The Smith Street Band : "Don't Fuck with our Dreams"
Living in living
rooms and it's true
That I haven't gone to bed since the last time that I saw you
Cause going to couch or going to floor
Well it doesn't quite provide the eight hours
That my body is screaming for
That I haven't gone to bed since the last time that I saw you
Cause going to couch or going to floor
Well it doesn't quite provide the eight hours
That my body is screaming for
Cause we've been
driving round singing songs about
Driving round singing songs
And I don't wanna have fun with anyone but you
So take the Great Ocean Road at midnight
I'll get in at three and meet me in between
Where I am and where I wanna be
Driving round singing songs
And I don't wanna have fun with anyone but you
So take the Great Ocean Road at midnight
I'll get in at three and meet me in between
Where I am and where I wanna be
Cause every night's a Saturday night and
Every day's a Monday morning
Everything ever happened the past month and
We didn't get a single warning
And everything that we believe about each other has been proven right it seems
And all we have left is what the King said
Don't fuck with our dreams
I set to
wandering like I always say I do
Walked the flat city streets looking for a sign of a past you
And knee deep in alcohol and borrowed souls
I skipped another sonnet to open myself up to the hope and road
And as the dry wheat fields fly by ready to burn
In the overtaking lane I take a second to learn
From the mangled advice I was given last night by the sweaty guys
With the glassy eyes
Walked the flat city streets looking for a sign of a past you
And knee deep in alcohol and borrowed souls
I skipped another sonnet to open myself up to the hope and road
And as the dry wheat fields fly by ready to burn
In the overtaking lane I take a second to learn
From the mangled advice I was given last night by the sweaty guys
With the glassy eyes
And every
night's a Sunday night and
Every day's a Monday morning
Everything ever happened the past month and
We didn't get a single warning
And everything that we believe about each other has been proven right it seems
And all we have left is what the King said
Don't fuck with our dreams
Every day's a Monday morning
Everything ever happened the past month and
We didn't get a single warning
And everything that we believe about each other has been proven right it seems
And all we have left is what the King said
Don't fuck with our dreams
I wanna leave
something permanent on this stretch of road
Something that won't fly away like the dust and the exhaust smoke we breathe in
To strengthen the law
Like when you said
If I'm gonna die, at least I'll die helping someone
That's what you were thinking when you held together your own
I can't take another late night phone call
From some other far from home hospital
I came so close to giving up
Why has my way of coping become a reason to spill blood?
Something that won't fly away like the dust and the exhaust smoke we breathe in
To strengthen the law
Like when you said
If I'm gonna die, at least I'll die helping someone
That's what you were thinking when you held together your own
I can't take another late night phone call
From some other far from home hospital
I came so close to giving up
Why has my way of coping become a reason to spill blood?
But now isn't
the time for backing down
Got our feet so firm on the ground
So call me what you will
I don't care
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
Got our feet so firm on the ground
So call me what you will
I don't care
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
Yeah call me what you will
I don't care
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
And every night's a Sunday night and
Every day's a Monday morning
Everything ever happened the past month and
We didn't get a single warning
And everything that we believe about each other has been proven right it seems
And all we have left is what the King said
Don't fuck with our dreams
Don't fuck with our dreams
Don't fuck with our dreams
Don't fuck with our.... whoooah
I don't care
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
I know what happened I was there
We know what happened we were there
And every night's a Sunday night and
Every day's a Monday morning
Everything ever happened the past month and
We didn't get a single warning
And everything that we believe about each other has been proven right it seems
And all we have left is what the King said
Don't fuck with our dreams
Don't fuck with our dreams
Don't fuck with our dreams
Don't fuck with our.... whoooah
Ne Touchez pas à nos Putains de Rêve
On vit dans des
salons et c'est vrai
Que je suis pas
allé au lit depuis la dernière fois que je t'ai vu
Parce qu'aller
au canapé ou aller sur le sol
Ben ça
m'apporte pas vraiment les 8 heures
Que mon corps
réclame en criant
Parce qu'on a
fait de la route en chantant des chansons
sur le fait de
faire de la route en chantant
Et je ne veux
m'amuser qu'avec toi
Alors prend la
Grand Ocean Road à minuit
J'irai à 3
heures et on se retrouve en chemin
Où je suis et
où je veux aller
Car chaque soirée
est un samedi soir
Et chaque jour
est un lundi matin
Tout ce qui
s'est passé le mois dernier
Et on nous
avait même pas avertis
Et tout ce
qu'on croyait savoir les uns des autres s'est avéré
Tout ce qui
nous reste c'est ce que disait le King
Ne touchez pas
à nos putains de rêves
Je suis parti
en vadrouille comme je le dis toujours
dans les rues
plates de la ville cherchant un signe de l'ancien toi
A genou dans
l'alcool et les âmes d'emprunt
J'ai sauté un
autre sonnet pour m'ouvrir à l'espoir et à la route
Alors que les
champs de blé sec s'envolent prêts à brûler
Dans la voie de
dépassement je prends une seconde pour apprendre
De ce conseil
pourri donné hier soir par les mecs en sueurs
Aux yeux
vitreux
Car chaque soirée
est un samedi soir
Et chaque jour
est un lundi matin
Tout ce qui
s'est passé le mois dernier
Et on nous
avait même pas avertis
Et tout ce
qu'on croyait savoir les uns des autres s'est avéré
Tout ce qui
nous reste c'est ce que disait le King
Ne touchez pas
à nos putains de rêves
Je veux laisser
quelque chose de permanent sur ce bout de route
Quelque chose
qui ne va pas s'envoler comme la poussière et la fumée
d'échappement qu'on respire
Pour renforcer
la loi
Comme quand tu
disais
Si je dois
mourir, au moins je mourrai en aidant quelqu'un
C'est ce que tu
pensais quand tu reprenais tes esprits
Je ne peux pas
prendre un autre appel de nuit
D'un énième
hôpital loin de chez moi
J'étais pas
loin d'abandonner
Pourquoi ma
façon de répondre devient une raison de verser le sang ?
Mais c'est pas
le moment de se laisser abattre
On a bien les
pieds sur terre
Alors traite
moi de ce que tu veux
Je m'en fous
Je sais ce qui
s'est passé, j'y étais
On sait ce qui
s'est passé, on y était
Mais c'est pas
le moment de se laisser abattre
On a bien les
pieds sur terre
Alors traite
moi de ce que tu veux
Je m'en fous
Je sais ce qui
s'est passé, j'y étais
On sait ce qui
s'est passé, on y était
Car chaque soirée
est un samedi soir
Et chaque jour
est un lundi matin
Tout ce qui
s'est passé le mois dernier
Et on nous
avait même pas avertis
Et tout ce
qu'on croyait savoir les uns des autres s'est avéré
Tout ce qui
nous reste c'est ce que disait le King
Ne touchez pas
à nos putains de rêves
Note : encore une chanson difficile à traduire, décidément je devrais choisir des morceaux moins... imagés. Pour certaines phrases, je suis peut être passé à côté d'une expression australienne...
