Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - Goalhanger




Goalhanger
Goalhanger
He's got the bonhomie of a game show host
Il a la bonhomie d'un animateur de jeu télévisé
And his handshake is so limp its like meeting a ghost
Et sa poignée de main est si molle que c'est comme rencontrer un fantôme
His apologies are tired cos he uses them a lot
Ses excuses sont usées parce qu'il les utilise beaucoup
His excuses are so lame if they were horses they'd be shot
Ses excuses sont si lamentables que si c'était des chevaux, ils seraient abattus
He lies through his teeth with impeccable grammar
Il ment à travers ses dents avec une grammaire impeccable
In the game of life he's just a dreadful goalhanger
Dans le jeu de la vie, il est juste un terrible goalhanger
Keeping all his options open till the very last minute
Il garde toutes ses options ouvertes jusqu'à la dernière minute
Checking every situation trying to work out what's in it
Il vérifie chaque situation en essayant de comprendre ce qu'elle contient
Trying to nail him down is like nailing water to a wall
Essayer de le clouer est comme clouer de l'eau à un mur
He's incapable of making a commitment at all
Il est incapable de prendre un engagement du tout
Like trying to knock in a nail with an inflatable hammer
Comme essayer de planter un clou avec un marteau gonflable
In the game of life he's just a dreadful goalhanger
Dans le jeu de la vie, il est juste un terrible goalhanger
Yesterday upon the stair I met a man who's never there
Hier dans l'escalier, j'ai rencontré un homme qui n'est jamais
He won't be there again today
Il ne sera pas aujourd'hui
Well, that's what he told me to say
Eh bien, c'est ce qu'il m'a dit de dire
He's got the natural arrogance of an exclamation mark
Il a l'arrogance naturelle d'un point d'exclamation
And he wishes his bite was a big as his bark
Et il souhaite que sa morsure soit aussi grosse que son aboiement
He's appealing to the referee at every single stage
Il fait appel à l'arbitre à chaque étape
He's a fuzzy little bundle of impotent rage
Il est un petit paquet flou de rage impuissante
And when he ought to have patience, he only has anger
Et quand il devrait avoir de la patience, il n'a que de la colère
In the game of life he's just a dreadful goalhanger
Dans le jeu de la vie, il est juste un terrible goalhanger
His lack of humility defies imagination
Son manque d'humilité défie l'imagination
And he hangs round like a fart in a Russian space station
Et il traîne comme un pet dans une station spatiale russe
He doesn't even notice as he sells you down the river
Il ne remarque même pas quand il te vend à la rivière
Cos he's one of life's takers and he's looking for a giver
Parce qu'il est l'un des preneurs de la vie et il cherche un donneur
He smirks and shrugs his shoulders as he drops another clanger
Il sourit et hausse les épaules en laissant tomber un autre pétard
In the game of life he's just a dreadful goalhanger
Dans le jeu de la vie, il est juste un terrible goalhanger
