※ 引述《peterhelen (彼得海倫)》之銘言：
: 我現在大三，這是國三時的英文老師放給我們聽的，
: 是男生（樂團？！）唱的，有點搖滾吧？！
: 歌詞記不熟了，
: 只記得「............the other day.」
: 「..............in a usual way.」
: 內容是在描寫爸爸覺得小孩好像很快就長大了，
: 自己卻都沒有好好參與、體驗、陪伴之類的感嘆，
: 歌詞好像還有把小孩比喻成小貓，
: 希望大家可以幫我找這首歌，謝謝。
一你提供的..
「............the other day.」
: 「..............in a usual way.」這兩個線索
和把 " 小孩比喻成小貓 "
不知道我猜的對不對..
請問是這首嗎?
歌名: Cats in the cradle
演唱者: Harry Chapin
歌詞:
A child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
And he was talking 'fore I knew it
And as he grew, he said :
I'm gonna be like you, dad
You know I'm gonna be like you
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you coming home? dad
I don't know when
But we'll have a good time then, son
You know we'll have a good time then
My son turned ten just the other day, he said :
Thanks for the ball, dad, come on let's play
Can you teach me to throw ?
I said not today,I got a lot to do
He said that's okay
And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
It said I'm gonna be like him, yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him
Well he came from college just the other day
So much like a man I just had to say
Son I'm proud of you, can we sit for a while?
He shook his head, and said with a smile
What I'd really like, dad, is to borrow the car keys
See you later, can I have them please?
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you coming home? dad
I don't know when
But we'll have a good time then, son
You know we'll have a good time then
I've long since retired, my son's moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, I'd like to see you, if you don't mind
He said : I'd love to, dad, if I could find the time
You see my new job's a hassle and the kids got the flu
But it's been sure nice talking to you, yeah
Sure nice talking to you
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me, yeah
My boy was just like me
希望能幫到你..........
