Lyrics and translation Ben Folds - All You Can Eat (Live Myspace Broadcast, 2/27/07)




All You Can Eat (Live Myspace Broadcast, 2/27/07)
All You Can Eat (Live Myspace Broadcast, 2/27/07)
Son, look at all the people in this restaurant
Mon fils, regarde toutes les personnes dans ce restaurant
What do you think they weigh?
Combien crois-tu qu'elles pèsent ?
And out the window into the parking lot
Et dehors, par la fenêtre, sur le parking
At their SUV′s taking all of this space
Avec leurs SUV qui occupent toute la place
They give no fuck
Ils s'en foutent
They talk as loud as they want
Ils parlent aussi fort qu'ils le veulent
They give no fuck
Ils s'en foutent
Just as long as there's enough for them
Tant qu'il y en a assez pour eux
Gonna get on the microphone down at Wal-Mart
Je vais prendre le micro à Wal-Mart
Talk about some shit that′s been on my mind
Parler de trucs qui me trottent dans la tête
Talk about the state of this great nation of ours
Parler de l'état de notre grande nation
People look to your left, yeah, and look to your right
Les gens regardent à gauche, ouais, et à droite
They give no fuck
Ils s'en foutent
They buy as much as they would want
Ils achètent tout ce qu'ils veulent
They give no fuck
Ils s'en foutent
Just as long as there's enough for them
Tant qu'il y en a assez pour eux
Son, look at the people lining up for plastic
Mon fils, regarde les gens qui font la queue pour le plastique
Wouldn't you like to see ′em in the National Geographic
Tu ne voudrais pas les voir dans le National Geographic ?
Squatting bare assed in the dirt eating rice from a bowl
Accroupis, le cul nu, dans la poussière, en train de manger du riz dans un bol
With a towel on their head and maybe bone in their nose
Avec une serviette sur la tête et peut-être un os dans le nez
See that asshole with a ′Peace' sign on his license plate
Tu vois ce connard avec un panneau « Paix » sur sa plaque d'immatriculation ?
Giving me the finger and running me out of his lane
Il me fait un doigt d'honneur et me fait sortir de sa voie
God made us number one ′cause he loves us the best
Dieu a fait de nous le numéro un parce qu'il nous aime le plus
But he should go bless someone else for a while and give us a rest
Mais il devrait aller bénir quelqu'un d'autre pendant un moment et nous laisser souffler
(They give no)
(Ils s'en foutent)
Yeah, and everyone can see
Ouais, et tout le monde peut le voir
(They give no)
(Ils s'en foutent)
We've eaten all that we can eat
On a mangé tout ce qu'on pouvait manger
