Lyrics and translation Chumbawamba - Right Around The World




Right Around The World
Autour du monde
Bert told Brecht
Bert a dit à Brecht
Brecht told Bert
Brecht a dit à Bert
Words like birds flew right around the world
Les mots comme des oiseaux ont fait le tour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Words flew right around the world
Les mots ont fait le tour du monde
Beware! Don't look away!
Attention ! Ne détourne pas les yeux !
Hear what the poet has to say
Écoute ce que le poète a à dire
Songs and rhymes for the worst of times
Des chansons et des rimes pour les pires moments
Paper feeds the fire In the coldest winter
Le papier nourrit le feu dans l’hiver le plus froid
Bert told Brecht
Bert a dit à Brecht
Brecht told Bert
Brecht a dit à Bert
Words like birds flew right around the world
Les mots comme des oiseaux ont fait le tour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Words flew right around the world
Les mots ont fait le tour du monde
Wake up! Look around!
Réveille-toi ! Regarde autour de toi !
The painter learnt to juggle like a clown
Le peintre a appris à jongler comme un clown
Poet he shouts till they chase him out
Le poète crie jusqu’à ce qu’ils le chassent
Marching into exile with an old typewriter
Marchant en exil avec une vieille machine à écrire
Bert told Brecht
Bert a dit à Brecht
Brecht told Bert
Brecht a dit à Bert
Words like birds flew right around the world
Les mots comme des oiseaux ont fait le tour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Words flew right around the world
Les mots ont fait le tour du monde
Take care! Open up your eyes!
Prends soin de toi ! Ouvre les yeux !
Words can take you by surprise
Les mots peuvent te prendre par surprise
Poet he writes fights the best of fights
Le poète écrit, mène les meilleurs combats
Taking on the painter with a pen and paper...
S’attaquant au peintre avec un stylo et du papier…
Bert told Brecht
Bert a dit à Brecht
Brecht told Bert
Brecht a dit à Bert
Words like birds flew right around the world
Les mots comme des oiseaux ont fait le tour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Words flew right around the world
Les mots ont fait le tour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Right around the world
Autour du monde
Words flew right around the world
Les mots ont fait le tour du monde

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.
