Lyrics and translation The Jam - Thick As Thieves (Live At Newcastle City Hall, UK / 1980)




Thick As Thieves (Live At Newcastle City Hall, UK / 1980)
Thick As Thieves (Live At Newcastle City Hall, UK / 1980)
Times were so tough, but not as tough as they are now
Les temps étaient durs, mais pas aussi durs qu'aujourd'hui
We were so close and nothing came between us and the world
On était si proches et rien ne s'interposait entre nous et le monde
No personal situations
Pas de situations personnelles
Thick as thieves us, we′d stick together for all time
On était comme des voleurs, on restait unis pour toujours
And we meant it but it turns out just for a while
Et on le pensait vraiment, mais ça n'a duré qu'un temps
We stole the friendship that bound us together
On a volé l'amitié qui nous unissait
We stole from the schools and their libraries
On a volé aux écoles et à leurs bibliothèques
We stole from the drugs that sent us to sleep
On a volé aux drogues qui nous endormaient
We stole from the drink that made us sick
On a volé à l'alcool qui nous rendait malades
We stole anything that we couldn't keep
On a volé tout ce qu'on ne pouvait pas garder
And it was enough, we didn′t have to spoil anything
Et ça suffisait, on n'avait pas besoin de gâcher quoi que ce soit
And always be as thick as thieves
Et on était toujours aussi proches que des voleurs
Like a perfect stranger, you came into my life
Comme un parfait inconnu, tu es entré dans ma vie
Then like the perfect lone ranger
Puis, comme le parfait cow-boy solitaire
You rode away, rode away, rode away, rode away
Tu t'es enfui, tu t'es enfui, tu t'es enfui, tu t'es enfui
We stole the love from young girls in ivory towers
On a volé l'amour aux jeunes filles dans leurs tours d'ivoire
We stole autumn leaves and summer showers
On a volé les feuilles d'automne et les averses d'été
We stole the silent wind that says you are free
On a volé le vent silencieux qui dit que tu es libre
We stole everything that we could see
On a volé tout ce qu'on pouvait voir
But it wasn't enough - and now we've gone and spoiled everything
Mais ce n'était pas assez - et maintenant on a tout gâché
Now we′re no longer as thick as thieves
Maintenant, on n'est plus aussi proches que des voleurs
You came into my life
Tu es entré dans ma vie
Then like a perfect stranger
Puis, comme un parfait inconnu
You walked away, walked away, walked away, walked away
Tu t'es enfui, tu t'es enfui, tu t'es enfui, tu t'es enfui
Thick as thieves us, we′d stick together for all time
On était comme des voleurs, on restait unis pour toujours
And we meant it but it turns out just for a while
Et on le pensait vraiment, mais ça n'a duré qu'un temps
We stole the friendship that bound us together
On a volé l'amitié qui nous unissait
We stole the burning sun in the open sky
On a volé le soleil brûlant dans le ciel ouvert
We stole the twinkling stars in the black night
On a volé les étoiles scintillantes dans la nuit noire
We stole the green belt fields that made us believe
On a volé les champs de la ceinture verte qui nous ont fait croire
We stole everything that we could see
On a volé tout ce qu'on pouvait voir
But something came along that changed our minds
Mais quelque chose est arrivé qui a changé nos esprits
I don't know what and I don′t know why
Je ne sais pas quoi et je ne sais pas pourquoi
But we seemed to grow up in a flash of time
Mais on a semblé grandir en un éclair de temps
While we watched our ideals helplessly unwind
Alors qu'on regardait nos idéaux se dérouler impuissamment
No, we're no longer as thick as thieves - no
Non, on n'est plus aussi proches que des voleurs - non
We′re not as thick as we used to be, no
On n'est plus aussi proches qu'avant, non
We're no longer as thick as thieves, no
On n'est plus aussi proches que des voleurs, non
We′re not as thick as we used to be
On n'est plus aussi proches qu'avant
No it wasn't enough
Non, ce n'était pas assez
And we've gone and spoiled everything
Et on a tout gâché
Now we′re no longer as thick as thieves
Maintenant, on n'est plus aussi proches que des voleurs
