Lyrics and translation The Armed - AN ITERATION

AN ITERATION

I fell for some
Pseudo-sophisticated
Poet laureate-posing
Young white savior
He sang to me
A blue collar emulation
An accent so affected
So midwestern

"Shots in the dark
Kalashnokov
You'll take her eye out"
Too cool to be trite
His cunning remarks
And then he did it again, did it again, did it again
Did it again, did it again, did it again

An iteration
An iteration
An iteration

He said to me
"You've got your own reflection"
It's extra underwhelming
It lets me down

Stroh's from the tap, working class porn
And daddy's money
Too cool to excite
He's up there so bored
And then he did it again, did it again, did it again
Did it again, did it again, did it again

An iteration (Did it again, did it again, did it again)
An iteration (Did it again, did it again, did it again)
An iteration (Did it again, did it again, did it again)

UNE ITÉRATION

Je suis tombée amoureuse d'un
Pseudo-sophistiqué
Poète lauréat qui se la joue
Jeune sauveur blanc
Il me chantait
Une émulation de la classe ouvrière
Un accent tellement affecté
Si du Midwest

"Des coups de feu dans le noir
Kalachnikov
Tu vas lui crever l'œil"
Trop cool pour être banal
Ses remarques rusées
Et puis il l'a refait, refait, refait
Refait, refait, refait

Une itération
Une itération
Une itération

Il m'a dit
"Tu as ta propre réflexion"
C'est extrêmement décevant
Ça me déçoit

Stroh du robinet, porno ouvrier
Et l'argent de papa
Trop cool pour être excitant
Il est tellement ennuyé là-haut
Et puis il l'a refait, refait, refait
Refait, refait, refait

Une itération (Il l'a refait, refait, refait)
Une itération (Il l'a refait, refait, refait)
Une itération (Il l'a refait, refait, refait)
