lyrics

REVOLUTION TONIGHT

ONE of the first English settlers' favourite games, played in southern lands,
would have been poisoning their hosts ;
to peel their skin off once they’re dead and use it to handcraft valuables.
I ask then for our own skin. If, at least, it would know the same "happy end".
But Adel, away during the assault, and appearing from nowhere, yells to me:
"We won't give them a chance, brother"
Cannons automatically turn to him.
The smile of the doomed on his lips, he swears to take them with us till hell’s gates.
Hope, as the wind, is blowing on the deck.
It’s caressing our cheeks with its name : RIOT
Adel has set into motion a weapon detonator, in the engine room.
It bears the seal 9/11.

REVOLUTION TONIGHT!

L’un des jeux favoris, pratiqués en terres australes par les premiers colons anglo-saxons,
aurait été l’empoisonnement de leurs hôtes ; pour leur soustraire, une fois mort,
leur peau et s’en confectionner des objets de valeur.
Je leur demande alors s’ils en accorderont au moins autant à la nôtre.
Mais Adel, absent pendant l’assaut, et surgissant de nulle part, me hurle :
« Nous ne leur en laisserons pas l’occasion mon frère »
Les canons pointent automatiquement dans sa direction.
Le sourire du condamné aux lèvres, il leur jure
de les emmener avec nous jusqu’aux portes de l’enfer.
L’espoir souffle comme le vent sur le pont.
Il caresse nos joues de son nom : mutinerie.
Adel a enclenché, dans la salle des machines,
le détonateur d’une arme arborant le sigle 9/11.
