Lyrics and translation The Lovin' Spoonful - Only Pretty, What A Pity - Alternate Version
Eyes
to
look
at
not
to
see
through
Des
yeux
à
regarder,
pas
à
voir
à
travers
She
never
could
see
truth
for
lies
Elle
ne
pouvait
jamais
voir
la
vérité
des
mensonges
With
a
smile
she'd
win
'em
over
Avec
un
sourire,
elle
les
gagnait
tous
Face
her
trick
to
take
a
prize
Son
visage,
son
truc
pour
remporter
un
prix
Tickled
pink
the
mid-aged
dandy
Elle
faisait
rougir
le
dandy
d'âge
moyen
Sold
his
horse
to
buy
her
all
Il
a
vendu
son
cheval
pour
lui
acheter
tout
The
icing
for
her
face
like
candy
Le
glaçage
pour
son
visage
comme
des
bonbons
Hung
up
in
mirrors
wall
to
wall
Accroché
dans
des
miroirs,
du
mur
au
mur
Married
life
was
short
but
funny
La
vie
conjugale
a
été
courte
mais
amusante
With
long
lost
cousins
dropping
by
Avec
des
cousins
perdus
de
vue
qui
passaient
Later
on
her
alimony
Plus
tard,
sa
pension
alimentaire
Paid
for
young
men's
gentle
lies
Payait
les
doux
mensonges
des
jeunes
hommes
By
the
window
hangs
a
mirror
Près
de
la
fenêtre,
un
miroir
pend
Where
she
hides
her
sagging
chin
Où
elle
cache
son
menton
qui
s'affaisse
Now,
sadly
as
she
crouches
nearer
Maintenant,
tristement,
alors
qu'elle
se
penche
plus
près
Never
seeing
past
her
skin
Ne
voyant
jamais
au-delà
de
sa
peau
(Mommy
said
(Maman
disait
When
you
were
younger
Quand
tu
étais
plus
jeune
The
face
you
made
would
stay
that
way
Le
visage
que
tu
faisais
resterait
comme
ça
That's
all
true
and
if
you
doubt
it
Tout
cela
est
vrai
et
si
tu
en
doutes
Reflect
upon
yourself
today)
Réfléchis
à
toi-même
aujourd'hui)
Everyone
except
the
baby
Tout
le
monde
sauf
le
bébé
Answers
for
the
face
they
wear
Répond
pour
le
visage
qu'il
porte
Ask
the
mask
of
your
contentment
Demande
au
masque
de
ton
contentement
Or
the
mask
of
your
despair
Ou
le
masque
de
ton
désespoir
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
Only
pretty,
what
a
pity
Trop
belle,
quel
dommage
