Lyrics and translation The Jam - Running On The Spot




Running On The Spot
Tourner sur place
I was hoping we′d make real progress -
J'espérais que nous ferions de vrais progrès -
But it seems we have lost the power
Mais il semble que nous avons perdu le pouvoir
Any tiny step of advancement
Tout petit pas en avant
Is like a raindrop falling into the ocean -
C'est comme une goutte de pluie qui tombe dans l'océan -
We're running on the spot - always have - always will?
On tourne sur place - on l'a toujours fait - on le fera toujours ?
We′re just the next generation of the emotionally crippled.
On est juste la prochaine génération d'émotionnellement handicapés.
Though we keep piling up the building blocks
Bien que nous continuions à empiler les blocs de construction
The structure never seems to get any higher
La structure ne semble jamais plus haute
Because we keep kicking out the foundations
Parce que nous continuons à éjecter les fondations
And stand useless while our lives fall down.
Et restons inutiles tandis que nos vies s'effondrent.
I believe in life - and I believe in love
Je crois en la vie - et je crois en l'amour
But the world in which I live in - keeps trying to prove me wrong.
Mais le monde dans lequel je vis - essaie toujours de me prouver que j'ai tort.
Out in the pastures we call society
Dans les pâturages que nous appelons la société
You can't see further than the bottom of your glass
Tu ne vois pas plus loin que le fond de ton verre
Only young but easily shocked
Jeune, mais facilement choqué
You get all violent when the boat gets rocked -
Tu deviens violent quand le bateau tangue -
Just like sheep - little lambs into the slaughter
Comme des moutons - de petits agneaux à l'abattoir
Don't fully grasp what exactly is wrong -
Ne saisis pas complètement ce qui ne va pas -
Truth is you never cared - still -
La vérité est que tu n'as jamais eu le moindre intérêt - toujours -
You get all violent when the boat gets rocked -
Tu deviens violent quand le bateau tangue -
Intelligence should be our first weapon
L'intelligence devrait être notre première arme
And stop reveling in rejection
Et arrête de te délecter du rejet
And follow yourselves, not some ageing drain brain
Et suis-toi même, pas un cerveau usé
Whose quite content to go on feeding you garbage
Qui est bien content de continuer à te nourrir de déchets
We′re running on the spot - always have - always will?
On tourne sur place - on l'a toujours fait - on le fera toujours ?
We′re just the next generation of the emotionally crippled.
On est juste la prochaine génération d'émotionnellement handicapés.
