Smell Of Petroleum - The Poguestranslation in French




Smell Of Petroleum
Odeur de pétrole
The Shaman came a calling
Le chaman est venu appeler
He was howling at the moon
Il hurlait à la lune
He offered me a vision
Il m'a offert une vision
On the end of a silver spoon
Au bout d'une cuillère en argent
He said he′d give me dreams
Il a dit qu'il me donnerait des rêves
That all were in his powers
Que tout était en son pouvoir
If only I would follow him
Si seulement je le suivais
The universe was ours
L'univers était à nous
Walked a thin white line to the coffin club
J'ai marché sur une fine ligne blanche jusqu'au club du cercueil
Downstairs from the devils den
En bas de l'antre du diable
Had a large double Jesus
J'ai bu un grand double Jésus
Chased down with a shot of Zen
Chassé avec un verre de Zen
The last thing I remember
La dernière chose dont je me souviens
Was lying in the tank
C'était d'être allongé dans le réservoir
And when I came around again
Et quand je me suis réveillé
Everything was blank
Tout était vide
Floating high above the world
Flottant haut au-dessus du monde
Out on the astral plane
Sur le plan astral
I'm bouncing like a pinball
Je rebondis comme un flipper
He′s busy being born again
Il est occupé à renaître
I met God on Primrose Hill
J'ai rencontré Dieu sur Primrose Hill
That's where he came to me
C'est qu'il est venu à moi
He stepped out of his saucer
Il est sorti de sa soucoupe
I got down on my knees
Je me suis mis à genoux
From his lips came just one word
Un seul mot est sorti de ses lèvres
He left me all aglow
Il m'a laissé tout enflammé
I sat down and had a smoke
Je me suis assis et j'ai fumé
And watched the flowers grow
Et j'ai regardé les fleurs pousser
The bats are in the belfry
Les chauves-souris sont dans le beffroi
And the bubbles in the bong
Et les bulles dans le bang
The secret of the universe
Le secret de l'univers
Is hidden in this song
Est caché dans cette chanson
The Shaman left a crawling
Le chaman a laissé une trace
As the dawn broke the gloom
Alors que l'aube brisait l'obscurité
Talking in some other tongue
Parlant dans une autre langue
And laughing like a loon
Et riant comme un fou
The early morning sunlight
La lumière du soleil matinal
Splashed colours on the wall
Éclaboussait les murs de couleur
And I don't know if it ever
Et je ne sais pas si cela
Really happened at all
Est vraiment arrivé
The bats are in the belfry
Les chauves-souris sont dans le beffroi
And the bubbles in the bong
Et les bulles dans le bang
The molecules inside my head
Les molécules dans ma tête
Are chiming like a gong
Carillonnent comme un gong
The bats are in the belfry
Les chauves-souris sont dans le beffroi
And the bubbles in the bong
Et les bulles dans le bang
The secret of the universe
Le secret de l'univers
Is hidden in this song
Est caché dans cette chanson
