Swinging On A Star - Bing Crosbytranslation in French




Swinging On A Star
Balançoire sur une étoile
Would you like to swing on a star
Aimerais-tu te balancer sur une étoile
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
Rapporter des rayons de lune dans un bocal
And be better off than you are
Et être mieux que tu ne l'es
Or would you rather be a mule?
Ou préférerais-tu être un mulet ?
A mule is an animal with long funny ears
Un mulet est un animal aux longues oreilles amusantes
Kicks up at anything he hears
Qui donne des coups de pied à tout ce qu'il entend
His back is brawny, but his brain is weak
Son dos est musclé, mais son cerveau est faible
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
Il est tout simplement stupide avec une volonté obstinée
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
Et au fait, si tu détestes aller à l'école
You may grow up to be a mule
Tu risques de devenir un mulet
Or would you like to swing on a star
Ou aimerais-tu te balancer sur une étoile
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
Rapporter des rayons de lune dans un bocal
And be better off than you are, ooh-doo
Et être mieux que tu ne l'es, ooh-doo
Or would you rather be a pig?
Ou préférerais-tu être un cochon ?
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
Un cochon est un animal avec de la saleté sur le visage
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
Ses chaussures sont une terrible honte
He has no manners when he eats his food
Il n'a aucune manière lorsqu'il mange
He's fat 'n lazy and extremely rude
Il est gros, paresseux et extrêmement grossier
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
Mais si tu t'en fiches complètement
You may grow up to be a pig
Tu risques de devenir un cochon
Or would you like to swing on a star
Ou aimerais-tu te balancer sur une étoile
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
Rapporter des rayons de lune dans un bocal
And be better off than you are, ooh-doo
Et être mieux que tu ne l'es, ooh-doo
Or would you rather be a fish?
Ou préférerais-tu être un poisson ?
A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook
Un poisson ne fait rien d'autre que nager dans un ruisseau
He can't write his name or read a book
Il ne sait ni écrire son nom ni lire un livre
To fool the people is his only thought
Trompée les gens est sa seule pensée
And though he's slippery, he still gets caught
Et bien qu'il soit glissant, il se fait toujours attraper
But then, if that sort of life is what you wish
Mais alors, si c'est ce que tu veux
You may grow up to be a fish
Tu risques de devenir un poisson
A new kind of jumped-up, slippery fish
Un nouveau genre de poisson glissant et prétentieux
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
Et tous les singes ne sont pas au zoo
Everyday you'll meet quite a few
Chaque jour, tu en rencontreras pas mal
So you see, it's all up to you
Alors tu vois, tout dépend de toi
You can be better than you are
Tu peux être meilleur que tu ne l'es
You could be swingin' on a star
Tu pourrais te balancer sur une étoile
