Lyrics and translation Billy Joel - Big Shot
Well,
you
went
uptown
riding
in
your
limousine
with
your
fine
Park
Avenue
clothes
Tu
as
monté
en
ville
en
limousine,
avec
tes
beaux
vêtements
de
Park
Avenue
You
had
the
Dom
Pérignon
in
your
hand
and
the
spoon
up
your
nose
Tu
avais
du
Dom
Pérignon
dans
la
main
et
la
cuillère
dans
le
nez
Ooh,
and
when
you
wake
up
in
the
morning
with
your
head
on
fire
Oh,
et
quand
tu
te
réveilles
le
matin
avec
la
tête
en
feu
And
your
eyes
too
bloody
to
see
Et
tes
yeux
trop
ensanglantés
pour
voir
Go
on
and
cry
in
your
coffee
but
don't
come
bitchin'
to
me
Vas-y
pleure
dans
ton
café,
mais
ne
viens
pas
me
rabaisser
Because
you
had
to
be
a
big
shot,
didn't
you?
Parce
que
tu
devais
être
le
grand
patron,
n'est-ce
pas
?
You
had
to
open
up
your
mouth
Tu
devais
ouvrir
ta
bouche
You
had
to
be
a
big
shot,
didn't
you?
Tu
devais
être
le
grand
patron,
n'est-ce
pas
?
All
your
friends
were
so
knocked
out
Tous
tes
amis
étaient
si
frappés
You
had
to
have
the
last
word,
last
night
Tu
devais
avoir
le
dernier
mot,
la
nuit
dernière
You
know
what
everything's
about
Tu
sais
de
quoi
il
s'agit
You
had
to
have
a
white-hot
spotlight
Tu
devais
avoir
un
projecteur
blanc
chaud
You
had
to
be
a
big
shot
last
night,
oh-oh
Tu
devais
être
le
grand
patron
hier
soir,
oh-oh
Hey,
they
were
all
impressed
with
your
Halston
dress
Hé,
ils
étaient
tous
impressionnés
par
ta
robe
Halston
And
the
people
that
you
knew
at
Elaine's
Et
les
gens
que
tu
connaissais
chez
Elaine
And
the
story
of
your
latest
success
kept
'em
so
entertained
Et
l'histoire
de
ton
dernier
succès
les
a
tellement
amusés
Oh,
but
now
you
just
don't
remember
all
the
things
you
said
Oh,
mais
maintenant
tu
ne
te
souviens
plus
de
tout
ce
que
tu
as
dit
And
you're
not
sure
that
you
want
to
know
Et
tu
n'es
pas
sûr
de
vouloir
le
savoir
I'll
give
you
one
hint,
honey,
you
sure
did
put
on
a
show
Je
vais
te
donner
un
indice,
chérie,
tu
as
vraiment
fait
un
spectacle
Yes,
yes,
you
had
to
be
a
big
shot,
didn't
you?
Oui,
oui,
tu
devais
être
le
grand
patron,
n'est-ce
pas
?
You
had
to
prove
it
to
the
crowd
Tu
devais
le
prouver
à
la
foule
You
had
to
be
a
big
shot,
didn't
you?
Tu
devais
être
le
grand
patron,
n'est-ce
pas
?
All

You

Tu

mot,
la
nuit
dernière
So
much
fun
to
be
around
Tellement
amusant
d'être
autour
You
had
to
have
the
front
page,
bold
type
Tu
devais
avoir
la
première
page,
en
gros
caractères
You
had
to
be
a
big
shot
last
night,
oh

devais
être

hier
soir,

Oh-oh-whoa-whoa
Oh-oh-ouais-ouais
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-whoa-whoa
Oh-oh-ouais-ouais
That's
no
big
sin
to
stick
your
two
cents
in
Ce
n'est
pas
un
grand
péché
de
donner
ton
avis
If
you
know
when
to
leave
it
alone
Si
tu
sais
quand
laisser
tomber
But
you
went
over
the
line
Mais
tu
as
dépassé
la
ligne
You
couldn't
see
it
was
time
to
go
home
Tu
n'as
pas
vu
qu'il
était
temps
de
rentrer
à
la
maison
No,
no,
no,
no,
no,
no,
you
had
to
be
a
big
shot,
didn't
you?
Non,
non,
non,
non,
non,
non,
tu
devais
être
le
grand
patron,
n'est-ce
pas
?
