Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - The Clashing of Ideologies (Alternative Version)




The Clashing of Ideologies (Alternative Version)
Le Choc des Idéologies (Version Alternative)
When one voice rules the nation,
Quand une seule voix dirige la nation,
Just because she's top of the pile,
Simplement parce qu'elle est au sommet de la pile,
Doesn't mean her vision is the clearest.
Cela ne signifie pas que sa vision est la plus claire.
And the voices of the people,
Et les voix du peuple,
Are falling on deaf ears,
Tombent dans l'oreille d'un sourd,
Our politicians all become careerists.
Nos politiciens deviennent tous des carriéristes.
They must declare their interests,
Ils doivent déclarer leurs intérêts,
But not their company cars.
Mais pas leurs voitures de société.
Is there more to a seat in parliament,
Y a-t-il plus à un siège au parlement,
Than sitting on your arse?
Que de s'asseoir sur ses fesses?
And the best of all this bad bunch,
Et le meilleur de toute cette mauvaise bande,
Is shouting to be heard,
C'est de crier pour être entendu,
Above the sound of ideology crashing.
Au-dessus du bruit du choc des idéologies.
Whisper up in Whitehall,
Chuchoter à Whitehall,
Must not be spoke aloud,
Ne doit pas être dit à haute voix,
The offender faces jail or resignation.
Le contrevenant risque la prison ou la démission.
And another dose of welfare cuts
Et une autre dose de coupes dans les aides sociales
Is passed without a word,
Est passée sans un mot,
From those who claim to represent
De ceux qui prétendent représenter
The centre of this nation.
Le centre de cette nation.
All these men and women,
Tous ces hommes et ces femmes,
Elected for their high ideals.
Élus pour leurs idéaux élevés.
While we just pay our taxes,
Alors que nous payons simplement nos impôts,
They pay lip service when it feels.
Ils font des promesses vides quand ça leur chante.
And the voices of the millions,
Et les voix des millions,
And the hopes of a whole lot more,
Et les espoirs de beaucoup d'autres,
Are lost above the sound
Sont perdues au-dessus du bruit
Of ideology crashing.
Du choc des idéologies.
Are lost above the sound of ideology,
Sont perdues au-dessus du bruit des idéologies,
Above the sound of ideology,
Au-dessus du bruit des idéologies,
Above the sound of ideology crashing.
Au-dessus du bruit du choc des idéologies.
