Better Off Dead

BERNIE TAUPIN, ELTON JOHN

Paroles Traduction

There was a face on a hoarding that someone had drawn on
And just enough time for the night to pass by without warning
Away in the distance there's a blue flashing light
Someone's in trouble somewhere tonight
As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse
The wind blows away all of yesterday's news

Well they've locked up their daughters and they battened the hatches
They always could find us but they never could catch us
Through the grease streaked window of an all night cafe
We watched the arrested get taken away
And that cigarette haze has ecology beat
As the whores and the drunks file in from the street

'Cause the steam's in the boiler, the coal's in the fire
If you ask how I am, then I'll just say inspired
If the thorn of a rose, is the thorn in your side
Then you're better off dead, if you haven't yet died

'Cause the steam's in the boiler, the coal's in the fire
If you ask how I am, then I'll just say inspired
If the thorn of a rose, is the thorn in your side
Then you're better off dead, if you haven't yet died

Better off dead, better off dead, better off dead
Better off dead, better off dead, better off dead
Better off dead, better of dead

There was a face on a hoarding that someone had drawn on
C'era un volto su un cartellone che qualcuno aveva disegnato
And just enough time for the night to pass by without warning
E giusto il tempo perché la notte passasse senza preavviso
Away in the distance there's a blue flashing light
Lontano, a distanza c'è una luce blu lampeggiante
Someone's in trouble somewhere tonight
Qualcuno è in difficoltà da qualche parte stasera
As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse
Mentre il neon tremolante è pronto a fondersi
The wind blows away all of yesterday's news
Il vento soffia via tutte le notizie di ieri
Well they've locked up their daughters and they battened the hatches
Beh, hanno rinchiuso le loro figlie e hanno battuto gli oblò
They always could find us but they never could catch us
Potevano sempre trovarci ma non sono mai riusciti a prenderci
Through the grease streaked window of an all night cafe
Attraverso la finestra unta di un cafè aperto tutta la notte
We watched the arrested get taken away
Abbiamo visto gli arrestati essere portati via
And that cigarette haze has ecology beat
E quella foschia di sigarette ha battuto l'ecologia
As the whores and the drunks file in from the street
Mentre le prostitute e gli ubriachi entrano dalla strada
'Cause the steam's in the boiler, the coal's in the fire
Perché il vapore è nella caldaia, il carbone è nel fuoco
If you ask how I am, then I'll just say inspired
Se mi chiedi come sto, allora dirò solo ispirato
If the thorn of a rose, is the thorn in your side
Se la spina di una rosa, è la spina nel tuo fianco
Then you're better off dead, if you haven't yet died
Allora è meglio che tu sia morto, se non sei ancora morto
'Cause the steam's in the boiler, the coal's in the fire
Perché il vapore è nella caldaia, il carbone è nel fuoco
If you ask how I am, then I'll just say inspired
Se mi chiedi come sto, allora dirò solo ispirato
If the thorn of a rose, is the thorn in your side
Se la spina di una rosa, è la spina nel tuo fianco
Then you're better off dead, if you haven't yet died
Allora è meglio che tu sia morto, se non sei ancora morto
Better off dead, better off dead, better off dead
Meglio morto, meglio morto, meglio morto
Better off dead, better off dead, better off dead
Meglio morto, meglio morto, meglio morto
Better off dead, better of dead
Meglio morto, meglio morto
