La Complainte De Mackie(original) |
Les dents longues, redoutables |
Le requin tue sans merci |
Le surin au fond d’la poche |
Sans reproche, c’est Mackie |
Sur les bords de la Tamise |
Le sang coule dans la nuit |
On périt les poches vides |
Poches pleines, quelqu’un fuit |
Gens de bien ou hommes riches |
Disparaissent au grand jour |
Sur leurs traces, quelqu’un passe |
Qui ramène le butin |
Jenny Trowler agonise |
Un couteau entre les seins |
Sur les rives dans l’eau grise |
M’sieur Mackie s’en lave les mains |
Et la veuve d'âge tendre |
Que l’on viole dans son lit |
Que l’on vole sans attendre |
Le gentleman, c’est Mackie |
Le feu gronde dans la ville |
Le feu brille, la mort vient |
On s'étonne, on questionne |
Oui mais Mackie ne sait rien |
Le sang coule des mâchoires |
Au repas du grand requin |
Mains gantées et nappe blanche |
Monsieur Mackie croque son prochain… |
(translation) |
The long, fearsome teeth |
The shark kills mercilessly |
The sourin at the bottom of the pocket |
Without reproach, it's Mackie |
On the banks of the Thames |
Blood flows in the night |
We perish with empty pockets |
Pockets full, someone is leaking |
Good people or rich men |
Disappear in broad daylight |
In their footsteps, someone passes |
Who brings back the loot |
Jenny Trowler is dying |
A knife between the breasts |
On the banks in the gray water |
Mister Mackie washes his hands of it |
And the tender-aged widow |
That we rape in his bed |
That we fly without waiting |
The gentleman is Mackie |
The fire roars through the city |
The fire is shining, death is coming |
We wonder, we question |
Yeah but Mackie don't know nothing |
Blood flows from the jaws |
At the Great Shark's Meal |
Gloved hands and white tablecloth |
Mr. Mackie bites his next… |
