Lyrics and translation Pet Shop Boys - I Didn't Get Where I Am Today (2012 Remastered Version)




I Didn't Get Where I Am Today (2012 Remastered Version)
Je ne suis pas arrivé là où je suis aujourd'hui (Version remasterisée 2012)
Why did I listen to that music?
Pourquoi ai-je écouté cette musique ?
It's made me feel so sad
Elle me rend tellement triste
and brought it home to me once more
et me le rappelle une fois de plus
I want what I cannot have
Je veux ce que je ne peux pas avoir
When you can't get what you want
Quand tu ne peux pas obtenir ce que tu veux
you still have all the rest
tu as quand même tout le reste
but isn't it sad to settle for second-best?
mais n’est-ce pas triste de se contenter du second choix ?
I've been waiting at home
J’attends à la maison
for someone to phone
qu’on me téléphone
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
without living that old cliche
sans vivre ce vieux cliché
I've been lying in bed
J’étais couché dans mon lit
the sheets over my head
les draps sur la tête
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
without giving up in dismay
sans perdre courage
Told everyone I'm over it
J’ai dit à tout le monde que j’en avais fini
I've quit this cul-de-sac
J’ai quitté cette impasse
But just when I thought
Mais juste quand j’ai pensé
I'd lost it for good
que j’avais perdu tout espoir
that feeling comes right back
ce sentiment revient
When you can't get what you want
Quand tu ne peux pas obtenir ce que tu veux
you wear your bravest face
tu affecte ton visage le plus courageux
but deep inside you're sinking without a trace
mais au fond de toi, tu coules sans laisser de trace
I've been called repressed
On m’a appelé refoulé
a poet, a pest
un poète, un parasite
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
without getting in someone's way
sans me mettre sur le chemin de quelqu’un
I live my life on a stage
Je vis ma vie sur scène
put it down on the page
je l’écris sur papier
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
without writing a resume
sans écrire un CV
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
I've explored situations
J’ai exploré les situations
the themes and variations
les thèmes et les variations
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
without losing it on the way
sans perdre le contrôle en cours de route
On the Street of Shame
Sur la rue de la honte
looking for someone to blame
à la recherche de quelqu’un à blâmer
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
without leaving in disarray
sans partir dans le désordre
I didn't get where I am today
Je ne suis pas arrivé je suis aujourd’hui
