Paroles et traduction Chumbawamba - After Shelley




After Shelley
Après Shelley
Anybody can press a button and blow up a ship
N'importe qui peut appuyer sur un bouton et faire sauter un navire
Anybody can use an atom bomb
N'importe qui peut utiliser une bombe atomique
Anybody can pick up a big whip and whip you
N'importe qui peut prendre un grand fouet et te fouetter
Anybody can stick a knife into you
N'importe qui peut te planter un couteau
Anybody can pull a trigger
N'importe qui peut tirer sur la gâchette
But where's the man with the character, as can take a punch on the nose and keep his temper, keep control of himself?
Mais où est l'homme avec le caractère, qui peut prendre un coup de poing sur le nez et garder son sang-froid, garder le contrôle de lui-même ?
The seed you sow, another reaps
La graine que tu sèmes, un autre la récolte
The wealth you find, another keeps
La richesse que tu trouves, un autre la garde
The clothes you weave, another wears
Les vêtements que tu tisses, un autre les porte
The arms you forge, another bears
Les armes que tu forges, un autre les porte
The songs you write, another sings
Les chansons que tu écris, un autre les chante
The heart you lose, another wins
Le cœur que tu perds, un autre le gagne
The food you bake, another eats
La nourriture que tu fais cuire, un autre la mange
Poison-laced and oh so sweet
Empoisonnée et oh si douce
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Check your pulse
Vérifie ton pouls
Art or death
Art ou mort
True or false
Vrai ou faux
Can't stay young
On ne peut pas rester jeune
Can't grow old
On ne peut pas vieillir
Overpriced
Surévalué
Undersold
Sous-évalué

Исполнитель Chumbawamba, альбом The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or From Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won.
