歌词解析
And I ain't been invited
但我从未被邀在列
ain't,它原本是美国南部一帮文盲、粗人(但非原住民)说的话,现在趋于普遍,并且已经收入到了各类词典当中。最开始它是am not的缩写,最初写作amn't,后由于发音连读问题(省去前一个辅音m,只发后一个辅音n),以讹传讹地变成了ain't,显然,这是由一个be动词am和一个否定词not组成的,所以原则上只适用于任何am not的缩写情况。
在英国,ain't一般只用工人阶级,比如那些说伦敦方言,通常被认为是不正当的。中产阶级和上流社会,与19世纪的英国,乐意使用在熟悉的演讲和中上层阶级的教育。
很少被发现在正式写作中,它经常被使用在更多的非正式书面文字,例如流行歌曲的歌词
Oh, he's sweeping off the pavement
他清扫着人行道
Sweep off扫去; 吹掉; 大量清除; 把…从…推掉

Sunday Mr. Right will come along and sweep off your feet.
星期日,你的心上人就会使你神魂颠倒.
Niigata exhaust flow of fresh water turtles cross - beam, power sweep off Jiegu Fenyang.
澌流滹水鱼梁跨,电扫汾阳羯鼓奔.
Any man has a chance to sweep any woman off her feet.
任何男人都有机会吸引住任何女人的芳心.
I will knock on his door and hear all about his life
我会敲开他的门去听他一生的喜怒哀乐
