Lyrics and translation Keith West - Excerpt From A Teenage Opera - 2009 Remastered Version




Excerpt From A Teenage Opera - 2009 Remastered Version
Extrait d'un Opéra Adolescent - Version Rematrisée 2009
Count the days into years
Compte les jours en années
Yes, eighty-two brings many fears
Oui, quatre-vingt-deux apportent beaucoup de peurs
Yesterday's laughter turns to tears
Le rire d'hier se transforme en larmes
His arms and legs don't feel so strong
Ses bras et ses jambes ne se sentent pas si forts
His heart is weak, there's something wrong
Son cœur est faible, il y a quelque chose qui ne va pas
Opens windows in despair
Il ouvre les fenêtres dans le désespoir
Tries to breathe in some fresh air
Il essaie de respirer de l'air frais
His conscience cries, "Get on your feet
Sa conscience crie: "Lève-toi
Without you, Jack, the town can't eat".
Sans toi, Jack, la ville ne peut pas manger".
Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack, get off your back,
Épicier Jack, Épicier Jack, lève-toi,
Go into town, don't let them down, oh no, no.
Va en ville, ne les déçois pas, oh non, non.
Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack, get off your back,
Épicier Jack, Épicier Jack, lève-toi,
Go into town, don't let them down, oh no, no.
Va en ville, ne les déçois pas, oh non, non.
The people that live in the town,
Les gens qui vivent dans la ville,
Don't understand - he's never been known to miss his round.
Ne comprennent pas - il n'a jamais été connu pour manquer sa tournée.
It's ten o'clock, the housewives yell
Il est dix heures, les femmes au foyer crient
"When Jack turns up, we'll give him hell".
"Quand Jack reviendra, on lui fera l'enfer".
Husbands moan at breakfast tables, no milk, no eggs, no marmalade labels.
Les maris gémissent à table pour le petit-déjeuner, pas de lait, pas d'œufs, pas d'étiquettes de marmelade.
Mothers send their children out, to Jack's house to scream and shout.
Les mères envoient leurs enfants dehors, à la maison de Jack pour crier et hurler.
It's Sunday morning, bright and clear,
C'est dimanche matin, lumineux et clair,
Lovely flowers decorate a marble square.
De belles fleurs décorent une place en marbre.
People cry and mourn away, think about the fateful day,
Les gens pleurent et pleurent, pensent au jour fatidique,
Now they wish they'd given Jack more affection and respect,
Maintenant ils souhaitent qu'ils aient donné à Jack plus d'affection et de respect,
The little children, dressed in black, don't know what's happened to old Jack.
Les petits enfants, vêtus de noir, ne savent pas ce qui est arrivé au vieux Jack.
SECOND
DEUXIÈME
Grocer Jack, Grocer Jack, is it true what Mummy said,
Épicier Jack, Épicier Jack, est-ce vrai ce que Maman a dit,
You won't come back. oh no, no.
Tu ne reviendras pas, oh non, non.
(Rep. and fade)
(Répétition et fondu)
