Lou Reed - Intro / Sweet Jane (Live [1973 Version]) - translation of the lyrics into French




Intro / Sweet Jane (Live [1973 Version])
Intro / Sweet Jane (Live [1973 Version])
Standing on the corner
Debout à l'angle de la rue
Suitcase in my hand
Une valise à la main
Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest
Jack est dans son corset, Jane est dans son gilet
And me, I'm in a rock'n'roll band
Et moi, je suis dans un groupe de rock'n'roll
Ridin'a stutz bearcat, Jim
Je conduis une Stutz Bearcat, Jim
You know, those were different times
Tu sais, c'était une autre époque
Oh, all the poets, they studied rules of verse
Oh, tous les poètes, ils étudiaient les règles de la poésie
And those ladies, they rolled their eyes
Et ces dames, elles roulaient des yeux
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane
Jack, he is a banker
Jack, il est banquier
And Jane, she is a clerk
Et Jane, elle est employée de bureau
And both of them save their monies
Et tous les deux, ils économisent leur argent
When they come home from work
Quand ils rentrent du travail
Ooh, they be sittin' down by the fire
Ooh, ils s'assoient près du feu
Oh, the radio does play
Oh, la radio joue
The classical music, said Jim, the 'march of the wooden soldiers'
La musique classique, dit Jim, "la marche des soldats de bois"
All you protest kids, you can hear Jack say, get ready
Tous ces gamins contestataires, tu peux entendre Jack dire, préparez-vous
Sweet Jane, come on, baby
Sweet Jane, viens, chérie
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane
Some people, they like to go out dancing
Certaines personnes, elles aiment sortir danser
Other peoples, they have to work
D'autres, elles doivent travailler
Just watch me now
Regarde-moi maintenant
And there's some evil mothers
Et il y a des mères terribles
Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt
Eh bien, elles vont te dire que tout n'est que poussière
You know, that women never really faint
Tu sais, que les femmes ne s'évanouissent jamais vraiment
And that villains always blink their eyes
Et que les méchants clignent toujours des yeux
And that, you know, children are the only ones who blush
Et que, tu sais, les enfants sont les seuls à rougir
And that life is just to die
Et que la vie, c'est juste pour mourir
But anyone who ever had a heart
Mais quiconque a jamais eu un cœur
Oh, they wouldn't turn around and break it
Oh, il ne se retournerait pas et ne le briserait pas
And anyone who's ever played a part
Et quiconque a jamais joué un rôle
Oh, they wouldn't turn around and hate it
Oh, il ne se retournerait pas et ne le haïrait pas
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane, sweet Jane...
Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane...
