Lyrics and translation Louis Prima - Enjoy Yourself

Enjoy Yourself

Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think
Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink
The years go by as quickly as a wink
Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself
It's later than you think

Keely: Look honey at that beautiful
Funeral. I've never seen so many flowers
Louis: Yeah, he was a nice man too, but never had any fun.
Didn't have time.
Just worked and made money. He didn't even have time to enjoy himself
Keely: Poor man

You're gonna take that two week trip
No matter, come what may
But every year you put it off
You just can't get away
Next year, for sure, you'll hit the road
You'll really get around
But how far can you travel
When you're six feet underground?

Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think
Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink
The years go by as quickly as a wink
Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself
It's later than you think

You never go to nightclubs, and
You just don't care to dance
You don't have time for silly things
Like moonlight and romance
You only think of dollar bills
Tied neatly in a stack
But when you kiss a dollar bill
It doesn't kiss you back

Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think
Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink
The years go by as quickly as a wink
Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself
It's later than you think

Now you love lasagna very much
You like to eat and eat
You won't eat cucuzza
You're afraid it'll break your teeth
You always think you may bite off
More than you can chew
Don't be afraid you won't have teeth
When you reach ninety-two

Profite de la vie

Profite de la vie, il est plus tard que tu ne le penses
Profite de la vie, tant que tu es encore en forme
Les années passent aussi vite qu'un clin d'œil
Profite de la vie, profite de la vie
Il est plus tard que tu ne le penses

Keely : Regarde mon chéri, ce magnifique
Funérailles. Je n'ai jamais vu autant de fleurs
Louis : Ouais, c'était un homme bien aussi, mais il ne s'est jamais amusé.
Il n'avait pas le temps.
Il ne faisait que travailler et gagner de l'argent. Il n'avait même pas le temps de profiter de la vie
Keely : Pauvre homme

Tu vas faire ce voyage de deux semaines
Peu importe, quoi qu'il arrive
Mais chaque année, tu le reportes
Tu ne peux tout simplement pas t'échapper
L'année prochaine, c'est sûr, tu prendras la route
Tu vas vraiment voyager
Mais jusqu'où peux-tu voyager
Quand tu es six pieds sous terre ?

Profite de la vie, il est plus tard que tu ne le penses
Profite de la vie, tant que tu es encore en forme
Les années passent aussi vite qu'un clin d'œil
Profite de la vie, profite de la vie
Il est plus tard que tu ne le penses

Tu ne vas jamais dans les boîtes de nuit, et
Tu n'aimes pas danser
Tu n'as pas le temps pour des choses stupides
Comme le clair de lune et la romance
Tu ne penses qu'à des billets de banque
Liés proprement en une pile
Mais quand tu embrasses un billet de banque
Il ne t'embrasse pas en retour

Profite de la vie, il est plus tard que tu ne le penses
Profite de la vie, tant que tu es encore en forme
Les années passent aussi vite qu'un clin d'œil
Profite de la vie, profite de la vie
Il est plus tard que tu ne le penses

Maintenant, tu aimes beaucoup les lasagnes
Tu aimes manger et manger
Tu ne mangeras pas de courgettes
Tu as peur que ça te casse les dents
Tu penses toujours que tu peux mordre
Plus que ce que tu peux mâcher
N'aie pas peur de ne pas avoir de dents
Quand tu atteindras quatre-vingt-douze ans
