Lyrics and translation The Jam - The Combine (Live - Paris Theatre, London 1978)
And
life
is
very
different,
when
you′re
in
a
crowd
Et
la
vie
est
très
différente
quand
tu
es
dans
la
foule
When
you're
in
a
crowd,
you
see
things
as
they
really
are
Quand
tu
es
dans
la
foule,
tu
vois
les
choses
telles
qu'elles
sont
vraiment
The
smell
the
fear
and
hate,
generated
by
all
around
-
L'odeur,
la
peur
et
la
haine,
générées
par
tous
ceux
qui
t'entourent
-
I
wanna
breakaway,
but
the
ties
are
too
strong
Je
veux
m'échapper,
mais
les
liens
sont
trop
forts
I
wanna
go
on
holiday,
but
the
crowd
says
I
can′t
Je
veux
partir
en
vacances,
mais
la
foule
dit
que
je
ne
peux
pas
See
life
is
very
difficult,
when
you're
in
a
crowd
Tu
vois,
la
vie
est
très
difficile
quand
tu
es
dans
la
foule
Sometimes
in
the
night,
I
wish
I
was
faraway
Parfois,
la
nuit,
je
voudrais
être
loin
But
then
I
realize,
even
escape
will
be
in
vain
Mais
ensuite,
je
réalise
que
même
l'évasion
sera
vaine
I
wanna
close
my
eyes
and
be
like
the
rest
Je
veux
fermer
les
yeux
et
être
comme
les
autres
I
mean,
nobody
wants
to
die,
although
the
crowd
say
they
do
Je
veux
dire,
personne
ne
veut
mourir,
même
si
la
foule
dit
le
contraire
Look,
life
is
very
intricate,
when
you're
in
a
crowd
Écoute,
la
vie
est
très
complexe
quand
tu
es
dans
la
foule
Life
becomes
the
movies
La
vie
devient
le
cinéma
And
everyone
has
a
role
Et
tout
le
monde
a
un
rôle
It′s
easy
being
the
actors
C'est
facile
d'être
l'acteur
When
the
combine′s
the
only
star
-
Quand
la
combine
est
la
seule
star
-
Sunday
