Frank Sinatra&Pearl Bailey - A Little Learnin' Is A Dangerous Thing
A Little Learning Is A Dangerous Thing
Frank Sinatra
with (Pearl Bailey)
Hey, Pearl, what's bugging you, girl?
へイ、パ―ル、何が君をいらいらさせているの、お嬢さん?
(Too much knowledge, Frank, too much knowledge.)
(多過ぎる知識、フランク、多過ぎる知識)
Explain it to me.
僕にそれを説明して
(Well, it was down at school at the age of six.)
(いいわ、それは、六歳の時、学校で下りたの)
One of the real quiz kids.
正真正銘の変な子供の一人
(Yeah , so did reason and lightning touch.)
そう、だから、理由と気楽になる接触を求めた
Usual thought.
普通の考え方
(As time went on, I studied lots of, oh, the other things.)
時の経過と共に、私は、他の、あぁ、多くの事を学んだ
Uh huh, like a.
(No, most of them didn't hurt much.)
Well, I've had other teachers.
(Well I got my diploma, I was real real smart.)
In a pretty frame, huh?
(Of my knowledge there was no doubt.)
That's pretty obvious.
(Yeah but lately I've had the same, like in your words too,)
(It wasn't even a thought, let me tell you what I found out now.)
Look at the size of my ears, pour it on.
(You know it started with a man.)
Uh huh!
(And the man he was grand.)
Ain't that the truth.
(He had a lie that would make a bird sing.)
This kid really came on, I can see that,
'Cause you were much too smart to be afraid at the start.
(Frank, a little learnin' is a dangerous thing.)
Well, I'd like to hear some more.
(First he only wanted two.)
To?
(Then he changed it to few.)
Oh, you mean loot.
(I even loaned that man my watch and my ring.)
Oh, you lost your head, Pearl, completely,
'Cause you were hip to the fact that he would pay you right back.
(Yep, a little learning is a dangerous thing.)
Uh huh. Yes, with his sweetheart, his so discreet heart.
(Oh Frank, he had me doing things that I shouldn't do.)
That cad, ain't no denying, so sense in trying.
(Let me tell you, it is just as bad. My education's been like some book.)
Bet you had an encyclopedia.
(Yet now I know the score at last.)

Good-bye to All That ⅩⅣ Robert Graves 成田悦子訳
-
ⅩⅣ夏の進行と共に爆弾の新しいタイプや塹壕‐迫撃砲、より強烈な砲撃、改良されたガス‐マスク、規律の全般的強化がやって来た。僕達は新隊の第一大隊と合流し、比べてみると案山子のように思えた。僕達の大隊はカムブランやキュアンシ塹壕から出て行った、ベチューヌの兵士宿舎や隣接する村々共々。この時まで僕は第一分割の悲観論を...
