Lyrics and translation Ocean Colour Scene - The Word - BBC Session
It's
too
bad
if
you
hear
the
word
C'est
dommage
si
tu
entends
le
mot
And
decide
that
it's
all
too
absurd
Et
décides
que
c'est
trop
absurde
Punch
the
air
and
believe
it
Frappe
l'air
et
crois-le
When
the
crowd
cries
out
its
agreement
Quand
la
foule
crie
son
accord
And
if
I
get
to
heaven
tomorrow
Et
si
j'arrive
au
paradis
demain
I
will
that
it's
time
I
just
borrowed
Je
dirai
que
c'est
le
moment
que
j'ai
emprunté
Then
look
the
guard
in
the
face
Puis
regarde
le
gardien
dans
les
yeux
As
he
locks
the
keys
away
Alors
qu'il
range
les
clés
Please
please
please
S'il
te
plaît
s'il
te
plaît
s'il
te
plaît
Just
before
you
go
Juste
avant
que
tu
ne
partes
Your
glass
is
only
half
empty
Ton
verre
est
à
moitié
vide
But
you're
full
on
so
where
is
the
show
Mais
tu
es
plein,
alors
où
est
le
spectacle
But
you're
full
on
so
where
is
the
show
Mais
tu
es
plein,
alors
où
est
le
spectacle
And
I
counted
all
of
the
jars
Et
j'ai
compté
tous
les
bocaux
And
the
labels
told
their
names
Et
les
étiquettes
ont
dit
leurs
noms
And
I
counted
all
of
the
cars
Et
j'ai
compté
toutes
les
voitures
Down
the
avenues
and
the
lanes
Le
long
des
avenues
et
des
ruelles
And
a
light
will
shine
on
you
Et
une
lumière
brillera
sur
toi
And
deliver
me
the
day
Et
me
livrera
le
jour
And
I'll
dance
between
your
feet
Et
je
danserai
entre
tes
pieds
Down
the
avenues
and
the
trees
Le
long
des
avenues
et
des
arbres
Please
please
please
S'il
te
plaît
s'il
te
plaît
s'il
te
plaît
Just
before
you
go
Juste
avant
que
tu
ne
partes
Your
glass
is

Ton

But
you're

Mais

But
you're
full
on
so
where
is
the
show
Mais
tu
es
plein,
alors
où
est
le
spectacle
I
count
hours:
they're
only
waiting
Je
compte
les
heures
: elles
n'attendent
que
ça
But
in
between
you
find
something
so
real
Mais
entre
les
deux,
tu
trouves
quelque
chose
de
si
réel
You're
elated
Tu
es
ravie
Please
please
please
S'il
te
plaît
s'il
te
plaît
s'il
te
