True story,our office holiday party is tonight.We're having our office holiday party tonight. 真事 我们的公司节日派对就在今晚 我们今晚要举行公司节日派对

Just like last year,I'm going to get drunk,make a fool of myself and then go to the office holiday party. 就像去年一样 我要喝个大醉 出尽洋相 然后再去参加公司节日派对

No,no.No,if you saw it,you would be horrified¹.It's like a bass² of belly³ up here. 不了 如果你们真看到会吓尿的 这里像鱼肚子一样

Let's do something fun,ladies and gentlemen.cause I'm a big believer in fun.That's my philosophy. 我们做点好玩的事吧 因为我最相信玩乐了 那是我的人生哲学

You know,back in the day,a long time ago,before your time,before my time,there was a TV game show. 想当初 很久以前 你们还没出生时 我还没出生时 有一档电视竞猜游戏

It was called "name that tune⁴".Ok，I looked it up on youtube.It's really cool. 叫做《辩声识曲》 我在油管上看了 真的很有趣

It's a show where contestants⁵ had to guess the titles of popular songs played by a live band.Fun,right?We have an amazing band. 这档节目中 选手们要猜现场乐队演奏的流行歌曲的曲名 很有趣吧 我们这里有支很棒的乐队

Since it's the holiday season,I thought we could play a holiday version of "Name that tune" with our audience.would that be fun? 现在是节假日 我觉得玩一会儿节日版的《辩声识曲》会很有趣 就跟现场观众玩 有趣吧

I think so,yeah.Unfortunately,unfortunately if we use famous songs,we get charged a lot of money for playing them on TV. 我觉得会有趣的 可惜 如果我们用名曲 我们要因为在电视上播放而付大笔的钱

I don't want to spill a lot of cash,so we figured if we play our own songs that sort of sound like big hit,We save a ton. 我不想花太多钱 所以我们决定演奏类似热曲的自己改编的曲目 这样能大大省钱

So let's play a special holiday edition of something we call "Basic cable name that tune". 所以我们来玩一会儿节日特别版的 "有线乐队辩声识曲"吧
