Lyrics and translation Elvis Costello - Chemistry Class (Live At The Warner Theatre, Washington DC, 1978)
She
throws
back
her
hair
and
she
shows
you
her
mouth
Elle
relève
ses
cheveux
et
te
montre
sa
bouche
The
breath
that
I
waste
trying
to
ruin
your
life
Le
souffle
que
je
gaspille
à
essayer
de
ruiner
ta
vie
Beauty′s
on
a
budget
but
you
take
it
on
the
chin
La
beauté
a
un
budget
mais
tu
l'acceptes
'Cause
you
have
to
do
your
duty
taking
orders
from
the
kingpin
Parce
que
tu
dois
faire
ton
devoir
en
suivant
les
ordres
du
caïd
You′ve
got
a
chemistry
class
I
want
a
piece
of
your
mind
Tu
as
un
cours
de
chimie,
je
veux
un
morceau
de
ton
esprit
You
don't
know
what
you
started
when
you
mixed
it
up
with
mine
Tu
ne
sais
pas
ce
que
tu
as
déclenché
en
le
mélangeant
au
mien
Are
you
ready
for
the
final
solution?
Oh.
Oh.
Es-tu
prêt
pour
la
solution
finale
? Oh.
Oh.
They
chopped
you
up
in
butcher's
school
Ils
t'ont
haché
en
morceaux
à
l'école
de
boucher
Threw
you
out
of
the
academy
of
garbage
T'ont
jeté
de
l'académie
des
ordures
You′ll
be
a
joker
all
your
life
Tu
seras
un
bouffon
toute
ta
vie
A
student
at
the
comedy
college
Un
étudiant
au
collège
de
comédie
People
pleasing
people
pleasing
people
like
you
Faire
plaisir
aux
gens,
faire
plaisir
aux
gens
comme
toi
You′ve
been
around
so
long
but
you
still
don't
know
what
to
do
Tu
es
là
depuis
si
longtemps,
mais
tu
ne
sais
toujours
pas
quoi
faire
You′ve
got
a
chemistry
class
I
want
a
piece
of
your
mind
Tu
as
un
cours
de
chimie,
je
veux
un
morceau
de
ton
esprit
You
don't
know
what
you
started
when
you
mixed
it
up
with
mine
Tu
ne
sais
pas
ce
que
tu
as
déclenché
en
le
mélangeant
au
mien
Are
you
ready
for
the
final
solution?
Oh.
Oh.
Es-tu
prêt
pour
la
solution
finale
? Oh.
Oh.
Sparks
are
flying
from
electrical
pylons
Des
étincelles
jaillissent
des
pylônes
électriques
Snakes
and
ladders
running
up
and
down
her
nylons
Des
serpents
et
des
échelles
courent
sur
ses
nylons
Ready
to
experiment,
you′re
ready
to
be
burned
Prêt
à
expérimenter,
tu
es
prêt
à
être
brûlé
If
it
wasn't
for
some
accidents
then
some
would
never
ever
learn
Si
ce
n'était
pas
pour
quelques
accidents,
certains
n'apprendraient
jamais
You′ve
got
a
chemistry
class
I
want
a
piece
of
your
mind
Tu
as
un
cours
de
chimie,
je
veux
un
morceau
de
