Lyrics and translation XTC - The Everyday Story of Smalltown (Remastered)




The Everyday Story of Smalltown (Remastered)
L'histoire quotidienne de Smalltown (Remasterisé)
Smalltown, snoring under blankets
Smalltown, ronflant sous les couvertures
Woken by the clank
Réveillé par le cliquetis
It′s just the milkman's dawn round
Ce n'est que le tour du laitier à l'aube
Smalltown, hiding undercovers
Smalltown, se cachant sous les draps
The lodgers and the lovers
Les locataires et les amants
Are asleep ′round Smalltown
Dorment à Smalltown
Shiney grey black snake of bikes
Serpent gris et noir brillant de vélos
He slithers
Il se glisse
Bearing up the men and boys
Transportant les hommes et les garçons
To work
Au travail
We're standing in poplar lines
Nous sommes alignés sur des peupliers
Making alarm clocks that'll wake our wives up
Fabriquant des réveils qui réveilleront nos femmes
Don′t ask us, we haven′t the time
Ne nous demande pas, nous n'avons pas le temps
We're racing the hooter that′ll signal life's up
Nous courons après le sifflet qui signalera la fin de la vie
Smalltown, crouching in the valley
Smalltown, accroupi dans la vallée
Woken by the Sally Army
Réveillé par l'Armée du Salut
Sunday marchround
Marche du dimanche
Smalltown, coughing in the toilet
Smalltown, toussant dans les toilettes
Who on earth would spoil it
Qui au monde voudrait la gâcher
Would they pull down Smalltown?
Détruiront-ils Smalltown ?
If it′s all the same to you
Si cela ne te dérange pas
Mrs Progress
Madame Progrès
Think I'll drink my Oxo up
Je pense que je vais boire mon Oxo
And get away
Et m'en aller
It′s not that you're repulsive to see
Ce n'est pas que tu sois repoussante à voir
In your brand new catalogue nylon nightie
Dans ta nouvelle nuisette en nylon du catalogue
You're too fast for little old me
Tu es trop rapide pour moi, un vieux bonhomme
Next you′ll be telling me it′s 1990
Ensuite, tu vas me dire qu'on est en 1990
I have lived here for a thousand years or maybe more
J'ai vécu ici pendant mille ans ou peut-être plus
And I've sheltered all the children who have fought the wars
Et j'ai abrité tous les enfants qui ont combattu les guerres
And as payment they make love in me
Et en paiement, ils font l'amour en moi
In squeaky beds
Dans des lits qui grincent
In bicycle sheds
Dans des abris de vélo
Inside of their heads
Dans leur tête
As singles and weds
En tant que célibataires et mariés
As Tories and Reds
En tant que conservateurs et rouges
And that′s how I'm fed
Et c'est comme ça que je suis nourri
And that′s how I'm fed
Et c'est comme ça que je suis nourri
Smalltown, snoring under blankets
Smalltown, ronflant sous les couvertures
Woken by the clank
Réveillé par le cliquetis
It′s just the milkman's dawn round
Ce n'est que le tour du laitier à l'aube
Smalltown, hiding undercovers
Smalltown, se cachant sous les draps
The lodgers and the lovers
Les locataires et les amants
Are asleep 'round Smalltown
Dorment à Smalltown
Smalltown, crouching in the valley
Smalltown, accroupi dans la vallée
Woken by the Sally Army
Réveillé par l'Armée du Salut
Sunday marchround
Marche du dimanche
Smalltown, coughing in the toilet
Smalltown, toussant dans les toilettes
Now who on earth would spoil it
Maintenant, qui au monde voudrait la gâcher
Will you pull down Smalltown
Vas-tu démolir Smalltown
Smalltown
Smalltown
Smalltown
Smalltown
