Lyrics and translation The Damned - Generals (Live at the Mayfair, Newcastle, 14 October 1982)
Big
city
all
crapped
out
revenge
is
not
so
sweet
Grande
ville,
tout
craché,
la
vengeance
n'est
pas
si
douce
Once
proud
once
so
devout
they′re
tired
and
they
are
weak
Jadis
fiers,
jadis
si
dévoués,
ils
sont
fatigués
et
faibles
They
came
from
east
to
west
counting
up
the
cost
Ils
sont
venus
d'est
en
ouest,
comptant
le
coût
Red
star
soon
to
arrive
they
know
that
all
is
lost
L'étoile
rouge
bientôt
arrivée,
ils
savent
que
tout
est
perdu
And
only
the
wounded
remain
Et
seuls
les
blessés
restent
The
generals
have
all
left
the
game
Les
généraux
ont
tous
quitté
le
jeu
With
no
will
to
fight
Sans
volonté
de
se
battre
They'll
fade
with
the
light
Ils
s'estomperont
avec
la
lumière
There′s
nobody
left
they
can
blame
Il
ne
reste
personne
qu'ils
puissent
blâmer
What
once
was
decadence
now's
nothing
but
raized
land
Ce
qui
était
autrefois
de
la
décadence
n'est
plus
que
des
terres
rehaussées
The
end
so
imminent
big
city's
not
so
grand
La
fin
si
imminente,
la
grande
ville
n'est
pas
si
grandiose
They
came
they
saw
they
conquered
people
hid
in
fear
Ils
sont
venus,
ils
ont
vu,
ils
ont
conquis,
les
gens
se
sont
cachés
dans
la
peur
They
looted
raped
and
plundered
angry
russian
bear
Ils
ont
pillé,
violé
et
pillé,
l'ours
russe
en
colère
And
only
the
wounded
remain
Et
seuls
les
blessés
restent
The
generals
have
all
left
the
game
Les
généraux
ont
tous
quitté
le
jeu
With
no
will
to
fight
Sans
volonté
de
se
battre
They′ll
fade
with
the
light
Ils
s'estomperont
avec
la
lumière
There′s
nobody
left
they
can
blame
Il
ne
reste
personne
qu'ils
puissent
blâmer
Reichstag
flies
red
flag
signalling
the
end
Le
Reichstag
arbore
le
drapeau
rouge
signalant
la
fin
Party
now
bad
bad
suicide
the
end
La
fête
est
maintenant
mauvaise,
mauvaise,
suicide,
la
fin
There's
some
who
think
that
golden
years
might
lie
ahead
Il
y
en
a
qui
pensent
que
des
années
dorées
pourraient
attendre
No
leaders
anymore
in
the
bunker
dead
Plus
de
leaders,
tous
morts
dans
le
bunker
And
only
the
wounded
remain
Et
seuls
les
blessés
restent
