Complainte De La Butte Lyrics

La lune, trop blme, (the moon, too white)
pose un diadme (puts a tiara)
sur tes cheveux roux. (on your red hair)
La lune, trop rousse, (the moon, too red)
de gloire clabousse (with glory splashes)
ton jupon plein de trous. (your ragged underskirt)
La lune, trop ple, (the moon, too pale)
caresse l'opale (caress the opal)
de tes yeux blass. (of your indifferent eyes)
Princesse de la rue, (princess of the streets)
sois la bienvenue (be welcome)
dans mon coeur bris. (in my broken heart)The stairways up to la butte
can make the wretched sigh.
While windmill wings of the Moulin
shelter you and I.Ma p'tite mandigotte, (my little beggar)
je sens ta menotte (I feel your hand)
qui cherche ma main. (searching for mine)
Je sens ta poitrine (I feel your chest)

et ta taille fine, (and your slim waist)
j'oublie mon chagrin. (I forget my sorrow)
Je sens sur tes lvres (I smell on your lips
une odeur de fivre, (a scent of fever)
de gosse mal nourrie, (of an underfed kid)
et sous ta caresse, (and under your caress)
je sens une ivresse (I feel a drunkeness)
qui m'anantit. (that kills me)The stairways up to la butte
Can make the wretched sigh
While windmill wings of the Moulin
Shelter you and Iet voil qu'elle trotte, (and there she goes strutting about)
la lune qui flotte, (the floating moon)
la princesse aussi. (along with the princess)lalala....Mes rves panouis. (my thriving dreams)Les escaliers de la butte (The stairways up to la butte)
sont durs aux misreux. (are tough on the poor)
Les ailes du Moulin (the wings of the Moulin)
protgent les amoureux. (shelter those who love)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

A

There is more than one artist with this name:

1) A is a British alternative rock band.
2) A [エース] is a Japanese visual rock band

British alternative rock band:
They formed in 1995 in Suffolk, England. The original line up was the three brothers: Jason Perry (Vocals), Adam Perry (Drums) and Giles Perry (Keyboard), with two friends Mark Chapman (Guitar) and Steve Swindon (Bass). Swindon quit the band in 1997 and was replaced by Daniel P. Carter.

After changing their name from 'Grand Designs' and abandoning their early progressive-inspired sound for a more punky feel, they released their début album "How Ace Are Buildings" in 1997.

The second album; "A vs. Monkey Kong", followed in 1999. Monkey Kong was a more poppy record than How Ace Are Buildings and the band toured the world, played festivals and enjoyed a small degree of success worldwide, especially in Germany.
Hi-Fi Serious was their third album, released in 2002. It was preceded by their biggest single to date, "Nothing", which saw the band reach the UK top ten for the first time, eventually hitting number 9. Starbucks was also a top 20 hit, named after the coffee chain.

The tour following Hi-Fi Serious saw the band playing their largest venues to date, headlining the 5000 capacity Brixton Academy as part of the Inner-City Sumo Tour. 'A' finally released their fourth album on June 27th 2005, entitled "Teen Dance Ordinance". The album had been recorded 2 years earlier, but due to Jason Perry's illness and record company squabbles its release was heavily delayed, by which time the group's following appears to be a mere cult once again. In 2006, Warner dropped 'A' from their record label, citing poor sales.

'A' then went on hiatus from 2006-2008, but have now returned, playing a few shows supporting The Wildhearts. They will be writing new material and hope to release an album in 2009. With this new era for the band the lineup has changed with bassist Daniel P. Carter not returning to the band and has been replaced by John Mitchell of It Bites.

The bands official website, A-Communication.com, has been shut down. A substitute forum has been setup by the fans and can be found at A-Communication.co.uk

Japanese visual rock band :
consisting of Shin-ichi on vocals, Seiya on bass, U-SUKE and MORI on guitar, and Tōki on drums.
