Lyrics and translation Alain Bashung - Ça Cache Quekchose




Ça Cache Quekchose
Something's Up
Tout est redevenu étrangement calme
Everything has strangely calmed down
Les fakirs traversent dans les clous
The fakirs are walking on nails
Tu m'as dit vas-y beau blond
You told me to go for it, beautiful blonde
Les lave-vaisselle ont plus de marques au cou
The dishwashers no longer have bruises on their necks
Ma bignole lit Rock et Folk
My bottle of wine is reading Rock and Folk magazine
Ses bigoudis vont friser l'incident
Her hair curlers are going to make this incident into a catastrophe
Elle montre plus ses dentelles grises
She's no longer showing off her granny panties
En hurlant vive les sixties
While screaming long live the sixties
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Je l'entends plus crier mon nom
I don't hear her calling my name anymore
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Attends-toi à des distorsions
Expect some distortions
Le lion de la Metro exagère
The Metro lion is exaggerating
Il veut plus bouffer du Mayer
He doesn't want to eat Mayer anymore
Bigophone on s'entend bien
Bigophone, we get along well
Plus de faux-jeton je peux mettre le mien
No more phonies, I can put on my own
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Je l'entends plus crier mon nom
I don't hear her calling my name anymore
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Attends-toi à des distorsions
Expect some distortions
Il fait lourd l'homme-poisson se les caille
It's muggy, the fish-man is getting cold
Poupée ça me dit rien qui vaille
Doll, nothing you say sounds good
Et la grosse du Président
And the President's fat wife
Tu crois qu'elle nous porte des collants
Do you think she wears tights for us?
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Je l'entends plus crier mon nom
I don't hear her calling my name anymore
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Attends-toi à des distorsions
Expect some distortions
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Je l'entends plus crier mon nom
I don't hear her calling my name anymore
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Ça cache quekchose
Something's up
Je l'entends plus crier mon nom
I don't hear her calling my name anymore
