Lyrics and translation Captain Beefheart - Sheriff of Hong Kong (1981) [Live]

Sheriff of Hong Kong (1981) [Live]

Le shérif de Hong Kong (1981) [En direct]

She always shows up when I'm up

Elle arrive toujours quand je suis en haut

But she never shows up when I'm down

Mais elle n'arrive jamais quand je suis en bas

But she's under arrest

Mais elle est sous arrestation

'Cause I might guess

Parce que je pourrais deviner

The Sheriff of Hong Kong

Le shérif de Hong Kong

Then she goes up in a flash

Puis elle monte en flèche

I bite the end of her sash

Je mordis le bout de son sash

Then I'm long gone

Alors je suis parti depuis longtemps

To Hong Kong Kong

Pour Hong Kong Kong

She never makes a taste mistake

Elle ne fait jamais d'erreur de goût

She's the Sheriff of Hong Kong

Elle est le shérif de Hong Kong

Now I'm the Sheriff of Hong Kong

Maintenant, je suis le shérif de Hong Kong

Now she's the Sheriff of Hong Kong

Maintenant, elle est le shérif de Hong Kong

Long gone gone

Parti depuis longtemps

To Hong Kong Kong

Pour Hong Kong Kong

Whoa I'm long gone

Whoa, je suis parti depuis longtemps

To Hong Kong Kong

Pour Hong Kong Kong

Long gone gone

Parti depuis longtemps

To Hong Kong Kong

Pour Hong Kong Kong

Ad hu

And uh zing hu

Et uh zing hu

I don't know who I am

Je ne sais pas qui je suis

Do you?

Le sais-tu?

Ohhh ahhh oooh

There's a string and bat dangle

Il y a une ficelle et une chauve-souris qui pendent

Black and white bat and cat panda

Chauve-souris et chat panda noir et blanc

And uh

Et uh

She's the Sheriff of Hong Kong

Elle est le shérif de Hong Kong

And uh

Et uh

Ad hu

And uh zing hu

Et uh zing hu

I don't know who I am

Je ne sais pas qui je suis

Do youuuu?

Le sais-tuuuu?

Now she's the Sheriff of Hong Kong gone

Maintenant, elle est le shérif de Hong Kong parti

I bite the end of her sash

Je mordis le bout de son sash

And she's off in a flash

Et elle est partie en un éclair

And we're long gone gone

Et nous sommes partis depuis longtemps

To Hong Kong Kong

Pour Hong Kong Kong

There's a string and bat dangle

Il y a une ficelle et une chauve-souris qui pendent

Black and white bat and cat panda

Chauve-souris et chat panda noir et blanc

And uh

Et uh

She's the Sheriff of Hong Kong and uh

Elle est le shérif de Hong Kong et uh
