Les paroles de la chanson
« The suburbs »
Arcade Fire
In the suburbs I
I learned to drive
And you told me we’d never survive
Grab your mother’s keys we’re leaving
You always seemed so sure
That one day we’d fbe fighting
In a suburban war
Your part of town against mine
I saw you standing on the opposite shore
But by the time the first bombs fell
We were already bored
We were already, already bored
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling again
The kids want to be so hard
But in my dreams we’re still screaming
And running through the yard
And all of the walls that they built in the seventies finally fall
And all of the houses they build in the seventies finally fall...
Meant nothin’ at all?
Meant nothin’ at all,
It meant nothin
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
And into the night
So can you understand
Why I want a daughter while I’m still young?
I wanna hold her hand,
And show her some beauty,
Before this damage is done
But if it’s too much to ask,
If it’s too much to ask
Then send me a son
Under the overpass
In the parking lot we’re still waiting
It’s already passed
So move your feet from hot pavement
And into the grass
Cause it’s already passed
It’s already, already passed
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling again
I’m moving past the feeling
I’m moving past the feeling
In my dreams we’re still screaming
We’re still screaming
We’re still screaming
I learned to drive
And you told me we’d never survive
Grab your mother’s keys we’re leaving
You always seemed so sure
That one day we’d fbe fighting
In a suburban war
Your part of town against mine
I saw you standing on the opposite shore
But by the time the first bombs fell
We were already bored
We were already, already bored
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling again
The kids want to be so hard
But in my dreams we’re still screaming
And running through the yard
And all of the walls that they built in the seventies finally fall
And all of the houses they build in the seventies finally fall...
Meant nothin’ at all?
Meant nothin’ at all,
It meant nothin
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
And into the night
So can you understand
Why I want a daughter while I’m still young?
I wanna hold her hand,
And show her some beauty,
Before this damage is done
But if it’s too much to ask,
If it’s too much to ask
Then send me a son
Under the overpass
In the parking lot we’re still waiting
It’s already passed
So move your feet from hot pavement
And into the grass
Cause it’s already passed
It’s already, already passed
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling
Sometimes I can’t believe it
I’m moving past the feeling again
I’m moving past the feeling
I’m moving past the feeling
In my dreams we’re still screaming
We’re still screaming
We’re still screaming
