Monkey And The Engineer [Live]
Le singe et l'ingénieur [Live]
Once
upon
a
time
there
was
an
engineer.
Il
était
une
fois,
un
ingénieur.
Drove
a
locomotive
both
far
and
near.
Il
conduisait
une
locomotive,
loin
et
près.
Accompanied
by
a
monkey
that
would
sit
on
a
stool
Accompagné
d'un
singe
qui
s'asseyait
sur
un
tabouret
Watching
everything
the
engineer
would
do
Regardant
tout
ce
que
l'ingénieur
faisait
One
day
the
engineer
wanted
a
bite
to
eat,
Un
jour,
l'ingénieur
a
eu
envie
de
manger,
He
left
the
monkey
sitting
on
the
driver's
seat,
Il
a
laissé
le
singe
assis
sur
le
siège
du
conducteur,
The
monkey
pulled
the
throttle,
the
locomotive
jumped
the
gun
Le
singe
a
tiré
sur
la
manette
des
gaz,
la
locomotive
a
décollé
And
did
80
miles
an
hour
down
the
mainline
run.
Et
a
fait
80
miles
à
l'heure
sur
la
voie
principale.
Big
locomotive
right
on
time,
big
locomotive
coming
down
the
line.
Grande
locomotive
à
l'heure,
grande
locomotive
qui
descend
la
ligne.
Big
locomotive
No.
99,
left
the
engineer
with
a
worried
mind.
Grande
locomotive
N°
99,
a
laissé
l'ingénieur
avec
l'esprit
inquiet.
The
engineer
called
up
the
dispatcher
on
the
phone,
L'ingénieur
a
appelé
le
répartiteur
par
téléphone,
To
tell
him
all
about
his
locomotive
was
gone.
Pour
lui
dire
que
sa
locomotive
avait
disparu.
Dispatcher
got
on
the
wire,
switch
operator
to
the
right,
Le
répartiteur
est
entré
en
contact,
le
responsable
de
l'aiguillage
à
droite,
Cause
the
monkey's
got
the
main
line
sewed
up
tight.
Parce
que
le
singe
a
la
ligne
principale
bien
cousue.
The
switch
operator
got
the
message
on
time,
Le
responsable
de
l'aiguillage
a
reçu
le
message
à
temps,
Said
there's
a
Northbound
livin'
on
the
same
main
line,
Il
a
dit
qu'il
y
a
un
train
en
direction
du
nord
sur
la
même
ligne
principale,
Open
up
the
switch
I'm
gonna
let
him
through
the
hole,
Ouvre
l'aiguillage,
je
vais
le
laisser
passer,
Cause
the
monkey's
got
the
locomotive
under
control.
Parce
que
le
singe
contrôle
la
locomotive.
Big
locomotive
right
on
time,
big

coming
down
the
line.

à
l'heure,
grande
locomotive
qui
descend
la
ligne.
