【歌詞英文】
<去年聖誕節>
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away.
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special.
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye.
Tell me, baby,
Do you recognize me?
Well,
It's been a year,
It doesn't surprise me
(Merry Christmas)
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you,"
I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been.
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again.
[Chorus 2x]
Oh, oh, baby.
A crowded room,
Friends with tired eyes.
I'm hiding from you
And your soul of ice.
My god I thought you were someone to rely on.
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on.
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart.
A man under cover but you tore me apart, ooh-hoo.
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again.
[Chorus 2x]
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you my heart)
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special.
Special...
Someone...
這是一首很紅的聖誕歌曲，不僅是我們Eric老師的媽媽手機鈴聲，更是許多學校在舉辦聖誕歌曲比賽時的熱門選曲呢。只是說這首歌並不全然是歡樂和應景的氣氛就是了…
好，言歸正傳，在A段的第二部份第一句裡面有一句歌詞是這樣的“Once bitten and twice shy”，請問在英文中這應該要如何解釋呢？
(A) 一朝被蛇咬，十年怕草繩。
(B) 第一次總是比較不習慣，之後就會漸入佳境了。
(C) 人要知足，適當就好，以免過了頭，被人說貪心而丟臉。
答案：(A)
這句歌詞其實是來自於諺語“once bitten, twice shy”，表示說第一次嘗試某事而被咬了一口後，接下來要再做一次時，會顯得猶豫躊躇。因此<一朝被蛇咬，十年怕草繩。>就是最適合用來形容這種情況的中文成語了。
