那可不一定 那可不一定
That's not for sure, that's not for sure.
那可不一定 (再来）那可不一定
That's not for sure (let's say) that's not for sure.
认不认真也不一定有样本
Being serious doesn't always guarantee a model.
有样本也不保证就不失真
Having a model doesn't ensure there won't be distortions.
那可不一定
That's not for sure.
不失真也不一定会得分
Not being distorted doesn't mean you'll score.
会得分也不保证就有可能
Scoring doesn’t guarantee it’s possible.
反正不一定
Anyway, it's not for sure.
没票根 没剧本
No ticket stubs, no script.
别研究 成分
Don't analyze the components.
对称不对称
Symmetric or not,
对等不对等
Equal or not,
没天份 有戏份
No talent, yet there's a role,
气氛会冷
The atmosphere might chill,
你要的是发问
What you want is to ask,
还是要下文
Or is it a follow-up you seek?
Oh别说永恒 好像说阿门
Oh, don't speak of eternity, it's like saying amen,
Oh谁要沉稳 安稳的灰尘
Oh, who wants stability, the calm of dust,
那可不一定
That’s not guaranteed,
其实谨慎也不一定不放任
In fact, being cautious doesn't mean you can't let go.
不放任也不保证就会单纯
Neither letting go nor assuring will guarantee simplicity.
那可不一定
Well, that's not certain.
再单纯也不一定不凶猛
No matter how pure, it doesn’t mean it isn't fierce.
不凶猛也不保证就不认真
Not fierce doesn't guarantee it won't be serious.
反正不一定
In any case, it's not certain.
没有可能 也会有本能
Where there's no possibility, instinct will still exist.
反正不一定
In any case, it's not certain.
合不合身 反正都是我的分身
Whether it fits or not, it's all just my reflection.
反正不一定
In any case, it's not certain.
Oh别说永恒 好像说阿门
Oh, don't speak of eternity, it's like saying Amen.
Oh谁要沉稳 安稳的灰尘
Oh, who wants to be steady, with the dust of tranquility?
那可不一定
Well, that's not certain.
Uh uh 猜不到 给你一个惊喜
Uh uh, can't guess? I'll give you a surprise!
在我心里 你真是了不起
In my heart, you truly are amazing.
莫文蔚你的声音让我感觉
Mò Wénwèi, your voice makes me feel...
Eh yi
Wu'yi那个唱腔像Silk一样 想欣赏＜爱＞或＜单人房双人床＞
Wu'yi, that singing tone is like silk, I want to admire <Love> or <Single Room Double Bed>
一直Till the break of dawn com'on
All the way 'til the break of dawn, come on!
其实谨慎也不一定不放任
In fact, being cautious doesn't always mean to let go.
不放任也不保证就会单纯
Not letting go doesn't guarantee simplicity.
那可不一定
That’s not necessarily the case
再单纯也不一定不凶猛
Even pure can still be fierce
不凶猛也不保证就不认真
Not fierce doesn’t guarantee a lack of seriousness
反正不一定
In any case, not necessarily
没有可能 也会有本能
Without possibility, instincts may still arise
反正不一定
In any case, not necessarily
合不合身 反正都是我的分身
Whether it fits or not, it’s still my reflection
反正不一定
In any case, not necessarily
Oh别说永恒 好像说阿门
Oh don’t speak of forever, it’s like saying Amen
Oh谁要沉稳 安稳的灰尘
Oh who craves steadiness, the calm dust
那可不一定
That’s not certain at all
Oh别说永恒 好像说阿门
Oh don't speak of eternity, it’s like saying amen
Oh谁要沉稳 却没有过程
Oh who wants to be steady but lacks the journey
痛快的过程
A swift and fulfilling journey
Oh别说永恒 好像说阿门
Oh don't speak of eternity, it’s like saying amen
Oh谁要沉稳 却没有过程
Oh who wants to be steady but lacks the journey
那可不一定
That’s not certain at all
