老歌亂談(483)Mrs. Robinson
這首《Mrs. Robinson》首次出現是在1967的電影《The Graduate》( 台譯：畢業生 ) 中，卻非特別為了電影所寫，而是在Paul Simon所提供的兩首歌遭電影導演Mike Nichols「打槍」後，勉強丟出來的歌曲。此曲內容原是有關Mrs. Roosevelt和Joe DiMaggio，但卻受到Nichols的青睞，並建議將Mrs. Roosevelt改成了Mrs. Robinson。
Mrs. Roosevelt指的是美國羅斯福總統夫人，她除了本身也是位政治人物，並且是在位最久的「第一夫人」 ( 16年 )。而Joe DiMaggio是美國洋基隊的棒球明星，其最知名的應是連續56場擊出安打紀錄。而另項讓人樂道的則是曾娶美國影星瑪麗蓮夢露 ( Marilyn Monroe ) 為妻。此首《Mrs. Robinson》推出後，因歌詞中提及其名，而使得Joe DiMaggio甚為憤怒，後經溝通說明歌曲中是以他作為以往英雄的代表，才得以釋懷。

電影《畢業生》講的是一位剛從學校畢業的青年 ( 達斯汀霍夫曼飾 )，對於人生尚無明確的目標，此時受到中年熟女Robinson太太的引誘，而與之發生了親密的關係，之後又喜歡上了Robinson太太的女兒，是一部禁忌話題的電影。台灣當年上映時，將「母女」的關係改成了「姊妹」。

Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me. Aren't you?
And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know wo wo wo
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
Hey hey hey, hey hey hey
We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself
Look around you all you see are sympathetic eyes
Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home
And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know wo wo wo
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
Hey hey hey, hey hey hey
Hide it in a hiding place where no one ever goes
Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes
It's a little secret just the Robinsons affair
Most of all, you've got to hide it from the kids
Coo coo ca-choo, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know wo wo wo
God bless you, please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
Hey hey hey, hey hey hey
Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon
Going to the candidates' debate
Laugh about it, shout about it when you've got to choose
Every way you look at it you lose
Where have you gone, Joe Di Maggio?
Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you woo woo woo
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson?
"Joltin Joe has left and gone away"
Hey hey hey, hey hey hey
