung merek sendiri
He's going to let you down my friend
