It’s been a really really messed up week
Seven days of torture, seven days of bitter
And my girlfriend went and cheated on me
She’s a California dime but it’s time for me to quit her
La la la, whatever, la la la, it doesn’t matter, la la la, oh well, la la la
We’re going at it tonight tonight
There’s a party on the rooftop top of the world
Tonight tonight and were dancing on the edge of the Hollywood sign
I don’t know if I’ll make it but watch how good I’ll fake it
It's all right, all right, tonight, tonight
I woke up with a strange tattoo
Not sure how I got it, not a dollar in my pocket
And it kinda looks just like you
Mixed with Zach Galifianakis
La la la, whatever, la la la, it doesn’t matter, la la la, oh well, la la la
Repeat
You got me singing like
Woah, come on, ohh, it doesn’t matter, woah, everybody now, ohh
Just don’t stop let’s keep the beat pumpin’
Keep the beat up, lets drop the beat down
It’s my party dance if I want to
We can get crazy let it all out
Repeat
It's you and me and were runnin this town
And it's me and you and were shakin the ground
And ain’t nobody gonna tell us to go cause this is our show
Everybody
Woah, come on, ohh, all you animals
Woah, let me hear you now, ohh
Just singing like
Woah, come on, ohh, all you party people
Woah, all you singletons, ohh, even the white kids
It’s my party dance if I want to，we can get crazy let it all out. 如果我愿意这将是我的舞曲，我们可以变得疯狂让伤心全部逝去。如果你愿意，《听歌学英语》栏目也将是你忠实的伙伴。刚刚大家听到的这首歌叫做Tonight Tonight，来自于Hot Chelle Rae。下面我们来了解歌词大意。
It’s been a really really messed up week.这真是非常糟糕的一周。
mess up 混乱；弄糟
Don't mess up my hair: I've just combed it.
别把我的头发弄乱，我刚梳好。
歌词中的messed up作为定语表示“弄糟的，混乱的”。
Seven days of torture, seven days of bitter.七天的折磨，七天的苦涩。
Torture既可以做名词也可以作动词，表示“拷问；痛苦或者（使）痛苦”。
She suffered the torture of toothache. 她因牙痛而痛苦。
在这个句子中，torture是名词，suffer the torture of意为“遭受……的折磨”。
He tortured his prisoners. 他拷打犯人。
在这个句子中torture是动词，表示“拷问、拷打”。
My firlfriend went and cheated on me. 朋友离开并欺骗了我。
cheat vt. 欺骗；作弊I would rather fail than cheat in the examination.
我宁愿考不及格，也不愿意考试作弊。
歌词中的cheat on是一个固定短语，表示“对……不忠”。再来听一个例句：
I would never cheat on my girlfriend. She is everything I want.
我永远都不会对我女朋友不忠，她是我想要的一切。
There’s a party on the rooftop top of the world.今晚在世界的屋顶会有场聚会。
Top of the world: 世界之巅。On top of the world 作为习惯用语意思是：非常得意，非常高兴。
Yesterday I felt like I was on top of the world.
昨天我感觉好极了。
I don’t know if I’ll make it but watch how good I’ll fake it.
我不知道自己是否能处理好但是我会努力使自己假装好。
这一句说的是失恋之后很伤心，但歌手要装得一切都很好。
Fake有三个词性，我们通过例句来体会：
I can't believe he sold me a lousy fake watch!
我真不敢相信,他居然卖给我一块假表!在这个句子中，fake是形容词，意思是“假的”。
On closer examination the painting was proved to be a fake. 再经仔细观察，证实那幅画是膺品。
在这个句子中，fake是名词，意思是“假货”。Fake作名词还可以表示“骗子，欺骗”。
He faked his father's signature. 他伪造父亲的签字。在这个句子中，fake是动词，含义是伪造，假造。
我记得在上小学的时候，老师要求我们回家后背诵课文给父母听，而且需要父母签字。当时我实在是背不出了，所以就faked my father's signature. 伪造了我父亲的签字。不知道正在收听节目的你，是不是也和我有过相同的经历呢？
