Lyrics and translation Chumbawamba - Bankrobber




Bankrobber
Le braqueur de banque
Daddy was a bankrobber
Mon père était un braqueur de banque
But he never hurt nobody
Mais il n'a jamais fait de mal à personne
He just loved to live that way
Il aimait juste vivre comme ça
And he loved to steal your money
Et il aimait voler ton argent
Some is rich and some is poor
Certains sont riches et certains sont pauvres
That's the way the world is
C'est comme ça que le monde est
But I don't believe in lying back
Mais je ne crois pas à rester allongé
And sayin' how bad your luck is
Et à dire à quel point ta chance est mauvaise
Daddy was a bankrobber
Mon père était un braqueur de banque
But he never hurt nobody
Mais il n'a jamais fait de mal à personne
He just loved to live that way
Il aimait juste vivre comme ça
And he loved to steal your money
Et il aimait voler ton argent
So we came to jazz it up
Alors on est venu pour le jazzer
We never loved a shovel
On n'a jamais aimé une pelle
Break your back to earn your pay
Se casser le dos pour gagner sa vie
An' don't forget to grovel
Et n'oublie pas de ramper
Daddy was a bankrobber
Mon père était un braqueur de banque
But he never hurt nobody
Mais il n'a jamais fait de mal à personne
He just loved to live that way
Il aimait juste vivre comme ça
And he loved to steal your money
Et il aimait voler ton argent
Imagine if all the boys in jail
Imagine si tous les garçons en prison
Could get out now together
Pouvaient sortir maintenant ensemble
Whadda you think they'd want
Qu'est-ce que tu penses qu'ils voudraient
To say to us while we was being clever
Nous dire alors qu'on était malin
Daddy was a bankrobber
Mon père était un braqueur de banque
But he never hurt nobody
Mais il n'a jamais fait de mal à personne
He just loved to live that way
Il aimait juste vivre comme ça
And he loved to steal your money
Et il aimait voler ton argent
Daddy was a bankrobber
Mon père était un braqueur de banque
But he never hurt nobody
Mais il n'a jamais fait de mal à personne
He just loved to live that way
Il aimait juste vivre comme ça
And he loved to steal your money
Et il aimait voler ton argent

You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won.
