Lyrics and translation Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Six Strings That Drew Blood - B-Sides and Rarities Version
Guitar
thug
blew
into
town
Le
voyou
de
la
guitare
a
débarqué
en
ville
His
eyes
like
wheels
spinnin'
round
Ses
yeux
comme
des
roues
qui
tournent
Jerkin-off
at
every
sound
Se
branlant
à
chaque
son
Layin'
all
his
crosses
down
Posant
toutes
ses
croix
O
yeah
Oh
oui
He
Got
Six
Strings
Il
a
Six
Cordes
The
Six
Strings
that
drew
blood
Les
Six
Cordes
qui
ont
tiré
le
sang
The
bar
is
full
of
Holy-Joes
Le
bar
est
plein
de
Saints-Josés
A
Holy-hole-a-whole-aria
Un
Saint-trou-un-air-entier
Around
the
neck
of
our
consumptive
rose
Autour
du
cou
de
notre
rose
consomptive
Is
the
root
of
all
his
sorrows
Est
la
racine
de
toutes
ses
peines
O
yeah
Oh
oui
He
got
Six
Strings
Il
a
Six
Cordes
Six
Strings
that
drew
blood
Six
Cordes
qui
ont
tiré
le
sang
A
Holy-hole-a-whole-aria
Un
Saint-trou-un-air-entier
Six
Strings
that
drew
blood
Six
Cordes
qui
ont
tiré
le
sang
In
the
bathroom
under
cover
Dans
la
salle
de
bain
sous
le
couvert
He
turns
on
one
tap
to
discover
Il
allume
un
robinet
pour
découvrir
He's
smashed
his
teeth
out
on
the
other
Qu'il
s'est
cassé
les
dents
sur
l'autre
Well
he
look
in
the
mirror
and
say
Eh
bien,
il
regarde
dans
le
miroir
et
dit
Don't
fuck
me
brother
Ne
me
baise
pas,
mon
frère
Cause
I
got
Six
Strings
Parce
que
j'ai
Six
Cordes
Six
Strings
that
drew
blood
Six
Cordes
qui
ont
tiré
le
sang
Numbin'
the
runt
of
reputation
they
call
rat
fame
Engourdissant
le
nain
de
la
réputation
qu'ils
appellent
la
gloire
de
rat
Top-E
as
a
tourniquet
Top-E
comme
un
garrot
A
low
tune
whistles
across
his
grave
Une
mélodie
basse
siffle
à
travers
sa
tombe
Forever
the
master
and
the
slave
of
his
Six
Strings
Pour
toujours
le
maître
et
l'esclave
de
ses
Six
Cordes
A
Holy-hole-a-whole-aria
Un
Saint-trou-un-air-entier
Six
Strings
that
drew
blood.
Six
Cordes
qui
ont
tiré
le
sang.
