Billy Bragg - The Saturday Boy (Live San Fransisco 3 June 1985) - translation of the lyrics into German




The Saturday Boy (Live San Fransisco 3 June 1985)
Der Samstagsjunge (Live San Francisco 3. Juni 1985)
I'll never forget the first day I met her
Ich werde nie den ersten Tag vergessen, an dem ich sie traf
That September morning was clear and fresh
Jener Septembermorgen war klar und frisch
The way she spoke and laughed at my jokes
Die Art, wie sie sprach und über meine Witze lachte
And the way she rubbed herself
Und wie sie sich rieb
Against the edge of my desk
An der Kante meines Schreibtisches
She became a magic mystery to me
Sie wurde ein magisches Geheimnis für mich
And we'd sit together in double
Und wir saßen zusammen in der Doppelstunde
History twice a week
Geschichte zweimal die Woche
And some days we'd walk the same way home
Und an manchen Tagen gingen wir denselben Weg nach Hause
And it's surprising how quick
Und es ist überraschend, wie schnell
A little rain can clear the streets
Ein kleiner Regen die Straßen leeren kann
We dreamed of her and compared our dreams
Wir träumten von ihr und verglichen unsere Träume
But that was all that I ever tasted
Aber das war alles, was ich je zu schmecken bekam
She lied to me with her body you see
Sie belog mich mit ihrem Körper, verstehst du
I lied to myself 'bout the chances I'd wasted
Ich belog mich selbst wegen der Chancen, die ich vertan hatte
The times we were close
Die Male, die wir uns nah waren
Were far and few between
Waren selten und rar gesät
In the darkness at the dances in the school canteen
Im Dunkeln bei den Tänzen in der Schulkantine
Did she close her eyes like I did
Schloss sie ihre Augen wie ich
As we held each other tight
Als wir uns fest hielten
And la la la la la la la la means I love you
Und la la la la la la la la bedeutet Ich liebe dich
She danced with me and I still hold that memory
Sie tanzte mit mir und ich halte diese Erinnerung noch immer fest
Soft and sweet
Zart und süß
And I stare up at her window
Und ich starre zu ihrem Fenster hinauf
As I walk down her street
Wenn ich ihre Straße entlanggehe
But I never made the first team,
Aber ich schaffte es nie in die erste Mannschaft,
I just made the first team laugh
Ich brachte nur die erste Mannschaft zum Lachen
And she never came to the phone
Und sie kam nie ans Telefon
She was always in the bath
Sie war immer in der Badewanne
In the end, it took me a dictionary
Am Ende brauchte ich ein Wörterbuch
To find out the meaning of unrequited
Um die Bedeutung von unerwidert herauszufinden
While she was giving herself for free
Während sie sich kostenlos hingab
At a party to which I was never invited
Auf einer Party, zu der ich nie eingeladen war
I never understood my failings then
Ich verstand meine Schwächen damals nie
And I hide my humble hopes now
Und ich verberge meine bescheidenen Hoffnungen jetzt
Thinking back she made us want her
Rückblickend brachte sie uns dazu, sie zu wollen
A girl not old enough to shave her legs
Ein Mädchen, nicht alt genug, um sich die Beine zu rasieren
