Tango (original)Tango (translation)
Je roulais des mécaniques I was riding mechanics
Pendant qu’elle roulait des hanches As she rolled her hips
Au fond d’un beuglant magique At the bottom of a magic bellow
Elle imposait le silence She imposed silence
A des clients rouge brique To brick red customers
Buvant du champagne rance Drinking rancid champagne
Qui l’auraient payé cent briques Who would have paid a hundred bricks
Mais elle venait pour la danse But she came for the dance
Elle dansait sa vérité She was dancing her truth
Mais son rêve était si fort But her dream was so strong
Qu’en plein milieu du troquet That in the middle of the troquet
On sentait passer la mort We felt death pass
C'était p’t'être à Singapour It was maybe in Singapore
A Rio ou à New-Port In Rio or New Port
C'était la nuit pas le jour It was night not day
La lune brillait sur le port The moon shone over the harbor
Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Dansait She was dancing/She was dancing/She was dancing/She was dancing/She was dancing/Dancing
J'écrivais à l’encre rouge I was writing in red ink
Quelques mots-clés au fond d’un bouge A few keywords at the bottom of a den
Et j’ai trouvé dans un miroir And I found in a mirror
Le feu sacré du désespoir The Sacred Fire of Despair
Parfois Satan me joue des tours Sometimes Satan plays tricks on me
Cherchant la mort, trouvant l’amour Seeking death, finding love
Sous l'écran noir des cheveux lourds Under the black screen of heavy hair
Un oeil rasant sur du velours A grazing eye on velvet
Ses ongles durs dans la lumière Her hard nails in the light
Traçaient des signes et des mystères Traced signs and mysteries
Et ses mains souples de panthère And her supple panther hands
Laissaient des mots pendus en l’air Left words hanging in the air
Qui peut entendre le silence Who can hear the silence
Craquant de signes de la danse Cracking signs of the dance
Connaît à coup sûr la distance Knows the distance for sure
Entre l’Amour et la violence Between Love and Violence
Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Elle dansait/Dansait/Dansait She was dancing/She was dancing/She was dancing/She was dancing/Dancing/Dancing
Je roulais des mécaniques I was riding mechanics
Pendant qu’elle roulait des hanches As she rolled her hips
Au fond d’un beuglant magique At the bottom of a magic bellow
Elle imposait le silence She imposed silence
A des clients rouge brique To brick red customers
Buvant du champagne rance Drinking rancid champagne
Qui l’auraient payé cent briques Who would have paid a hundred bricks
Mais elle venait pour la danseBut she came for the dance
