Lyrics and translation Chumbawamba - Charlie




Charlie
Charlie
All of nature in its place
Toute la nature à sa place
By hand of the designer
Par la main du concepteur
Comes our Charlie spins the world
Arrive notre Charlie qui fait tourner le monde
From here to Asia Minor
D'ici à l'Asie Mineure
In between the Platypus
Entre l'ornithorynque
And perfect Aphrodite
Et la parfaite Aphrodite
Charlie come with opposing thumb
Charlie vient avec un pouce opposé
To question the Almighty
Pour questionner le Tout-Puissant
Over the river and over the sea
Par-dessus la rivière et par-dessus la mer
Through holy storm and thunder
À travers la tempête sainte et le tonnerre
Steer a course for a brave new world
Dirige un cap pour un monde nouveau et courageux
Of common sense and wonder
De bon sens et de merveilles
See the dancing President
Vois le président dansant
The congressman and teacher
Le député et l'enseignant
Jumpin' to the music of
Sautent sur la musique de
The wealthy Midwest preacher
Le riche prédicateur du Midwest
Charlie come with a brand new dance
Charlie vient avec une nouvelle danse
Get on the floor and follow
Monte sur le plancher et suis
Find yourself a partner and
Trouve-toi un partenaire et
We'll swing into tomorrow
On se balancera jusqu'à demain
Over the river and over the sea
Par-dessus la rivière et par-dessus la mer
Through holy storm and thunder
À travers la tempête sainte et le tonnerre
Steer a course for a brave new world
Dirige un cap pour un monde nouveau et courageux
Of common sense and wonder
De bon sens et de merveilles
Armed with truth we're stepping out
Armés de vérité, nous sortons
Come join the worldwide party
Viens rejoindre la fête mondiale
Charge your glass and face the world
Charge ton verre et affronte le monde
We'll drink a toast to Charlie
On trinquera à Charlie
Over the river and over the sea
Par-dessus la rivière et par-dessus la mer
Through holy storm and thunder
À travers la tempête sainte et le tonnerre
Steer a course for a brave new world
Dirige un cap pour un monde nouveau et courageux
Of common sense and wonder.
De bon sens et de merveilles.

Исполнитель Chumbawamba, альбом The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or From Exaggerated Respect. 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.
