Lyrics and translation Joni Mitchell - Lesson in Survival (Live at Carnegie Hall, New York, NY, 2/23/1972)
Lesson
in
survival,
spinning
out
on
turns
Leçon
de
survie,
tournoyant
dans
les
virages
That
gets
you
tough
Ça
vous
endurcit
Guru
books
the
Bible,
only
a
reminder
Les
livres
de
gourous,
la
Bible,
seulement
un
rappel
That
you're
just
not
good
enough
Que
vous
n'êtes
tout
simplement
pas
assez
bien
You
need
to
believe
in
something
Il
faut
croire
en
quelque
chose
Once
I
could
in
our
love
Autrefois,
je
croyais
en
notre
amour
Black
road,
double
yellow
line
Route
noire,
double
ligne
jaune
Friends
and
kin,
campers
in
the
kitchen
Amis
et
famille,
campeurs
dans
la
cuisine
That's
fine
sometimes
C'est
bien
parfois
But
I
know
my
needs,
my
sweet
tomboy
Mais
je
connais
mes
besoins,
mon
doux
garçon
manqué
I
need
more
quiet
times
J'ai
besoin
de
plus
de
moments
de
calme
Fire
river
flowing,
you
and
me
Rivière
de
feu
qui
coule,
toi
et
moi
Deep
kisses
and
the
sun
going
down
De
profonds
baisers
et
le
soleil
qui
se
couche
Maybe
it's
paranoia,
maybe
it's
sensitivity
Peut-être
que
c'est
de
la
paranoïa,
peut-être
de
la
sensibilité
Your
friends
protect
you,
scrutinize
me
Tes
amis
te
protègent,
me
scrutent
I
get
so
damn
timid,
not
at
all
Je
deviens
si
timide,
pas
du
tout
The
spirit
that's
inside
of
me
L'esprit
qui
est
en
moi
Oh
baby,
I
can't
seem
to
make
it
with
you
socially
Oh
chéri,
je
n'arrive
pas
à
m'intégrer
socialement
avec
toi
There's
this
reef
around
me
Il
y
a
ce
récif
autour
de
moi
I'm
looking
way
out
at
the
ocean
Je
regarde
au
loin
vers
l'océan
Love
to
see
that
green
water
in
motion
J'adore
voir
cette
eau
verte
en
mouvement
I'm
gonna
get
a
boat
and
we
can
roll
Je
vais
trouver
un
bateau
et
on
pourra
naviguer
If
you
ever
get
the
notion
to
be
needed
by
me
Si
jamais
tu
as
envie
d'être
nécessaire
à
mes
yeux
Fresh
salmon
frying
and
the
tide
rolling
in
Saumon
frais
qui
frit
et
la
marée
qui
monte
I
went
to
see
a
friend
tonight
Je
suis
allée
voir
un
ami
ce
soir
Was
very
late
when
I
walked
in
Il
était
très
tard
quand
je
suis
entrée
My
talking
as
it
rambled
Mes
paroles,
décousues,
Revealed
suspicious
reasoning
Ont
révélé
un
raisonnement
suspect
The
visit
seemed
to
darken
him
La
visite
a
semblé
l'assombrir
I
came
in
his
bright
neon
light
Je
suis
arrivée
sous
sa
lumière
vive
au
néon
And
I
burned
out
right
there
before
him
Et
je
me
suis
éteinte
juste
là,
devant
lui
I
told
him
these
things
I'm
telling
you
now
Je
lui
ai
dit
ces
choses
que
je
te
dis
maintenant
Watched
them
ruffle
up
in
his
brow
Je
les
ai
vues
se
froncer
sur
son
front
When
you
dig
down
deep
Quand
on
creuse
profond
You
lose
good
sleep
On
perd
le
sommeil
And
it
makes
you
heavy
company
Et
ça
rend
la
compagnie
lourde
I
will
always
love
you
Je
t'aimerai
toujours
Handle
like
magnet
and
iron
the
souls
Nos
âmes
s'attirent
comme
l'aimant
et
le
fer
