A bout de souffle(original) |
Quand jai rouvert les yeux |
Tout tait sombre dans la chambre |
Jentendais quelque part comme une sonnerie |
Jai voulu bouger… |
Ae la douleur dans lpaule droite tout coup |
Me coupa le souffle |
Une peur affreuse menvahit |
Et mon corps se couvrit de sueur |
Toute ma mmoire me revint |
Le hold-up, la fuite, les copains |
Qui se font descendre… |
Jsuis bless, mais je fonce et jai lfric |
Je glissai la main sous loreiller |
La mallette pleine de billets |
Etait l, bien sage… Deux cents briques… |
Somme toute a pouvait aller |
Mon esprit se mit cavaler |
Sre tait ma planque chez Suzy |
Et bientt nous deux la belle vie |
Les palaces, le soleil, la mer bleue, toute la vie… |
Une radio sest mise dverser |
Un air de piano tout casser |
Je connaissais ce truc |
Ctait le Blue Rondo la Turk |
Dave Brubeck jouait comme un fou |
Aussi vite que moi mettant les bouts |
Soudain, la sonnerie du tlphone |
Mon cur fit un bond |
Je pris le rcepteur |
All!, cest Suzy, a fait deux fois que jappelle |
— Quest-ce quil y a? |
— Y a un car de flics au coin de la rue |
Je restai sans voix, jtais foutu |
— Il faut que tu files, me dit-elle |
Descends pas, sauve-toi par les toits |
Bon Dieu dbon Dieu, bon Dieu dbon Dieu |
Encore les flics, vite le fric |
Et puis lescalier de service |
Quatre quatre |
Un vasistas tait ouvert sur les toiles |
Et me revoil faisant la malle |
Parmi les antennes de tl Ce pognon, je ne laurai pas vol |
Trente mtres pl |
(translation) |
When I opened my eyes |
Everything was dark in the room |
I heard somewhere like a ringtone |
I wanted to move... |
Ae the pain in the right shoulder all of a sudden |
Take my breath away |
An awful fear invaded |
And my body was covered in sweat |
All my memory came back to me |
The Heist, The Escape, The Buddies |
Who get taken down... |
I'm hurt, but I'm going and I have the money |
I slipped my hand under the pillow |
The briefcase full of banknotes |
Was there, very wise… Two hundred bricks… |
All in all it could go |
My mind raced |
Sre was my hideout at Suzy's |
And soon we two have a good life |
The palaces, the sun, the blue sea, all of life... |
A radio began to spill |
A piano tune break everything |
I knew this stuff |
It was the Blue Rondo the Turk |
Dave Brubeck was playing like crazy |
As fast as me putting the ends up |
Suddenly the phone rings |
My heart jumped |
I took the receiver |
All!, it's Suzy, I called twice |
- What's the matter? |
"There's a cop bus around the corner." |
I was speechless, I was screwed |
"You have to go," she told me. |
Don't go down, escape through the roofs |
God damn God, god damn God |
More cops, quick money |
And then the service staircase |
Four four |
A fanlight was open on the stars |
And find myself packing the trunk again |
Among the antennas of tl This money, I won't steal it |
Thirty meters pl |
