Lyrics and translation Natalie Cole - Straighten Up And Fly Right
A
buzzard
took

Un
vautour
a
emmené
un
singe
faire
un
tour
dans
les
airs
Monkey
thought
that
everything
was
on
the
square
Le
singe
pensait
que
tout
était
carré
The
buzzard
tried
to
throw
the
monkey
off
his
back
Le
vautour
a
essayé
de
jeter
le
singe
de
son
dos
But
the
monkey
grabbed
his
neck
and
said
"Now
listen,
jack"
Mais
le
singe
a
attrapé
son
cou
et
a
dit
"Écoute,
mon
pote"
"Straighten
up
and
fly

"Redresse-toi
et

"Ça
ne

à
rien
de
plonger

l'intérêt
de
se
la
jouer

un
câble."
The
buzzard
told
the
monkey
"You
are
chokin'
me
Le
vautour
a
dit
au
singe
"Tu
m'étouffes
"Release
your
hold,
and
I
will
set
you
free"
"Lâche-moi,
et
je
te
mettrai
en
liberté"
The
monkey
looked
the
buzzard
right
dead
in
the
eye
Le
singe
a
regardé
le
vautour
droit
dans
les
yeux
And
said
"Your
story's
so
touching
but
it
sounds
like
a
lie"
Et
a
dit
"Ton
histoire
est
tellement
touchante,
mais
ça
ressemble
à
un
mensonge"
Straighten
up
and
fly
right
Redresse-toi
et
vole

Straighten
up
and
stay
right
Redresse-toi
et
reste
droit
Straighten
up
and

your
top
Calme-toi,
papa,
ne
pète
pas
un
câble
