Lyrics and translation The Residents - My Work is so Behind
Smoke
was
feeling
up
the
house
La
fumée
montait
dans
la
maison
A
burning
yearning
heat
Une
chaleur
brûlante
et
ardente
The
cats
were
watching
through
the
haze
Les
chats
regardaient
à
travers
la
fumée
And
licking
at
their
feet
Et
léchaient
leurs
pattes
They
were
licking
at
their
feet
Ils
léchaient
leurs
pattes
A
caller
came
and
looked
at
me
Un
appelant
est
venu
et
m'a
regardé
And
asked
me
if
I'd
mind
Et
m'a
demandé
si
cela
me
dérangeait
I
said
I
would
not
normally
J'ai
dit
que
je
ne
le
ferais
pas
normalement
My
work
is
so
behind
Mon
travail
est
tellement
en
retard
I'm
just
way
behind
Je
suis
juste
très
en
retard
The
fire
it
sparkled
in
his
smile
Le
feu
a
brillé
dans
son
sourire
And
then
beneath
his
skin
Et
puis
sous
sa
peau
And
so
he
jumped
right
in
right
in
Et
alors
il
a
sauté
dedans,
dedans
And
so
he
jumped
right
in
Et
alors
il
a
sauté
dedans
