Noir Texte

Walking

Got your jacket - got your coat - got your trousers
Got your shoes - your co-respondent shoes?
Let's go
Walking - go walking
Walking - go walking

Hungrily searching through the city's rainy streets
Don't look up because the sky is grey and the buildings threaten you with their size
I saw a face in the window - maybe she was lonely or waiting for her lover
A car does a three point turn and roars away into the distance
Street lights mirrored in puddles
Stray dogs with matted coats trott towards the dustbins that spew their rubbish in the road
A couple arm in arm hurry to their party
As a gendarme smiles at their innocent love
C'mon

Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we're feeling blue
Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we need a view

Street walkers in ballet skirts and fur coats in desperate seedy dorways
Sailors meeting angels in bars to drink and kiss their life away
Restaurant signs like beacons in the dusk invite you with their warmth
To fill your belly and drink a glass
Under deco lights and painted ancient faces
Waitresses in black with aprons and red lips
Sexy little things that you want to take home for the night
A coffee and a cognac will help you tell your stories to your best friend
C'mon

Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we're feeling blue
Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we need a view

A stranger in Paris in his long coat and black hat smokes a gauloise on the stairs
His pride, once stiff and straining now sleeps until tomorrow
He left the money under her pillow
There's a red room in the heart of town
Where you can be the object of strange desire
To see Salome dance in time's dusty mirror
While the music swarms inside your skull
Leather boys on motorcycles whistle as they ride
On the ancient bridge two people embrace
C'mon

Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we're feeling blue
Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we need a view

Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we're feeling blue
Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we need a view

Walking - go walking
Walking - go walking

Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - everytime we're feeling blue
Walking - that's what we do
Go walking - walking!

French translation by Georg Kajanus
Un étranger à Paris avec son manteau et chapeau noir
Fume une gauloise sur les escaliers
Sa bite autrefois bien dure et forme, maintenant dort jusqu'a demain
Ill a laissé l'argent en dessous de son orreiler
Il y a une chambre rouge au centre de la ville
Où on peut trouver des désirs étranges
De voir Salomé dansant dans le miroir
Comme un reflet poussiére d'un temp perdu
Pendant que la musique se fait prisonnière dans sa tête
Les garcons en cuir sautent sur les motos et s'enfulent en sifflant
Dur les vieux pont un couple s'embrasse

German translation by Andrea Stollorcz
Straßenmädchen in Balletröcken und Pelzen in schäbigen Torwegen
Matrosen treffen Engel in Bars, trinken und lieben sich zu Tode
Restaurantschilder locken Dich mit ihrer Wärme wie Leuchttürme in der Dämmerung
Hau Dir den Bauch voll und leere das Glas
Unter Dekolampen und angemahlten alten Gesichtern
Kellnerinnen in Schwarz mit Schürzen und roten Lippen
Kleine sexy Dinger, die Du mit nach Hause nehmen willst heut Nacht
Mit Kaffee und Cognac erzählen sich Deine Geschichten leichter
