Текст и перевод песни Daniel Lavoie - Tension, attention

Tension, attention

Assis tout seul au fond d'un bar d'une ville lointaine
Tu fuis les gens et les regards, mais un chasseur t'a vu
Un caïd, la gueule de star qui veut te mettre à l'aise
Avant qu'il ne soit trop tard, t'es mieux de filer à l'anglaise
Tension attention, y a un plus fou qui te pique ta folie
Tension attention, y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie
Un orateur fait son discours, à ses pieds, la foule se presse
Il manie bien le calembour autant que les promesses
Comme il veut refaire le monde, c'est à toi qu'il s'adresse
Mais malgré tout c'qu'il raconte, t'entends comme un SOS
Tension attention, y a un plus fou qui te pique ta folie
Tension attention, y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie
Le grand patron va parler, les petits patrons se taisent
Il a des plans et des idées, des millions sous sa chaise
Toute sa vie est une affaire et tu en fais partie
Si tu ne veux pas manquer d'air, garde un oeil sur la sortie
Garde un oeil sur la sortie
Tension attention, y a un plus fou qui te pique ta folie
Tension attention, y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie
Tension attention, y a un plus fou qui te pique ta folie
Tension attention, y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie
Y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie
(Y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie)
Y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie
Y a un chauffard qui sniffe ta ligne de vie

Tension, beware

Sitting alone in the back of a bar in a distant city
You flee from people and their stares, but a hunter has seen you
A hooligan, a movie star's face who wants to put you at ease
Before it's too late, you better leave without saying goodbye
Tension, beware, there's a madman who's stealing your madness
Tension, beware, there's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
An orator is giving his speech, at his feet, the crowd gathers
He handles wordplay as well as promises
As he wants to remake the world, it's you he's talking to
But despite all he says, you hear a kind of SOS
Tension, beware, there's a madman who's stealing your madness
Tension, beware, there's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
The big boss is going to speak, the little bosses are silent
He has plans and ideas, millions under his chair
His whole life is a business and you're part of it
If you don't want to suffocate, keep an eye on the exit
Keep an eye on the exit
Tension, beware, there's a madman who's stealing your madness
Tension, beware, there's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
Tension, beware, there's a madman who's stealing your madness
Tension, beware, there's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
There's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
(There's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood)
There's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
There's a daredevil who's snorting your lifeblood
