Lyrics and translation Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Sittin' and Thinkin'
I
got
loaded
last
night
on
a
bottle
of
gin
Je
me
suis
saoulé
hier
soir
avec
une
bouteille
de
gin
And
I
had
a
fight
with
my
best
girlfriend
Et
j'ai
eu
une
dispute
avec
ma
meilleure
copine
When
I'm
drinkin'
I
am
nobody's
friend
Quand
je
bois,
je
ne
suis
l'ami
de
personne
So
please
baby
wait
for
me
until
they
let
me
out
again
Alors
s'il
te
plaît,
chérie,
attends-moi
jusqu'à
ce
qu'ils
me
laissent
sortir
Know
the
same
thing
has
happened
before
Je
sais
que
la
même
chose
s'est
déjà
produite
And
each
time
it
happens,
I
hate
it
more
& more
Et
à
chaque
fois
que
ça
arrive,
je
déteste
ça
de
plus
en
plus
When
I'm
drinkin'
I
am
nobody's
friend
Quand
je
bois,
je
ne
suis
l'ami
de
personne
So
please
baby
wait
for
me
until
they
let
me
out
again
Alors
s'il
te
plaît,
chérie,
attends-moi
jusqu'à
ce
qu'ils
me
laissent
sortir
I
spent
a
whole
lotta
time
sittin'
& thinkin'
J'ai
passé
beaucoup
de
temps
assis
à
penser
Sittin'
& just
thinkin'
'bout
you
Assis
et
juste
à
penser
à
toi
If
I
didn't
spend
so
much
time
sittin'
& drinkin'
Si
je
ne
passais
pas
autant
de
temps
assis
à
boire
We'd
still
have
the
love
I
thought
we
knew
Nous
aurions
encore
l'amour
que
je
pensais
que
nous
avions
I
won't
promise
the
same
thing
won't
happen
again
Je
ne
promets
pas
que
la
même
chose
ne
se
reproduira
pas
But
I
can
promise,
it'll
be
a
long,
long
time
till
then
Mais
je
peux
te
promettre
que
ça
fera
longtemps
avant
que
ça
n'arrive
'Cause
when
I'm
drinkin'
I
am
nobody's
friend
Parce
que
quand
je
bois,
je
ne
suis
l'ami
de
personne
So
please
baby
wait
for
me
until
they
let
me
out
again
Alors
s'il
te
plaît,
chérie,
attends-moi
jusqu'à
ce
qu'ils
me
laissent
sortir
