吉姆紧急住院
本人芳龄十六
I’m 16..
在学校已麻烦不断
Already in trouble at school
可惜还长一头金发
and unfortunately have blond hair.
妈妈开玩笑说天然金发的人
My mother liked to joke that natural blonds
通常比较自私
were usually selfish
而染成金发的人则是病态撒谎者
while dyed blonds were pathological liars.
吉姆是我的孪生哥哥
Jim is my twin.
我的唯一挚友
My only true friend.
吉姆是整个世界上那个
Jim was the one person in the whole world
我能谈得来的人
I could really talk to.
待在一起感觉自在的人
Who I felt comfortable with.
虽然听起来有些扯
That may sound kind of fucked up
但双胞胎就是这样
but it’s a twin thing.
别担心 总有一天你的头发会变褐色
Don’t worry, someday your hair will be brown
跟我的一样 那时候人们就会把你
like mine and then people will finally take you
当回事 然后头发将会变成灰色
seriously and then it’ll turn Grey.
不会变的
And they won’t.
每个家庭都总有那么一个人
In every family, there was that one person
充当家庭成员之间的粘合剂
that was the glue that held it all together.
我们家就是吉姆
That was Jim.
在妈妈消沉时
He was the one who could cheer mom up
他能逗她开心
when she got down.
给她带来不一样的感觉
That brought out something different in her.

We’d just moved from Michigan to Palos Verdes.
你瞧 老爸的梦想就是
You see, it was always my father’s dream
搬到加州来
to move to California.
做个心脏外科医生能名利双收
To be a heart surgeon to the rich and famous.
起初老妈对搬家还不确定
My mother wasn’t sure at first about moving.
她说对所有的瘦脸针都过敏
She said she was allergic to all the Botox
还有地震和运动
earthquakes and exercise.
但老爸坚持说阳光和海风
But my dad insisted that the sunshine and sea air
正是医生对她的建议
was just what the doctor ordered.
那个医生就是他自己
The doctor being him.
泳池怎么样？
How’s that pool?
哇 别把新房♥子弄湿了！
Whoa, don’t get the new house wet!
别… 别第一天就这样
Not on… Not on the first day.
