The Bewlay Brothers
David Bowie
And so the story goes they wore the clothes
They said the things to make it seem improbable
Whale of a lie like they hope it was
And the good men tomorrow had their feet in the wallow
And their heads of brawn were nicer shorn
And how they bought their positions with saccharin and trust
And the world was asleep to our latent fuss
Sighing's swirl through the streets like the crust of the sun, the Bewlay Brothers
In our wings that bark
Flashing teeth of brass
Standing tall in the dark
Oh, and we were gone
Hanging out with your dwarf men
We were so turned on
By your lack of conclusions
I was stone and he was wax so he could scream and still relax
Unbelievable
And we frightened the small children away
And our talk was old and dust would flow
Through our veins and though it was midnight back at the kitchen door
Like the grim face on the cathedral floor
The solid book we wrote cannot be found today
And it was stalking time for the moon boys, the Bewlay Brothers
With our backs on the arch
And if the Devil may be here
But he can't sing about that
Oh, and we were gone
Real cool traders
We were so turned on
You thought we were fakers
And now the dress is hung, the ticket pawned
The factor max that proved the fact is melted down
Woven on the edging of my pillow
And my brother lays upon the rocks
He could be dead, he could be not, he could be you
He's chameleon, comedian, Corinthian and caricature
Shooting up pie in the sky
Bewlay brothers
In the feeble, in the bad
Bewlay brothers
In the blessed and cold
In the crutch-hungry dark
Was where we flayed our mark
Oh, and we were gone
Kings of Oblivion
We were so turned on
In the night walk pavilion
Lay me place and bake me pie I'm starving for me gravy
Leave my shoes and door unlocked I might just slip away
Just for the day, ay
Please come away, ay
Just for the day, ay
Please come away, ay
Please come away, ay
Just for the day, ay
Please come away, ay
Please come away, ay
Please come away
Please come away

And so the story goes they wore the clothes
Et ainsi va l'histoire, ils portaient les vêtements
They said the things to make it seem improbable
Ils disaient les choses pour que cela semble improbable
Whale of a lie like they hope it was
Un mensonge énorme comme ils espéraient que c'était
And the good men tomorrow had their feet in the wallow
Et les bons hommes de demain avaient les pieds dans la boue
And their heads of brawn were nicer shorn
Et leurs têtes de force étaient plus belles rasées
And how they bought their positions with saccharin and trust
Et comment ils ont acheté leurs positions avec du saccharin et de la confiance
And the world was asleep to our latent fuss
Et le monde dormait à notre agitation latente
Sighing's swirl through the streets like the crust of the sun, the Bewlay Brothers
Les soupirs tourbillonnent dans les rues comme la croûte du soleil, les frères Bewlay
In our wings that bark
Dans nos ailes qui aboient
Flashing teeth of brass
Des dents de laiton clignotantes
Standing tall in the dark
Debout dans le noir
Oh, and we were gone
Oh, et nous étions partis
Hanging out with your dwarf men
Traînant avec vos nains
We were so turned on
Nous étions tellement excités
By your lack of conclusions
Par votre manque de conclusions
I was stone and he was wax so he could scream and still relax
J'étais en pierre et il était en cire alors il pouvait crier et se détendre
Unbelievable
Incroyable
And we frightened the small children away
Et nous avons effrayé les petits enfants
And our talk was old and dust would flow
Et notre conversation était vieille et la poussière coulait
Through our veins and though it was midnight back at the kitchen door
Dans nos veines et bien qu'il était minuit à la porte de la cuisine
Like the grim face on the cathedral floor
Comme le visage sévère sur le sol de la cathédrale
The solid book we wrote cannot be found today
Le livre solide que nous avons écrit ne peut pas être trouvé aujourd'hui
And it was stalking time for the moon boys, the Bewlay Brothers
Et c'était l'heure de la traque pour les garçons de la lune, les frères Bewlay
With our backs on the arch
Avec nos dos sur l'arche
And if the Devil may be here
Et si le Diable peut être ici
But he can't sing about that
Mais il ne peut pas chanter à ce sujet
Oh, and we were gone
Oh, et nous étions partis
Real cool traders
De vrais commerçants cool
We were so turned on
Nous étions tellement excités
You thought we were fakers
Vous pensiez que nous étions des imposteurs
And now the dress is hung, the ticket pawned
Et maintenant la robe est suspendue, le billet est mis en gage
The factor max that proved the fact is melted down
Le facteur max qui a prouvé le fait est fondu
Woven on the edging of my pillow
Tissé sur le bord de mon oreiller
And my brother lays upon the rocks
Et mon frère repose sur les rochers
He could be dead, he could be not, he could be you
Il pourrait être mort, il pourrait ne pas l'être, il pourrait être toi
He's chameleon, comedian, Corinthian and caricature
Il est caméléon, comédien, Corinthien et caricature
Shooting up pie in the sky
Tirant de la tarte dans le ciel

Oh, and we were gone
Oh, et nous étions partis
Kings of Oblivion
Rois de l'Oubli
We were so turned on
Nous étions tellement excités
In the night walk pavilion
Dans le pavillon de la promenade nocturne
Lay me place and bake me pie I'm starving for me gravy
Mets-moi en place et fais-moi une tarte, je meurs de faim pour ma sauce
Leave my shoes and door unlocked I might just slip away

And how they bought their positions with saccharin and trust

Unbelievable

And we frightened the small children away
E nós assustamos as crianças pequenas
And our talk was old and dust would flow
E nossa conversa era velha e a poeira fluiria
Through our veins and though it was midnight back at the kitchen door
Através de nossas veias e embora fosse meia-noite de volta à porta da cozinha
Like the grim face on the cathedral floor
Como o rosto sombrio no chão da catedral
The solid book we wrote cannot be found today

And our talk was old and dust would flow
E il nostro discorso era vecchio e la polvere fluiva
Through our veins and though it was midnight back at the kitchen door
