This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

It was so nice throwin' big parties

盛大なパーティーを開いてとても楽しかった

Jump into the pool from the balcony

バルコニーからプールに飛び込む

Everyone swimmin' in a champagne sea

誰もがシャンパンの海で泳いでいる

And there are no rules when you show up here

ここに来たらルールはない

Bass beat rattling the chandelier

ベースが シャンデリアを揺らす

Feelin' so Gatsby for that whole year

この一年ずっとギャツビー気分

So why'd you have to rain on my parade?

なぜ私のパレードに水を差すの？

I'm shaking my head and locking the gates

首を振って門を閉じる

This is why we can't have nice things, darlin'

これが私たちが素晴らしいものを手に入れることができない理由です、ダーリン

Because you break them, I had to take them away

あなたが壊すから、取り上げなきゃいけなかった

This is why we can't have nice things, honey (Oh)

これが私たちが良いものを持てない理由です、ハニー (Oh)

Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

私の悪口が聞こえないと思った？

This is why we can't have nice things

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

It was so nice being friends again

また友達になれて最高だった

There I was, giving you a second chance

そこに私がいた、あなたに二度目のチャンスを与える

But you stabbed me in the back while shakin' my hand

でもあなたは私の手を振りながら私の背中を刺した

And therein lies the issue, friends don't try to trick you

問題はそこ、友達は騙そうとしない

Get you on the phone and mind-twist you

電話で洗脳しようとする

And so I took an axe to a mended fence

修復した柵に斧を振り下ろした

But I'm not the only friend you've lost lately (Mm-mm)

でもお母さんに紹介する子じゃない

If only you weren't so shady

だからあなたは

This is why we can't have nice things, darlin' (Yeah)

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

Because you break them, I had to take them away

あなたが壊すから、取り上げなきゃいけなかった

This is why we can't have nice (Nice things) things (Baby), honey

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

私の悪口が聞こえないと思った？

This is why we can't have

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

Here's a toast to my real friends

本当の友達に乾杯

They don't care about the he-said, she-said

噂なんか気にしない

And here's to my baby

そして私のベイビーに

He ain't readin' what they call me lately

最近何て呼ばれてるか読んでない

And here's to my mama

そしてママに

Had to listen to all this drama

こんなドラマ全部聞かなきゃいけなかった

And here's to you

そしてあなたに

'Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do

だって許しはいいこと

Haha, I can't even say it with a straight face (This is why we can't have)

ハハ、真顔で言えないけど

This is why we can't have nice things, darlin' (Darlin')

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

Because you break them, I had to take them away (Away)

あなたが壊すから、取り上げなきゃいけなかった

This is why we can't have nice (Uh, uh) things (Oh, no), honey (Baby, oh)

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

私の悪口が聞こえないと思った？

This is why we can't have (Oh) nice (Oh, no) things, darlin'

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン

(And here's to my real friends; Oh)

そして私のベイビーに

Because you break them, I had to take them (Away)

あなたが壊したから、私はそれらを奪わなければならなかった（離れて）

(And here's to my baby; Oh)

そして私のベイビーに

Nice things (Oh, no), honey

Nice things (Oh, no), honey

(They didn't care about that he-said, she-said)

(彼も彼女も)

Did you think I wouldn't hear all the things you said about me?

私の悪口が聞こえないと思った？

This is why we can't have nice things

だからいいものが持てないの、ダーリン
