Lyrics and translation George Formby - Rolling Around Piccadilly
I′m
such
a
hot-headed
young
scoundrel,
I
might
be
an
under-done
steak
Je
suis
un
jeune
vaurien
si
impulsif,
je
pourrais
être
un
steak
pas
assez
cuit
My
father,
you
know,
was
a
gardener,
Mon
père,
tu
sais,
était
jardinier,
So
I've
turned
out
a
bit
of
a
rake
Alors
je
suis
devenu
un
peu
un
voyou
I
know
I′m
too
restless
and
daring,
Je
sais
que
je
suis
trop
agité
et
audacieux,
But
youth
wants
its
fling,
you're
aware
Mais
la
jeunesse
veut
s'amuser,
tu
sais
I
once
told
that
to
some
girl's
husband
J'ai
dit
ça
une
fois
au
mari
d'une
fille
And
he
flung
me
down
three
flights
of
stairs
Et
il
m'a
jeté
dans
les
escaliers
trois
étages
plus
bas
I′m
so
fast
I′ll
get
into
trouble,
no
doubt
Je
suis
tellement
rapide
que
je
vais
avoir
des
ennuis,
c'est
sûr
I
terrify
London
each
time
I
go
out
Je
terrifie
Londres
chaque
fois
que
je
sors
When
I'm
rolling
around
Piccadilly,
giving
the
girls
wrong
ideas
Quand
je
tourne
autour
de
Piccadilly,
donnant
aux
filles
de
mauvaises
idées
Dashing
along
just
as
bold
as
brass,
Je
fonce
avec
autant
d'audace
que
de
cuivre,
Flashing
me
stick
on
each
lamp
post
I
pass
Je
fais
briller
mon
bâton
sur
chaque
lampadaire
que
je
passe
Winking
me
eye
in
a
manner
that
made
hundreds
of
women
leave
home
Je
fais
un
clin
d'oeil
de
façon
à
faire
partir
des
centaines
de
femmes
de
chez
elles
And
the
News
of
the
World
expects
big
things
of
me
Et
le
News
of
the
World
attend
de
grandes
choses
de
moi
Ee,
I′m
not
safe
to
be
out
alone
Eh
bien,
je
ne
suis
pas
en
sécurité
seul
Now
I'm
thinking
of
joining
a
Maintenant,
je
pense
à
rejoindre
un
Nightclub,
such
wicked
tales
of
them
they
tell
Club
de
nuit,
ils
racontent
des
histoires
tellement
méchantes
sur
eux
I′ll
join
some
night
club
where
the
birds
are
Je
vais
rejoindre
un
club
de
nuit
où
sont
les
oiseaux
And
I
might
join
a
goose-club
as
well
Et
je
pourrais
rejoindre
un
club
d'oies
aussi
I
know
this
gay
life's
telling
on
me,
my
end
will
be
tragic
and
grim
Je
sais
que
cette
vie
gaie
m'affecte,
ma
fin
sera
tragique
et
lugubre
My
dad
turned
me
out
and
won′t
let
Mon
père
m'a
mis
à
la
porte
et
ne
me
laisse
pas
Me
sleep
on
the
same
doorstep
as
him
Dormir
sur
le
même
pas
de
porte
que
lui
I've
spent
twice
the
money
of
other
young
scamps
J'ai
dépensé
deux
fois
plus
d'argent
que
les
autres
jeunes
voyous
With
fourpence
in
cash
and
three
ha'pence
in
stamps
Avec
quatre
pence
en
liquide
et
trois
ha'pence
en
timbres
I
go
rolling
around
Piccadilly,
making
smoke
come
down
me
nose
Je
tourne
autour
de
Piccadilly,
faisant
sortir
de
la
fumée
de
mon
nez
Cheap
cigarettes
never
touch
my
lips,
Les
cigarettes
bon
marché
ne
touchent
jamais
mes
lèvres,
I
only
collect
those
fag
ends
with
gold
tips
Je
ne
ramasse
que
ces
mégots
avec
des
embouts
dorés
When
I′m
out
I
look
such
a
gay
dog,
Quand
je
suis
dehors,
je
fais
un
si
beau
chien,
That
a
butcher
once
threw
me
a
bone
Qu'un
boucher
m'a
lancé
un
os
une
fois
And
I′ve
sent
Scotland
Yard
nearly
out
of
their
minds
Et
j'ai
presque
fait
perdre
la
tête
à
Scotland
Yard
Ee,
I'm
not
safe
to
be
out
alone
Eh
bien,
je
ne
suis
pas
en
sécurité
seul
