两千零六年夏天 我上了杂志封面
In the summer of two thousand six, I graced the magazine cover
可惜是三人合影 so, so
But sadly, it was a trio shot, so, so
我站在冠军左边 陪她嬉皮笑脸
I stood to the champion's left, wearing a playful grin
她样样都不如我 whoa-whoa
She can't compare to me at all, whoa-whoa
我是四川省谭某某
I am Tan Something from Sichuan province
我是老超女谭某某
I am the old super girl, Tan Something
两千零七年夏天 我发了一张唱片
In the summer of two thousand seven, I released an album
可惜我忙著商演 钱钱
But I was busy with commercial gigs, money, money
给妈妈买了新房 奶奶也如愿以偿
Bought my mom a new house, my grandma's wish fulfilled
男朋友长得漂亮 嘿咻
My boyfriend is good-looking, hey hey
我是坚强的谭某某
I am the strong one, Tan someone
我是无敌的谭某某
I am the invincible, Tan someone
我是空虚的谭某某
I am the empty one, Tan someone
我是老去的谭某某
I am the aging one, Tan someone
你签我签我好几年
You promised me, you promised me for many years
你欠我欠我好多钱
You owe me, you owe me so much money
你夸我夸我活神仙
You praise me, you praise me as a living immortal
你骂我骂我没唱片
You scold me, you scold me for not having a record
两千零八年夏天 我开了一间酒吧
In the summer of two thousand and eight, I opened a bar
幻想著靠它赚钱买自由
Dreaming of making money from it to buy freedom
朋友们白吃白喝 捧得我神魂颠倒
Friends, feasting and drinking, have me completely entranced
算算账赔了十万 吼吼
Counting the bills, I've lost a hundred thousand, oh oh
自以为是的谭某某
That self-righteous Tan, you know who
风光不再的谭某某
The once-glorious Tan, now in decline
恶习难改的谭某某
The bad habits of Tan, so hard to change
讨厌自己的谭某某
Loathing myself, that's just Tan
你说我说我没出息
You say, I say, I'm just a nobody
你给我给我滚出去
You tell me to get out, just go away
你和我和我谈恋爱
You and I, together in this love affair
你等我等我来伤害
You wait for me, I’m coming to hurt you
十分拧巴的谭某某
Very twisted Tan, whoever that may be
十分缓慢的谭某某
Very slow Tan, whoever that may be
十分想家的谭某某
Very homesick Tan, whoever that may be
十分努力的谭某某
Very hardworking Tan, whoever that may be

La-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, hee
Yee-hee-yee
Yay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay
Yay-yeah
两千零九年夏天 被音乐抽了一鞭
In the summer of two thousand and nine, music whipped me with a lash
多想回到简单的从前
How I long to return to the simple days of the past
我要唱我的唱片 多年后用来纪念
I want to sing my record, to commemorate in years to come
在老去之前快乐无边
Before we grow old, let happiness know no bounds
