Below, I translated the lyrics of the song In My Street by Madness from French to English.
There's Turkish drug dealers
There's Turkish drug dealers
An Irish halfway house
An Irish halfway house
There's ten full black bin bags
There's ten full black bin bags
Blowing round the gaff
Blowing round the gaff
And everybody's moaning about their own birthday
And everyone's moaning about their own birthday
And everybody's talking about getting away
And everybody's talking about getting away
It's just the people you meet
It's just the people you meet
I've got a line but I can't get away
I've got a line but I can't get away
Oh no well not until judgement day
Oh no well not until judgment day
There's Eggy, Beany, Popple and Chainy
There's Eggy, Beany, Popple and Chainy
Ronnie and Freddy, Terry and Painy
Ronnie and Freddy, Terry and Painy
All telling their own kids when they should go to bed
All telling their own kids when they should go to bed
All sitting around their living room off their heads
All sitting around their living room off their heads
'Cause in my street
'Cause in my street
It's all the lovely people you meet
It's all the lovely people you meet
I've got a line but I can't get away
I've got a line but I can't get away
Oh no well not until judgement day
Oh no well not until judgment day
It's a strange old thing
It's a strange old thing
When you're on your own
When you're on your own
Amongst other people
Amongst other people
And your far from home
And your far from home
But at other times
But at other times
Thinks can change
Think can change
In the nod of a wink
In the nod of a wink
The blink of an eye
The blink of an eye
And you realize
And you realize
It's all just in your mind
It's all just in your mind
And you realize
And you realize
It's all just in your mind
It's all just in your mind
And then your free
And then your free
And then your free
And then your free
It's just the people you meet
It's just the people you meet
It's just the people you meet
It's just the people you meet
We moved here so long ago
We moved here so long ago
I don't remember why
I don't remember why
Must be forty-odd years now
Must be forty-odd years now
But don't time fly
But don't time fly
When your having fun
When your having fun
A black cab driver
A black cab driver
A cheating conniver
A cheating conniver
And everybody's talking about getting away
And everybody's talking about getting away
Looks like we're here to stay
Looks like we're here to stay
'Cause in my street
'Cause in my street
It's all the lovely people you meet
It's all the lovely people you meet
I've got a line but I can't get away
I've got a line but I can't get away
Oh well no not until judgement day
Oh well no not until judgment day
'Cause in my street
'Cause in my street
It's all the people you meet
It's all the people you meet
We've had a line but we can't get away
We've had a line but we can't get away
No not until judgement day
No until judgment day
