Lyrics and translation Frank Zappa/The Mothers - The London Cab Tape
Howard:
Fuckin'
guy
has
flipped
out,
man!
Ought
to
be
locked
up!
Howard:
Ce
type
a
complètement
pété
les
plombs,
mec
! Il
devrait
être
enfermé
!
Jeff:
Who,
me
.. .?
Jeff:
Qui,
moi
.. .?
Howard:
Yeah,
you
too!
Howard:
Ouais,
toi
aussi
!
Jeff:
It
was
anti-semitic
of
me
to
bring
it
up.
Jeff:
C'était
antisémite
de
ma
part
de
le
dire.
Mark:
What,
you
don't
like
Jews,
man?
Mark:
Quoi,
tu
n'aimes
pas
les
Juifs,
mec
?
Jeff:
Let
me
make
it
perfectly
clear,
Volman.
Jeff:
Laisse-moi
te
dire
clairement,
Volman.
I
don't
mind
that
you're
a
Jew.
Stay
out
of
my
way.
Je
n'ai
rien
contre
le
fait
que
tu
sois
Juif.
Reste
à
l'écart
de
mon
chemin.
Take
your
Bar
Mitzvah,
man,
and
shove
it.
Prends
ta
Bar
Mitzvah,
mec,
et
va
te
faire
voir.
Mark:
I
never
had
a
Bar
Mitzvah.
Mark:
Je
n'ai
jamais
eu
de
Bar
Mitzvah.
Jeff:
You
have
a
yarmulke,
man?
Jeff:
Tu
as
une
kippa,
mec
?
Mark:
No,
I
wore
one
once,
though
...
Mark:
Non,
j'en
ai
porté
une
une
fois,
cependant
...
Jeff:
I
knew
it.
Jeff:
Je
le
savais.
Mark:
What's
wrong?
You
don't
like
'em,
man?
Mark:
Qu'est-ce
qui
ne
va
pas
? Tu
n'aimes
pas
ça,
mec
?
Howard:
Probably
don't
like
cowboy
hats,
either.
Howard:
Probablement
qu'il
n'aime
pas
les
chapeaux
de
cow-boy
non
plus.
Jeff:
[...]
Just
keep
it
out
of
my
way,
man,
Jeff:
[...]
Garde
ça
hors
de
mon
chemin,
mec,
I
don't
wanna
see
that
yarmulke
on
stage
ever
...
Je
ne
veux
pas
voir
cette
kippa
sur
scène
jamais
...
Howard:
Uh
... well,
I
don't
know,
man,
that'd
be
sorta
neat.
Howard:
Euh
... eh
bien,
je
ne
sais
pas,
mec,
ça
serait
plutôt
cool.
Not
in
this
group
of
course,
but
tomorrow.?:
Right,
right.
Pas
dans
ce
groupe
bien
sûr,
mais
demain.?:
Exact,
exact.
Jeff:
Howard
Kaylan
World!
Jeff:
Howard
Kaylan
World
!
Mark:
The
Yarmulke.
Mark:
La
Kippa.
FZ:
Ha
ha
ha!
FZ:
Ha
ha
ha
!
Jeff:
Dear
Frank,
thanks
for
paying
a
hundred
twenty
three
dollars
for
my
meal
in
Amsterdam.
Jeff:
Cher
Frank,
merci
d'avoir
payé
cent
vingt-trois
dollars
pour
mon
repas
à
Amsterdam.
Mark:
... which
I
didn't
want
anyway.
Mark:
... que
je
ne
voulais
pas
de
toute
façon.
Howard:
I
hated!
Howard:
Je
détestais
!
Jeff:
I
really
enjoyed
playing
in
your
little
own
ensemble.
Jeff:
J'ai
vraiment
apprécié
jouer
dans
ton
propre
petit
ensemble.
Howard:
For
a
day
or
so.
Howard:
Pendant
un
jour
ou
deux.
Jeff:
Thanks
for
bringing
a
little
slice
of
sunshine
into
my
life.
Jeff:
Merci
d'avoir
apporté
un
petit
rayon
de
soleil
dans
ma
vie.
Howard:
Thanks
for
showing
me
how
sh
... shitty
the
music
business
could
really
be.
Howard:
Merci
de
m'avoir
montré
à
quel
point
la
musique
pouvait
être
pourrie
...
I
thought
I
knew.
Je
pensais
le
savoir.
Jeff:
Thanks
for
making
me
the
worst
bass
player
in
the
world.
Jeff:
Merci
de
m'avoir
fait
le
pire
bassiste
du
monde.
After
six
months
with
the
Mothers
I
figured
I've
lost
everything
I
ever
had.
Après
six
mois
avec
les
Mothers,
j'ai
l'impression
d'avoir
tout
perdu.
