Alanis is a Bitch / The McGill Daily
The McGill Daily是McGill大學的一份報紙,詳細來歷我還沒搞清楚,我看到了一篇標題為Alanis is a Bitch的文章,覺得很有趣.
文章內容主要是說Alanis Morissette這次出的新專輯將自己過去的感情關係描述出來,那些不堪的過去,他曾經有過的一些好色年紀又大的男朋友.作者認為Alanis過去一直都是以自傳式歌手的身分登上舞台,何以直到第五張專輯才寫出這些過去? 原來是因為市場需求的關係! 那些過去是私人的,會令當事人尷尬的,她過去都一直隱避不談,直到現在,她的歌唱生涯面臨瓶頸時,她需要這樣的突破才能重新找回她的歌迷.
作者是很喜歡Alanis Morissette的,即使他發現了她的市場策略--將自己以受害者的姿態出現;即使他寫下這篇文章,他還是喜歡Alanis. 我為什麼會注意到這篇文章,也是因為我喜歡Alanis,我認同作者的說法,但是流行音樂市場不就是這樣? 真實的部分很少,可是,開心就好!

Hands Clean
If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and
If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much
Ooh this could be messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this
You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
You're kind of my prot嶲?and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me
I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian
I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it
Ooh this could get messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this
what part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
what part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
what with this distance it seems so obvious?
Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family
We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
I might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body
Ooh this could be messy and
Ooh I don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime
