Lyrics and translation Richie Havens - What More Can I Say John
What More Can I Say John
Que puis-je dire de plus, John ?
You
have
anticipated
all
the
players
Tu
as
anticipé
tous
les
joueurs
Your
silent
judgment
growin
Ton
jugement
silencieux
grandit
And
from
time
to
time
you
pace
the
floor
Et
de
temps
en
temps
tu
fais
les
cent
pas
Because
you
are
a-knowing
Parce
que
tu
sais
Yet
you
cannot
stop
your
sowing
Mais
tu
ne
peux
pas
arrêter
tes
semailles
All
the
stars
that
symbolize
where
you're
going
Toutes
les
étoiles
qui
symbolisent
où
tu
vas
And
your
heavy
rains
keep
growing
Et
tes
pluies
diluviennes
ne
cessent
de
croître
Hey,
come
on,
you've
got
something
better
to
do
Hé,
allez,
tu
as
mieux
à
faire
You
have
hidden
your
face
from
the
people
Tu
as
caché
ton
visage
aux
gens
And
to
them
you
keep
on
denying
Et
tu
continues
à
leur
refuser
That
far,
far
away
across
the
sea
Ce
qui
se
passe
loin,
loin,
de
l'autre
côté
de
la
mer
For
no
reason
their
sons
are
dying
Pour
aucune
raison
leurs
fils
meurent
While
it's
Vietnam
you're
buying
Alors
que
c'est
le
Vietnam
que
tu
achètes
Among
all
your
conservatives
a-sighing
Parmi
tous
tes
conservateurs
qui
soupirent
And
all
your
murderous
lying
Et
tous
tes
mensonges
meurtriers
Hey,
it's
me
who's
defying
Hé,
c'est
moi
qui
défie
Hey,
come
on,
you've
got
something
better
to
dog
Hé,
allez,
tu
as
mieux
à
faire
What
good
are
all
those
documents?
A
quoi
servent
tous
ces
documents
?
Those
well-kept
worthless
scrolls
Ces
précieux
rouleaux
sans
valeur
When
the
hand
you
bit
turns
and
slaps
your
face
Quand
la
main
que
tu
as
mordue
se
retourne
et
te
gifle
The
hands
you
tried
to
mold
Les
mains
que
tu
as
essayé
de
modeler
And
they
leave
you
out
in
the
cold
Et
ils
te
laissent
dans
le
froid
With
your
pockets
full
of
gold
Avec
tes
poches
pleines
d'or
Yet
you
cannot
pay
the
toll
Mais
tu
ne
peux
pas
payer
le
prix
Of
the
brave
and
the
bold
who
are
shouting
Des
braves
et
des
audacieux
qui
crient
Hey,
come
on,
you've
got
something
better
to
do
Hé,
allez,
tu
as
mieux
à
faire
