Neighborhood #4 (7 Kettles)
William Butler, Win Butler, Regine Chassagne, Tim Kingsbury, Richard R Parry
I am waitin' 'til I don't know when
'Cause I'm sure it's gonna happen then
Time keeps creepin' through the neighborhood
Killing old folks, wakin' up babies
Just like we knew it would
All the neighbors are startin' up a fire
Burning all the old folks the witches and the liars
My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids
But my heart keeps watchin'
Through the skin of my eyelids
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
Well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
It's not a lover I want no more
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
But there's some spirit I used to know
That's been drowned out by the radio
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
You can't raise a baby on motor oil
Just like a seed down in the soil
You gotta give it time
I am waitin' 'til I don't know when
J'attends jusqu'à ce que je ne sache quand
'Cause I'm sure it's gonna happen then
Parce que je suis sûr que ça va arriver à ce moment-là
Time keeps creepin' through the neighborhood
Le temps continue de s'infiltrer dans le quartier
Killing old folks, wakin' up babies
Tuant les vieux, réveillant les bébés
Just like we knew it would
Tout comme nous savions que ça le ferait
All the neighbors are startin' up a fire
Tous les voisins commencent un feu
Burning all the old folks the witches and the liars
Brûlant tous les vieux, les sorcières et les menteurs
My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids
Mes yeux sont couverts par les mains de mes enfants à naître
But my heart keeps watchin'
Mais mon cœur continue de regarder
Through the skin of my eyelids
À travers la peau de mes paupières
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
On dit qu'une casserole surveillée ne bouillira jamais
Well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed
Eh bien, j'ai fermé les yeux et rien n'a changé
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
Juste de l'eau qui se réchauffe dans les flammes
It's not a lover I want no more
Ce n'est pas un amoureux que je veux plus
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
Et ce n'est pas le paradis que je désire
But there's some spirit I used to know
Mais il y a un esprit que je connaissais
That's been drowned out by the radio
Qui a été noyé par la radio
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
On dit qu'une casserole surveillée ne bouillira jamais
You can't raise a baby on motor oil
Vous ne pouvez pas élever un bébé avec de l'huile de moteur

Estou esperando até não sei quando
'Cause I'm sure it's gonna happen then
Porque tenho certeza que vai acontecer então

Meus olhos estão cobertos pelas mãos dos meus filhos não nascidos
But my heart keeps watchin'

Através da pele das minhas pálpebras
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
Dizem que uma panela observada nunca ferve
Well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed
Bem, eu fechei meus olhos e nada mudou
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
Apenas alguma água ficando mais quente nas chamas
It's not a lover I want no more
Não é um amante que eu quero mais
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
E não é o céu que estou ansiando
But there's some spirit I used to know
Mas há algum espírito que eu costumava conhecer
That's been drowned out by the radio
Que foi abafado pelo rádio
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
Dizem que uma panela observada nunca ferve

Well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed
Bueno, cerré los ojos y nada cambió
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
Solo un poco de agua que se calienta en las llamas
It's not a lover I want no more
Ya no quiero un amante
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
Y no anhelo el cielo
But there's some spirit I used to know
Pero hay algún espíritu que solía conocer
That's been drowned out by the radio
Que ha sido ahogado por la radio
They say a watched pot won't ever boil

Well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed
Nun, ich habe meine Augen geschlossen und nichts hat sich verändert
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
Nur etwas Wasser, das in den Flammen heißer wird
It's not a lover I want no more
Es ist nicht ein Liebhaber, den ich nicht mehr will
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
Und es ist nicht der Himmel, nach dem ich mich sehne

Dicono che una pentola osservata non bolle mai
Well I closed my eyes and nothin' changed
Beh, ho chiuso gli occhi e niente è cambiato
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
Solo un po' d'acqua che si riscalda nelle fiamme
It's not a lover I want no more
Non è un amante che voglio più
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
