Lyrics and translation Billy Bragg - Wishing the Days Away (Alternative Version)




Wishing the Days Away (Alternative Version)
J'attends le jour (Version alternative)
On Monday I wished it was Tuesday night
Lundi, j'ai souhaité que ce soit mardi soir
So I could wish for the weekend to come
Pour pouvoir espérer que le week-end arrive
Tuesday I wished that the night would pass
Mardi, j'ai souhaité que la nuit passe
So I could call you on the phone
Pour pouvoir t'appeler au téléphone
Now a man can spend a lot of time
On peut passer beaucoup de temps
Wondering what was on Jack Ruby's mind
À se demander ce qui passait par la tête de Jack Ruby
Time is all I have without you here
Le temps, c'est tout ce que j'ai sans toi ici
Wednesday when you hung up
Mercredi, quand tu as raccroché
It was as much as I could do
J'ai fait tout ce que j'ai pu
To stop from wishing Thursday
Pour éviter de souhaiter que jeudi
Would pass so quickly too
Passe aussi vite
They're out there making history
Ils sont là-bas, en train de faire l'histoire
In the Lenin Shipyards today
Dans les chantiers navals de Léningrad aujourd'hui
And here I am in the Hammersmith Hotel
Et moi, je suis ici, à l'hôtel Hammersmith
Wishing the days away
J'attends le jour
Wasn't it a shock to find the king was human too
N'était-ce pas un choc de découvrir que le roi était humain aussi
Still I think he understands much more of me than you do
Je pense quand même qu'il me comprend beaucoup plus que toi
It seems a proper shame to steal his clothes but not his crown
Il me semble bien dommage de voler ses vêtements, mais pas sa couronne
Here I am in the Hammersmith hotel singing the government down
Me voilà à l'hôtel Hammersmith, en train de critiquer le gouvernement
Friday I wished there was something more
Vendredi, j'ai souhaité qu'il y ait quelque chose de plus
To be seen in the letters you send
À voir dans les lettres que tu envoies
On Saturday I wished it was Sunday
Samedi, j'ai souhaité que ce soit dimanche
Oh will this torment ever end
Oh, ce tourment prendra-t-il jamais fin
Sometimes I take a notion to put a torch to the tools of my trade
Parfois, j'ai envie de mettre le feu aux outils de mon métier
Here I am in the Hammersmith Hotel
Me voilà à l'hôtel Hammersmith
Wishing the days away
J'attends le jour
Here I am in the Hammersmith Hotel
Me voilà à l'hôtel Hammersmith
Wishing the days away
J'attends le jour
