Lyrics and translation Cat Stevens - Bad Penny (Live)

Bad Penny (Live)

Oh, don't say those same idle lies

Oh, ne dis pas ces mêmes mensonges oisifs

I've heard them before

Je les ai déjà entendus

Oh oh, this fool who, who left half his heart on an early train

Oh oh, ce fou qui, qui a laissé la moitié de son cœur dans un train matinal

(Aaa aaa aaa ooh)

Won't buy no more

N'achètera plus

Oh no

Oh non

Don't use those same weepin' eyes

N'utilise pas ces mêmes yeux qui pleurent

I've wipe them no more

Je les ai essuyés assez

Oh oh, I didn't want to have to be cruel

Oh oh, je ne voulais pas avoir à être cruel

But the truth must be said

Mais la vérité doit être dite

You ain't heard enough

Tu n'as pas assez entendu

Oh, it was not so long ago

Oh, il n'y a pas si longtemps

Since you wandered out of here

Que tu es partie d'ici

To become a silver model of a city on the air

Pour devenir un modèle argenté d'une ville dans les airs

So don't choke me with your lies

Alors ne m'étouffe pas avec tes mensonges

Because this man has open eyes, I can see

Parce que cet homme a les yeux ouverts, je peux voir

I can see

Je peux voir

I can tell

Je peux dire

Oh oh oh oh

Umm umm

I had it enough

J'en ai assez

All those sneaky bars and smart parties

De tous ces bars sournois et ces fêtes chic

Had enough

J'en ai assez

All those sweet friends and lovers

De tous ces doux amis et amants

I've had enough

J'en ai assez

All those lonely rooms and blank faces

De toutes ces chambres solitaires et ces visages vides

I've had enough

J'en ai assez

And I want you, I want you no more

Et je ne te veux plus, je ne te veux plus

I want you, I want you no more

Je ne te veux plus, je ne te veux plus

I, I don't want

Je, je ne veux pas

Oh no, don't say those same idle lies

Oh non, ne dis pas ces mêmes mensonges oisifs

I've heard them before

Je les ai déjà entendus

Oh oh, this fool who, who left half his heart on an early train

Oh oh, ce fou qui, qui a laissé la moitié de son cœur dans un train matinal

Won't buy no more

N'achètera plus
