Lyrics and translation The Kinks - When I Turn Off the Living Room Light (Live at The Riverside Studios, 1969)




When I Turn Off the Living Room Light (Live at The Riverside Studios, 1969)
Quand je coupe la lumière du salon (Live à The Riverside Studios, 1969)
Who cares if you're Jewish
Qui se soucie si tu es juif
And your breath smells of garlic
Et que ton haleine sent l'ail
And your nose is a shiny red light
Et que ton nez est un feu rouge brillant
To me you are gorgeous
Pour moi, tu es magnifique
And everything's right
Et tout va bien
When I turn off the living room light
Quand je coupe la lumière du salon
Your clothes are old-fashioned
Tes vêtements sont démodés
Your knuckles are bony
Tes phalanges sont osseuses
Your hair looks a terrible sight
Tes cheveux ont l'air horribles
But I don't have to see you
Mais je n'ai pas besoin de te voir
The way that you are
Comme tu es
When I turn off the living room light
Quand je coupe la lumière du salon
When I turn off the living room light
Quand je coupe la lumière du salon
I don't have to see you
Je n'ai pas besoin de te voir
The way that you are
Comme tu es
When I turn off the living room light
Quand je coupe la lumière du salon
Well it's not that you are ugly
Ce n'est pas que tu sois moche
And I'm not being cruel
Et je ne suis pas cruel
It helps me to relax, dear
Ça m'aide à me détendre, ma chère
It helps to keep me cool
Ça aide à me maintenir au frais
Now I am not intending
Maintenant, je n'ai pas l'intention
To make you feel ashamed
De te faire honte
What's wrong in me pretending?
Qu'est-ce qu'il y a de mal à faire semblant ?
'Cause you can't help being plain
Parce que tu ne peux pas t'empêcher d'être simple
Your nose may be bulbous
Ton nez peut être bulbeux
Your face may be spotty
Ton visage peut être tacheté
Your skin may be wrinkled and tight
Ta peau peut être ridée et tendue
But I don't want to see you
Mais je ne veux pas te voir
The way that you are
Comme tu es
So I turn off the living room light
Alors j'éteins la lumière du salon
We don't feel so ugly
On ne se sent pas si moche
We don't feel so draggy
On ne se sent pas si lourd
We don't feel so twisted up tight
On ne se sent pas si tendu
And we don't feel as ugly as we really are
Et on ne se sent pas aussi moche qu'on l'est vraiment
When we turn off the living room light
Quand on éteint la lumière du salon
When we turn off the living room light
Quand on éteint la lumière du salon
We don't feel as ugly as we really are
On ne se sent pas aussi moche qu'on l'est vraiment
When we turn off the living room light
Quand on éteint la lumière du salon
