Serge Gainsbourg - La nostalgie camarade Engelse vertaling songtekst
Je score:
That's nostalgia for you, buddy
What the hell got into you, bringing down the hut of this little black wog(1), then drawing your blade, slicing open the primitive belly fresh from the savanna That's nostalgia for you, buddy (x4) What made you posess this delicate girl, against her will and under her claws. About regrets you answer "negative" and even still you snigger. That's nostalgia for you, buddy (x4) What goes into you, my cane sugar candy, Honking your horn in your face, sinking against the reefs of your memories Reviewing your [moral] debts while sniffing pine resine(2) That's nostalgia for you, buddy (x4) There's so much going on inside your shaved skull It's full of sadness and cannabis You still picture yourself in cammo fatigues, packed with explosives jumping out of your plane. That's nostalgia for you, buddy (x8) ---------------------------------------- (1) "panoupanou" means (phonetically) "not us ! not us !". A strongly derogative term for black Africans based on what they supposedly yell when shot at after being mistaken for apes. (2) Not sure about this one. I assume "colophane" is a substance used to make guitar strings sound better. So this could be an allusion to playing the guitar. Alternatively this could be slang for some drug...
La nostalgie camarade
LA NOSTALGIE CAMARADE Qu'est ce qui t'as pris bordel de casser la cabane, De ce panou panou, puis sortir ton kif, Ouvrir le billet de primitif, Qui débarquait de sa savane La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade Qu'est ce qui t'as fait prendre cette fille diaphane, Contre son gré, et sous ses griffes, Des regrets tu reponds négatif, Mais encore tu ricanes. La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade Qu'est ce qui te prends mon sucre de canne, De te klaxonner la gueule, Sombrer sur les récifs de ta mémoire, Et revoir ton passif en respirant la colophane La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade Il s'en passe des choses sous ton crâne rasé, C'est plein de tristesse et de kifs, Tu te vois encore en tenue léopard, bourré d'explosif, Sauter de ton aéroplane. La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade Camarade, camarade, camarade, camarade. La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade La nostalgie camarade, la nostalgie camarade
