Paroles et traduction Serge Gainsbourg - You're Under Arrest

You're Under Arrest

Un soir que dans le Bronx
J′étais on ne peut plus anxieux
De retrouver Samantha
Entre Thelonious Monk
Quelques punks aussi Bronski beat
Giclant de mon Aiwa

You're under arrest
′Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
′Cause you′re the best
Hah, a slippity slam, a-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

J'ai dit et je redis donc
Sur le trop tard du Bronx
Je recherchais Samantha
S′pointent deux gorilles du Bronx
Il est évident donc
Qu'c′était mal barré pour moi

You're under arrest
′Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
′Cause you′re the best
G-g-gain, g-g-gain, g-g-gain, g-Gainsbourg

C'était deux police blacks
Qui pratiquaient le slang
Ainsi que le Colt Cobra
Ils m′plaquent au mur du Bronx
Et je défie quiconque dans ce cas
De ne pas avoir les foies

You're under arrest
′Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You′re under arrest
'Cause you're the best
Slippity slam, boom-ba-ba-bam, Gainsbourg

Serge

You′re under arrest
′Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You′re under arrest
They say you're the best, ha
Ba-boom-bam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

L′un des ces yankees monkeys
Me dit "give us your money"
Qu'est-ce que t′aurais fait toi
Ils m'relâchent ainsi donc
J'enfonce dans le Bronx
Retrouver Samantha

You′re under arrest
′Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You′re under arrest
They say you're the best, ha
Ba-boom-bam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

You′re under arrest
'Cause you′re the best
Slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
'Cause you′re the best
Slippity-slam, boom-ba-bang-bang, Gainsbourg

A world like this
A world like that

You're Under Arrest

One night in the Bronx
I was as anxious as could be
To find Samantha
Between Thelonious Monk
Some punks also Bronski Beat
Spouting from my Aiwa

You're under arrest
Because you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
Because you're the best
Hah, a slippity slam, a-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

So I said and I repeat
On the too late Bronx
I was looking for Samantha
Show up two gorillas from the Bronx
It is evident therefore
That it was wrong for me

You're under arrest
Because you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
Because you're the best
G-g-gain, g-g-gain, g-g-gain, g-Gainsbourg

They were two police blacks
Who practiced slang
As well as the Colt Cobra
They pin me against the wall of the Bronx
And I defy anyone in this case
Not to have guts

You're under arrest
Because you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
Because you're the best
Slippity slam, boom-ba-ba-bam, Gainsbourg

Serge

You're under arrest
Because you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
They say you're the best, ha
Ba-boom-bam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

One of those Yankee monkeys
Says to me "give us your money"
What would you have done?
They release me like that
I sink into the Bronx
Find Samantha

You're under arrest
Because you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
They say you're the best, ha
Ba-boom-bam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

You're under arrest
Because you're the best
Slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
Because you're the best
Slippity-slam, boom-ba-bang-bang, Gainsbourg

A world like this
