Lyrics and translation Elvis Costello & The Attractions - The World and His Wife (live)




The World and His Wife (live)
Le monde et sa femme (en direct)
The family circle gathers 'round from very far and near
Le cercle familial se réunit de près et de loin
To pass around the same remarks they passed away last year
Pour échanger les mêmes remarques qu'ils ont faites l'année dernière
The little girl you dangled on your knee without mishap
La petite fille que tu tenais sur tes genoux sans encombre
Stirs something in your memory and something in your lap
Remue quelque chose dans ta mémoire et quelque chose sur tes genoux
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
The juniper berry has a very deadly kiss
La baie de genièvre a un baiser très mortel
I would say that something here is very much amiss
Je dirais que quelque chose ici est très mal
But it's a living and this is the life
Mais c'est une vie et c'est la vie
For the world and his wife
Pour le monde et sa femme
The world and his wife
Le monde et sa femme
The kissing cousins step outside to cuddle and confess
Les cousins qui s'embrassent sortent pour se blottir et se confesser
She says sweet nothing at all, it's much more of a mess
Elle ne dit rien de doux, c'est plus un gâchis
She says,
Elle dit,
