 歌手简介了解“Not ready to make nice”的契机所在
 


 Lyrics

Not ready to make nice    by  Dixie Chicks

Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting.

I'm through with doubt,
There's nothing left for me to figure out. 
I've paid a price,
And I'll keep paying.

I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down ,
I'm still mad as hell,
And I don't have time,
To go round and round and round.
It's too late to make it right.
I probably wouldn't if I could,
Cause I'm mad as hell,
Can't bring myself to do what it is,
You think I should.

I know you said,
Why can't you just get over it.
It turned my whole world around,
And I kind of like it.

I made my bed, and I sleep like a baby,
With no regrets and I don't mind saying,
It's a sad sad story,
When a mother will teach her daughter,
That she ought to hate a perfect stranger.
And how in the world,
Can the words that I said,
Send somebody so over the edge,
That they'd write me a letter,
Saying that I better shut up and sing,
Or my life will be over.

I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell,
And I don't have time,
To go round and round and round.
It's too late to make it right.
I probably wouldn't if I could,
Cause I'm mad as hell,
Can't bring myself to do what it is,
You think I should.

I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell,
And I don't have time,
To go round and round and round.
It's too late to make it right.
I probably wouldn't if I could,
Cause I'm mad as hell,
Can't bring myself to do what it is,
You think I should.

What it is,
You think I should.

Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting.

 Words and phrases

1. Dixie Chicks:美国乡村女子乐队“南方小鸡”,又称“狄克西女子合唱团”。

美国俚语中,“chick”表示“少女或少妇”,由此,“Dixie Chicks”有时也被称为“南方妞儿”。

“Dixie”常用来指代美国南部各州,因19世纪末一首颇为流行的歌曲“I wish I was in Dixie”被大众广泛接受。词源上,有观点认为,dixie源于法语词“dix”(10)。此外,新奥尔良地方银行发行的10美元钞票上也曾一度出现过“dix”字样。

2. be through with:结束、与…不再有联系

都说现在分手率、离婚率奇高,短语“be through with”这时似乎也可大派用场,如:I'm through with him.(我已经同他分手了。)
