Lyrics and translation Grateful Dead - Ship Of Fools - Live at Red Rocks - Morrison, CO - 7/8/1978
Went
to
see
the
captain
Je
suis
allé
voir
le
capitaine
Strangest
I
could
find
Le
plus
étrange
que
j'ai
pu
trouver
Laid
my
proposition
down
Je
lui
ai
présenté
ma
proposition
I
laid
it
on
the
line
Je
l'ai
présentée
clairement
I
won′t
slave
for
beggar's
pay
Je
ne
travaillerai
pas
comme
un
esclave
pour
une
misère
Likewise
gold
and
jewels
Je
ne
veux
ni
or
ni
bijoux
But
I
would
slave
to
learn
the
way
Mais
je
travaillerai
comme
un
esclave
pour
apprendre
comment
To
sink
your
ship
of
fools
Faire
couler
ton
bateau
de
fous
Ship
of
fools
Bateau
de
fous
On
a
cruel
sea
Sur
une
mer
cruelle
Ship
of
fools
Bateau
de
fous
Sail
away
from
me
Éloigne-toi
de
moi
It
was
later
than
I
thought
Il
était
plus
tard
que
je
ne
le
pensais
When
I
first
believed
you
Quand
je
t'ai
cru
pour
la
première
fois
Now
I
cannot
share
your
laughter
Maintenant,
je
ne
peux
plus
partager
ton
rire
Ship
of
fools
Bateau
de
fous
Saw
you
first
ship
sink
and
drown
J'ai
vu
ton
premier
bateau
couler
et
se
noyer
From
rockin′
of
the
boat
À
cause
du
tangage
And
all
that
could
not
sink
or
swim
Et
tout
ce
qui
ne
pouvait
ni
couler
ni
nager
Was
just
left
there
to
float
A
simplement
été
laissé
là
à
flotter
I
won't
leave
you
drifting
down
Je
ne
te
laisserai
pas
dériver
But,
whoa,
it
makes
me
wild
Mais,
ça
me
rend
sauvage
With
thirty
years
upon
my
head
Avec
trente
ans
sur
la
tête
To
have
you
call
me
child
Que
tu
m'appelles
enfant
Ship
of
fools
Bateau
de
fous
On
a
cruel
sea
Sur
une
mer
cruelle
Ship
of

Bateau

Sail

rire
Ship
of
fools
Bateau
de
fous
The
bottles
stand
as
empty
Les
bouteilles
sont
aussi
vides
As
they
were
filled
before
Qu'elles
l'étaient
avant
And
time
that
was
in
plenty
Et
le
temps
qui
était
en
abondance
But
from
that
cup
no
more
Mais
plus
de
cette
coupe
Though
I
would
not
caution
all
Bien
que
je
ne
voudrais
pas
avertir
tout
le
monde
I
still
might
warn
a
few
Je
pourrais
tout
de
même
en
avertir
quelques-uns
Don't
lend
your
hand
to
raise
no
flag
Ne
prête
pas
ta
main
pour
hisser
un
drapeau
Atop
no
ship
of
fools
Au
sommet
d'aucun
bateau
de
fous
