Lyrics and translation The Beautiful South - I Love You (But You're Boring)

I Love You (But You're Boring)

Birds are singing in the trees
As we rise up in a beautiful morning
But I can′t hear that beautiful sound
'Cause I′m permanently yawning
What about the time of the fancy dress?
When you came dressed as your mum
(You are a girl)
And there I was splendid in my penguin suit
So scared to show my bill
You must've been listening
To your Carousel, your Carousel
That Carousel
And remember the time
When I turned the house into a rocket ship
And you refused to come to Mars, you said it's too far
And you had to be back by six
To watch your Carousel
Carousel, Carousel
Saturn′s much too far
You had to watch Carousel
What′s going on in there?
When we first met, I asked you for your hand
I didn't really mean that hand
I meant join hands, bake phallic cake
(Bake phallic cake)
Carry ′round sticky tape and love those devil dogs
Be an Indian elephant
(Be an Indian elephant)
Bait straight people
But you must have missed my wink
You must have missed my wink
(I love you but you're boring, you know)
You must have missed my wink, my wink
(I really do love you but you′re so particularly boring)
Must have missed my wink
Maybe you were too busy
Listening to Carousel
Carousel, listening to Carousel
Listening Carousel
Watching Carousel
Watching
Watching Carousel
Listening Carousel, living Carousel
Watching Carousel
Listening Carousel, living Carousel
You were watching Carousel
You were listening Carousel
You were living Carousel
You were watching Carousel
You were living Carousel
You were watching Carousel
You were watching Carousel
You were watching Carousel
You were watching Carousel

Je t'aime (mais tu es ennuyeuse)

Les oiseaux chantent dans les arbres
Alors que nous nous levons dans une belle matinée
Mais je n'entends pas ce beau son
Parce que je bâille en permanence
Et à propos de la soirée costumée ?
Quand tu es arrivée habillée comme ta mère
(Tu es une fille)
Et moi, j'étais splendide dans mon costume de pingouin
Tellement effrayé de montrer mon bec
Tu dois avoir écouté
Ton Carousel, ton Carousel
Ce Carousel
Et souviens-toi de ce jour
Quand j'ai transformé la maison en fusée
Et tu as refusé de venir sur Mars, tu as dit que c'était trop loin
Et tu devais rentrer à six heures
Pour regarder ton Carousel
Carousel, Carousel
Saturne est bien trop loin
Tu devais regarder Carousel
Que se passe-t-il en toi ?
Quand nous nous sommes rencontrés, je t'ai demandé ta main
Je ne parlais pas vraiment de cette main
Je voulais dire se tenir la main, faire un gâteau phallique
(Faire un gâteau phallique)
Porter du ruban adhésif et aimer ces chiens du diable
Être un éléphant indien
(Être un éléphant indien)
Harceler les hétéros
Mais tu dois avoir manqué mon clin d'œil
Tu dois avoir manqué mon clin d'œil
(Je t'aime mais tu es ennuyeuse, tu sais)
Tu dois avoir manqué mon clin d'œil, mon clin d'œil
(Je t'aime vraiment mais tu es tellement particulièrement ennuyeuse)
Tu dois avoir manqué mon clin d'œil
Peut-être étais-tu trop occupée
À écouter Carousel
Carousel, à écouter Carousel
Écouter Carousel
Regarder Carousel
Regarder
Regarder Carousel
Écouter Carousel, vivre Carousel
Regarder Carousel
Écouter Carousel, vivre Carousel
Tu regardais Carousel
Tu écoutais Carousel
Tu vivais Carousel
Tu regardais Carousel
Tu vivais Carousel
Tu regardais Carousel
Tu regardais Carousel
Tu regardais Carousel
Tu regardais Carousel
