The Ballad of Melody Nelson |
«Pour l’amitié |
L’amitié entre hommes et femmes |
Impensable |
Parce que, il y a toujours |
Sous jacent |
Le désir animal» |
This is the story of Melody Nelson |
Apart from me, no one |
Ever took her in his arms |
Under her thumb, ice in the sun |
Oh, my Melody mine |
Oh, my Melody mine |
She was nothing but love, poor Melody Nelson |
Her life was more said than done |
But her days were numbered nil |
Count fourteen falls |
Fifteen on call |
A baby tiger was Melody Nelson |
Forever purring in the sun |
Just as dangerous as a child with a gun |
Shooting me down |
Oh, my melody, my Melody Nelson |
Still playing hurting games for fun |
As adorable as dumb |
Deaf to the sound |
To what’s going down, down, down |
