She Twists The Knife Again - Recorded for Andy Kershaw - 01/07/1985
Elle me poignarde encore - Enregistré pour Andy Kershaw - 01/07/1985
I keep my nose clean, I keep my speech plain
Je garde mon nez propre, je garde mon discours simple
I keep my promises, she twists the knife again
Je tiens mes promesses, elle me poignarde encore
I shut my memory, I close my eyes and then
Je ferme mes souvenirs, je ferme les yeux et puis
She takes another bite, she twists the knife again
Elle prend une autre bouchée, elle me poignarde encore
She never leaves me my dignity
Elle ne me laisse jamais ma dignité
Makes a dunce of me in mixed company
Elle fait de moi un idiot en compagnie mixte
No bygone can be a bygone
Aucun passé ne peut être un passé
She throws the spanner in, she puts the screws on
Elle jette la clé anglaise, elle serre les vis
In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again
Au milieu d'un baiser, elle me poignarde encore
When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again
Quand je me relève de mes genoux, elle me poignarde encore
When I think I′m off the hook she gets me
Quand je pense que je suis sorti d'affaire, elle m'attrape
She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again
Elle me poignarde encore, elle me poignarde encore
I make my moves well, I let her tell me when
Je fais bien mes mouvements, je la laisse me dire quand
I walk a fine line, she twists the knife again
Je marche sur une ligne fine, elle me poignarde encore
Just when the scar heals, just when the grip unbends
Juste au moment où la cicatrice guérit, juste au moment où la prise se relâche
Just when her mind reels, she twists the knife again
Juste au moment où son esprit vacille, elle me poignarde encore
She can give it out, she can't take it
Elle peut le donner, elle ne peut pas le prendre
She smells something bad, she has to rake it
Elle sent quelque chose de mauvais, elle doit le gratter
I bring home my packet, my white-collar money
Je ramène mon paquet, mon argent de col blanc
I′m in a fist fight, she thinks she's Gene Tunney
Je suis dans un combat de poing, elle pense être Gene Tunney
In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again
Au milieu d'un baiser, elle me poignarde encore
When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again
Quand je me relève de mes genoux, elle me poignarde encore
When I think I'm off the hook she gets me
Quand je pense que je suis sorti d'affaire, elle m'attrape
She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again
Elle me poignarde encore, elle me poignarde encore
She never leaves me my dignity
Elle ne me laisse jamais ma dignité
Makes a dunce of me in mixed company
Elle fait de moi un idiot en compagnie mixte
No bygone can be a bygone
Aucun passé ne peut être un passé
She throws the spanner in, she puts the screws on
Elle jette la clé anglaise, elle serre les vis
In the middle of a kiss, she twists the knife again
Au milieu d'un baiser, elle me poignarde encore
When I get up off my knees, she twists the knife again
Quand je me relève de mes genoux, elle me poignarde encore
When I think I′m off the hook she gets me
Quand je pense que je suis sorti d'affaire, elle m'attrape
She twists the knife again, she twists the knife again
Elle me poignarde encore, elle me poignarde encore
She twists the knife again
Elle me poignarde encore
