En Blue Jeans Et Blouson D'cuir Lyrics in English by Salvatore Adamo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song En Blue Jeans Et Blouson D'cuir by Salvatore Adamo from Italian to English.
En blue jeans et blouson d'cuir
In blue jeans and a leather jacket
Tu vas rejoindre les copains
You're going to join your friends
Si tu n'vois pas qu'est c'qu'ils vont dire
If you don't see what they'll say
Quand tu les verras demain
When you see them tomorrow
En blue jeans et blouson d'cuir
In blue jeans and a leather jacket
Tu te crois en liberté
You think you're free
On ne pourrait te contredire
Nobody could contradict you
Ça blesserait ta dignité
That would hurt your dignity
En blue jeans et blouson d'cuir
In blue jeans and a leather jacket
Tu taquines tous les jupons
You flirt with all the girls
Vise-moi donc ça quelle allure !
Just look at that style!
T'as une affiche au pantalon !
You've got a sign on your pants!
Tu n'es pas mauvais garçon
You aren't a bad boy
Un p'tit rien te fait rougir
The slightest thing makes you blush
Vas profites de la leçon
Go on, learn your lesson
T'es pas fait pour jouer les durs
You're not made to act tough
Tes blue jeans, ton blouson d'cuir
Your blue jeans, your leather jacket
Tu les prends pour bouclier
You use them as a shield
Contre une vie qu'tu voudrais fuir
Against a life you'd like to flee
Parce qu'elle t'oblige à t'humilier
Because it forces you to humiliate yourself
En blue jeans et blouson d'cuir
In blue jeans and a leather jacket
Tu taquines les jupons
You flirt with the girls
Vise-moi donc ça quelle allure !
Just look at that style!
T'as une affiche au pantalon !
You've got a sign on your pants!
Tu n'es pas mauvais garçon
You aren't a bad boy
Un p'tit rien te fait rougir
The slightest thing makes you blush
Vas profites de la leçon
Go on, learn your lesson
T'es pas fait pour jouer les durs
You're not made to act tough
T'es pas fait pour jouer les durs
You're not made to act tough
T'es pas fait pour jouer les durs
You're not made to act tough
Did you like this lyrics translation?
bouclier — shield
Bouclier translates to "shield". It's an interesting word because it's not commonly found in everyday conversation or typical song lyrics, making it stand out.
In the song, the lyrics say, "Tes blue jeans, ton blouson d'cuir, Tu les prends pour bouclier, Contre une vie qu'tu voudrais fuir." Here, the blue jeans and leather jacket are metaphorically used as a shield against a life the person wants to escape, adding a layer of depth to the character's struggle and vulnerability.
