周末睁眼时,阳光已晒进房间,晒到了裹在身上的棉被里,把原本应该因为没有暖气寒气袭人的屋子烘得暖暖的,让沐浴其中的人莫名地心情大好。
有两个念头,同时冲进了还处于半沉睡状态的大脑中:一顿犒劳自己的英式Brunch(早午餐),一首应景的Sunny Afternoon。于是翻出收藏夹,找到Kinks(奇想乐队)专辑中的Sunny Afternoon,冲进了厨房。
The Kinks- Sunny Afternoon
The tax man's taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken everythin' I've got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon
Save me, save me
Save me from this squeeze
I've got a big fat momma tryin' to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime, in the summertime In the summertime
My girlfriend's gone off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well, give me two good reasons
Why I ought to stay
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In Summertime, in summertime
In summertime
听英伦入侵的摇滚总会让人忍不住地跟着摇摆起来,阳光十分配合地也晒进厨房里来。鸡蛋、培根、蘑菇、番茄、豆子、法兰克福肠和咖啡豆,也都在阳光下跟着摇摆起来,让人恍惚,不知自己是置身于价值千万的豪宅之中,还是一个挤了祖孙三代的小两居里——此时此刻,这两种人生,可有分别?
The Kinks- Waterloo Sunset
Dirty old river, must you keep rolling
Flowing into the night
People so busy, make me feel dizzy
Taxi light shines so bright
But I don't feel afraid
As long as I gaze at
Waterloo sunset
I am in Paradise
Every day I look at the world
From my window
Chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine
Terry meets Julie
香肠在烤箱里咝咝作响,正在极高温的作用下转化为最平常又很不凡的美味。
平底锅里,热油之上,意外地获得了一个双黄蛋,仿佛应和着歌词中的意味。看着半透明的蛋青瞬间变得白花花,边缘上又转为焦黄,便知大功已成了。
培根、西红柿与蘑菇不甘寂寞,也跳入油锅,拼命释放着身体里的水分,同时也释放出只属于自己的最特殊的香气,在温度与音符的催化下,化身为早午餐的绝对主角。
端着一大盘散发着摇滚香气的食物,在阳台上坐定,音乐又循环回了Sunny Afternoon。我分不清空气中节奏布鲁斯、乡村音乐与廷潘胡同的元素,慢慢地就着阳光,一口一口地吃下跳跃着的音符,只想让时光一直停留在这一刻。
