But all this was set to Dolly Parton singing a reimagined version of her famous "9 to 5," originally written for the hit 1980 comedy of the same name.
但這一切的設定都是由于多莉·帕頓演唱了她著名的《朝九晚五》的翻版,這首歌最初是為1980年的同名喜劇而寫的。
In that movie, Parton, Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin play office workers who semiaccidentally kidnap their sexist boss and, in his absence, transform their office, offering flexible hours, on-site child care and equal pay for men and women.
在那部電影中,帕頓、簡·方達和莉莉·湯普琳扮演的上班族半意外地綁架了她們的性別歧視老板,在老板不在的情況下,改造了她們的辦公室,提供靈活的工作時間、現場托兒和男女同工同酬。
The movie, in turn, was inspired by real women: a group of Boston secretaries who banded together in 1973 to fight against degrading and unfair working conditions.
這部電影的靈感來源于真實的女性:一群波士頓的秘書在1973年聯合起來反對有辱人格和不公平的工作條件。
They are the ones who named their cause after the eight daily hours of their lives they wanted to make better.
她們是以自己每天八小時的生活來命名其事業的人,她們想讓生活變得更好。
The updated song moves work into the remaining hours: It's called "5 to 9," and it is, according to Squarespace, "a modern rallying cry for all the dreamers working to turn an after-hours passion or project into a career."
這首更新后的歌曲將工作轉移到了剩余的時間:它被稱為《晚五朝九》,根據Squarespace的說法,這是“一個現代的號召,所有的夢想者都在努力把下班后的激情或項目轉化為事業。”
The two songs are bizarro images of each other: both feisty and plucky, the same tune with very different messages.
這兩首歌都是對方的奇異形象:既活潑又勇敢,同一個曲調傳達著截然不同的信息。
In the original lyrics: "They let you dream just to watch them shatter," and "It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it. And you spend your life putting money in his wallet."
原歌詞是這樣寫的:“他們讓你夢想,然后看著它們破碎,”和“這是一個有錢人的游戲,不管他們怎么稱呼它,你一輩子都把錢放在他的錢包里。”
Now Parton offers that you could "Change your life, do something that gives it meaning. With a website that is worthy of your dreaming."
現在,帕頓提出,你可以“改變你的生活,做一些讓它有意義的事情,用一個值得實現你夢想的網站。”
By the end, she's belting: "5 to 9, you keep working, working, working, working."
最后,她唱道:“晚五朝九,你繼續工作,工作,工作,工作。”
Where once was righteous outrage at a broken system, there is now self-help. And grinding.
人們曾經對一個崩潰的體系表達正當的憤怒,現在有了自救的方法,而且很艱難。
