“起床,起床,快起来!去洗脸,去刷牙,记得梳头!这是你的衣服你的鞋,有没有在听啊......”
日前,一段在美国悄然流行了颇久的视频在内地网站上大热,它便是一位美国老妈演唱的"唠叨之歌"!听过这首歌的网友无不惊叹:原来全世界的老妈唠叨起来都是“一样一样一样的啊”!
打开视频,一位身材微胖、短发、戴着眼镜的中年妇女傲然出场,一定是典型的严厉老妈形象。接下来,配合着意大利的经典乐曲《威廉泰尔序曲》,这位母亲在不到3分钟的时间里几乎一口气唱出了多达八九百字的歌词,从生活的方方面面把孩子管教了一遍不说,更将老妈的"蛮横"进行到底:"母亲的工作永不结束,你不需要知道理由,因为我说了算,我是你妈,你惟一的妈!"
据悉,创作并演唱这首《妈妈之歌》的是美国喜剧女演员安妮塔兰弗洛,今年48岁的她是《早安美国》的评论员之一,在生活中则是3个孩子的母亲。为了照顾小家伙们整天唠叨不停的她在一个偶然的机会下灵光闪现:"为什么不把唠叨谱成一首歌呢?"于是,她将自己每天常絮叨的话写成了歌词,也就是这首《妈妈之歌》。歌曲完成并发到网上后很快引起了强烈反响,截至目前,这首歌已经被翻译成了英文版、中文版、西班牙语版,甚至还有手语版。
歌词如下:
Get up nowGet up nowGet up out of bed
Wash your faceBrush your teethComb your sleepy headHere's your clothesAnd your shoes
Hear the words I said
Get up nowGet up and make your bed
Are you hot?Are you cold?Are you wearing that?
Where's your books and your lunch and your homework at?Grab your coat and your gloves and your scarf and hatDon't forget you got to feed the catEat your breakfast
The experts tell us it's the most important meal of allTake your vitamins so you will grow up one day to be big and tallPlease remember the orthodontist will be seeing you at three today?
Don't forget your piano lesson is this afternoonSo you must playDon't shovelChew slowlyBut hurry
The bus is hereBe carefulCome back hereDid you wash behind your ears?
Play outsideDon't play roughWould you just play fair?
Be politeMake a friendDon't forget to shareWork it outWait your turnNever take a dareGet alongDon't make me come down there
Clean your roomFold your clothesPut your stuff awayMake your bedDo it now
Do we have all day?Were you born in a barn?Would you like some hayCan you even hear a word I say?
Answer the phoneGet Off the phoneDon't sit so closeTurn it down
No texting at the tableNo more computer time tonightYour iPod's my iPod if you don't listen up
Where you going and with whom and what time do you think you're coming home?Saying thank you, please, excuse meMakes you welcome everywhere you roamYou'll appreciate my wisdomSomeday when you're older and you're grown
Can't wait 'til you have a couple little children of your ownYou'll thank me for the counsel I gave you so willingly
But right now
I thank you NOT to roll your eyes at meClose your mouth when you chewWould appreciateTake a biteMaybe twoOf the stuff you hateUse your forkDo not you burpOr I'll set you straightEat the food I put upon your plate
Get an A, Get the doorDon't get smart with meGet a GripGet in here I'll count to 3Get a jobGet a lifeGet a PhDGet a dose of...
I don't care who started itYou're grounded until your 36Get your story straightAnd tell the truth for once for heaven's sakeAnd if all your friends jumped off a cliffWould you jump too?
If I've said it once, I've said at least a thousand times before thatYou're too old to act this wayIt must be your father's DNALook at me when I am talkingStand up straight when you walkA place for everythingAnd everything must be in placeStop crying or I'll give you something real to cry about
Oh!
Brush your teethWash your faceGet your PJs onGet in bedGet a hugSay a prayer with MomDon't forgetI love you
**KISS**
And tomorrow we will do this all again because a mom's work never endsYou don't need the reason why
BecauseBecauseBecauseBecause
I said soI said soI said soI said so
I'm the MomThe momThe momThe momThe momTa-da
而最有趣的还在后面:由于《妈妈之歌》的迅速走红,不少当爸爸的观众开始给安妮塔写信,要求她为爸爸们写一首歌。于是,安妮塔在和这些"爸爸"们讨论商议过之后很快创作出了一首无比简洁的《爸爸之歌》,与《妈妈之歌》絮叨不停的歌词相比,《爸爸之歌》的歌词只有一句:"好吧!问你妈!问你妈!"《爸爸之歌》视频欣赏:
