Tennis Court

《Tennis Court》是新西兰女歌手Lorde专辑《Pure Heroine》中的第二支单曲。

网球场是作为纯女英雄开场，是专辑的第一首歌。这首歌是Lorde在为即将到来的名誉而进行的深刻反省，比royals贵族的伴奏还要黑暗。这首歌的mv，只用了一个镜头，就是Lorde盯着摄像机，只在yeah的时候才张嘴。这个mv极好之处的是，她哥特式的打扮，还有闪烁的灯光。当你问她这个mv是什么意思，她说，不是任何事物都要追究它的意思的，我只是觉得还有很多的美，人们还没发现。

Don't you think that it's boring how people talk

Making smart with their words again, well I'm bored

Because I'm doing this for the thrill of it, killin' it

Never not chasing a million things I want

And I am only as young as the minute is full of it

Getting pumped up from the little bright things I bought

But I know they'll never own me（Yeah）

Baby, be the class clown

I'll be the beauty queen in tears

It's a new art form showing people how little we care（yeah）

We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear

Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah （yeah）

Pretty soon I'll be getting on my first plane

I'll see the veins of my city like they do in space

But my head's filling up fast with the wicked games, up in flames

How can I fuck with the fun again when I'm known?

And my boys trip me up with their heads again, loving them

Everything's cool when we're all in line, for the throne

But I know it's not forever（Yeah）

Baby, be the class clown

I'll be the beauty queen in tears

It's a new art form showing people how little we care（yeah）

We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear

Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah （yeah）

It looked alright in the pictures（yeah）

Getting caught soft with the triple is it

I fall apart, with all my heart

And you can watch from your window

And you can watch from your window

Baby, be the class clown

I'll be the beauty queen in tears

It's a new art form showing people how little we care（yeah）

We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear

Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah （yeah）

And talk it up like yeah（yeah）

And talk it up like yeah（yeah）

Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah（yeah）

And talk it up like yeah（yeah）

And talk it up like yeah（yeah）

Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah（Yeah）^[1]
