Lyrics and translation Genesis - Sign Your Life Away




Sign Your Life Away
Signe ton existence
Well I heard you sold them America
J'ai entendu dire que tu as vendu l'Amérique
You said it was built to last
Tu as dit qu'elle était bâtie pour durer
Price is right, the time is now
Le prix est juste, le moment est venu
You said it was going fast
Tu as dit qu'elle allait vite
Well I've got my beliefs
J'ai mes propres convictions
And I don't agree with a single word you say
Et je ne suis pas d'accord avec un seul mot que tu dis
A convincing smile, a twist of truth
Un sourire convaincant, une distorsion de la vérité
You seem to get your way
Tu sembles t'en sortir
And they believed you
Et ils t'ont cru
With every word you said
À chaque mot que tu as dit
It always sounded so convincing
Cela semblait toujours si convaincant
As you signed their life away
Alors que tu signais leur existence
So tell me what you're thinking
Alors dis-moi ce que tu penses
When you lie in your bed
Quand tu es couché dans ton lit
The suffering you've caused
La souffrance que tu as causée
Surely it must go around your head
Cela doit certainement te hanter
Well they call you Mr Cover
On t'appelle Monsieur Couverture
A predator at heart
Un prédateur au cœur
A man who's reputation
Un homme dont la réputation
Was dangerous from the start
Était dangereuse dès le départ
You lie and you steal, cheat and you rob
Tu mens et tu voles, tu triches et tu cambrioles
Sold anything you could
Tu as vendu tout ce que tu pouvais
You never had a second thought for people that you hurt
Tu n'as jamais eu une pensée pour les gens que tu as blessés
And they believed you
Et ils t'ont cru
With every word you said
À chaque mot que tu as dit
It always sounded so convincing
Cela semblait toujours si convaincant
As you signed their life away
Alors que tu signais leur existence
So tell me what you're thinking
Alors dis-moi ce que tu penses
When you lie in your bed
Quand tu es couché dans ton lit
The suffering you've caused
La souffrance que tu as causée
Surely it must go around your head
Cela doit certainement te hanter
It's been so many years
Cela fait tellement d'années
Well you've hurt so many people
Tu as fait tellement de mal aux gens
As you've singed their lives away
Alors que tu as signé leur existence
Do you ever spare a moment's thought about the price they have to pay?
Est-ce que tu penses un instant au prix qu'ils doivent payer ?
And they believed you
Et ils t'ont cru
With every word you said
À chaque mot que tu as dit
It always sounded so convincing
Cela semblait toujours si convaincant
As you signed their life away
Alors que tu signais leur existence
So tell me what you're thinking
Alors dis-moi ce que tu penses
When you lie in your bed
Quand tu es couché dans ton lit
The suffering you've caused
La souffrance que tu as causée
Surely it must go around your head...
Cela doit certainement te hanter...
