Les Négresses Vertes

Les Négresses Vertes, formed in 1987, is a French music group that is best described as a fusion of world music and some aspects of alternative rock. Their tracks often feature acoustic guitar and accordion, as well as some tracks containing many other 'traditional' instruments such as piano and brass. Their style is fairly upbeat and energetic on the majority of their tracks, with unusual rhythms, vocals delivered with a generous dose of zeal and vibrant energy, and accompaniment melodies ranging from lilting and distant to eccentric and fast-paced. These two factors give many of their pieces a strong sense of direction. more »

Un soir d'avril devant sa tele One April night in front of her TV
Maria desemparee Maria distraught
Ouvre sa fenetre en pleurant Opens her window crying
Et s'envoie pour le neant and sails into the void
Un diablotin ne mange pas d'pain An imp doesn't eat bread
Fini le temps do suicide en blanc Finish the time with suicide in white
D'overdose de medicaments From overdose of pills
Et le tranche-veine est revolu And the slice of vein is in the past
Les medecins ils n'en veulent plus The doctors don't want anymore
Quant a mourir a petit feu As for the little fire dying
Oui ca devient bien Yes it turns out well
Trop dangereux Too dangerous
Hey Maria Hey Maria
Tu es morte et moi je suis la You're dead and me, I'm there
Mey Maria You're dead and me, I'm there
Tu es morte je suis toujours la. You're dead, I'm always there.
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
L'acte d'auto-crime The self-inflicted crime
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
Et mon coeur s'abime And my heart is damaged
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
L'acte d'auto-crime The self-inflicted crime
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
Et mon coeur s'abime And my heart is damaged
Les diablotins ne meurent pas The imps aren't
D'faim paupers
Il why a tant de gens competents There are so many competent people
Qui mettent fin a leurs angoisses who put an end to their agonies
En les noyant dans le sang and drown them in the blood
Sur le periph' a toute berzingue On the freeway pedal to the metal
On se scratche la gueule One scratches the mouth
Comme des dingues like loonies
28 tonneaux youpi zobi 28 barrels yippee dicky
T'as pas de voiture, prends le metro You don't have a car, take the Metro
Mais dans la gueule, il faut But in the mouth, it takes
See'qui faut what it takes
Ouais dans la gueule, il faut Yep in the mouth, it takes
See'qui faut. what it takes
Hey Maria Hey Maria
Tu es morte et moi je suis la You're dead and me, I'm there
Mey Maria You're dead and me, I'm there
Tu es morte je suis toujours la. You're dead, I'm always there.
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
L'acte d'auto-crime The self-inflicted crime
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
Et mon coeur s'abime And my heart is damaged
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
L'acte d'auto-crime The self-inflicted crime
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
Et mon coeur s'abime And my heart is damaged
Vrai qu'on mourra un jour It's true one will die someday
Ou l'autre or another
Vu que nous ne sommes pas eternels Seeing that we aren't eternal
Alors, bon, comme l'a dit l'autre So, fine, as said the other
Pourquoi devancer l'appel Why be ahead of the call
Vieillir, vieillir avant d'mourir To age, to age before dying
Si ce n'est pas rigolo If this isn't comical
Ca me fait crever de rire This makes me die of laughing
See'est aussi con que je respire It's also stupid that I breathe
Oui ca me fait crever de rire Yes it makes me die of laughing
See'est aussi con que je respire It's also stupid that I breathe
Ouais ca me fait crever de rire Yep this makes me die of laughing
Hey Maria Hey Maria
Tu es morte et moi je suis la You're dead and me, I'm there
Mey Maria You're dead and me, I'm there
Tu es morte je suis toujours la. You're dead, I'm always there.
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
L'acte d'auto-crime The self-inflicted crime
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
Et mon coeur s'abime And my heart is damaged
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
L'acte d'auto-crime The self-inflicted crime
See'est de l'egoisme It's from egotism
Et mon coeur s'abime And my heart is damaged
