Four Simple Words
FRANK TURNER
Because we're all so very twenty first century,
You're probably listening to me on some kind of portable stereo
Maybe you're sitting on the back of the bus,
Or it's running up your sleeve, and you're across from your boss,
Or you're sitting in your bedroom on your own with the lights down low
I'd like to teach you four simple words, so that next time you come to a show,
You could sing those words back at me like they're the only ones that you know:
I want to dance, I want to dance
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Hi ho hi ho hi ho, we're heading out to the punk rock show
Colleagues and friends condescend with a smile,
But this is my culture man, this is my home
The dark huddled masses gather at the gate,
Yeah, the doors are at 7, and the show starts at 8
A few precious hours in a space of our own,
And when the band comes on, the only thing I really know:
I want to dance, I want to dance
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Yeah is anybody else sick of the music
That's churned out by lacklustre scenesters from Shoreditch?
Yeah it's all sex drugs and sins, like they're extras from Skins,
But it's OK because they don't really mean it
I want bands who had to work for their keep,
Drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep,
Sleeping on the floor in a stranger's place,
Hungry just to do it all again the next day
I want to dance, I want to dance
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
So put your hands on your hips, bring your knees in tight
Yeah we do this shit together man, no fists, no fights
We're not trying to shape the world so people think like us,
We just want our own space to dance, no favors no fuss
On blood sweat and vinyl we have a built ourselves a house,
So if the roof is on fire then we're going to put it out
Forget about the bitching and remember that you're blessed,
Punk is for the kids who never fit in with the rest, alright
Somebody told me that music with guitars
Was going out of fashion, and I had to laugh
This shit wasn't fashionable when I fell in love,
If the hipsters move on why should I give a fuck?
I want to dance, I want to dance,
I want me some lust and love and a smattering of that old time romance
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance
Yeah, I want to dance, I want to dance
I want me and you both to join hands down at the front
So the next time I see you, remember these words so
We'll sing like the barricades are down, and we'll dance like no one's around,
Singing four simple words
Because we're all so very twenty first century,
Weil wir alle so sehr im einundzwanzigsten Jahrhundert sind,
You're probably listening to me on some kind of portable stereo
Hörst du mir wahrscheinlich auf irgendeinem tragbaren Stereo zu
Maybe you're sitting on the back of the bus,
Vielleicht sitzt du im hinteren Teil des Busses,
Or it's running up your sleeve, and you're across from your boss,
Oder es läuft dir den Ärmel hoch und du sitzt deinem Chef gegenüber,
Or you're sitting in your bedroom on your own with the lights down low
Oder du sitzt alleine in deinem Schlafzimmer mit gedimmtem Licht
I'd like to teach you four simple words, so that next time you come to a show,
Ich möchte dir vier einfache Worte beibringen, damit du beim nächsten Mal, wenn du zu einer Show kommst,
You could sing those words back at me like they're the only ones that you know:
Du könntest diese Worte zu mir zurück singen, als wären sie die einzigen, die du kennst:
I want to dance, I want to dance
Ich will tanzen, ich will tanzen
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Ich will Lust und Liebe und eine Prise Romantik
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something
Aber ich bin nicht gut im Tanzen, und doch muss ich etwas tun
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Heute Abend werde ich es ernst nehmen, ich werde mein Glück versuchen, ich will tanzen
Hi ho hi ho hi ho, we're heading out to the punk rock show
Hi ho hi ho hi ho, wir machen uns auf den Weg zur Punk-Rock-Show
Colleagues and friends condescend with a smile,
Kollegen und Freunde lächeln herablassend,
But this is my culture man, this is my home
Aber das ist meine Kultur, Mann, das ist mein Zuhause
The dark huddled masses gather at the gate,
Die dunklen, gedrängten Massen versammeln sich am Tor,
Yeah, the doors are at 7, and the show starts at 8
Ja, die Türen öffnen um 7, und die Show beginnt um 8
A few precious hours in a space of our own,
Ein paar kostbare Stunden in einem Raum für uns allein,
And when the band comes on, the only thing I really know:
Und wenn die Band auftritt, ist das einzige, was ich wirklich weiß:
I want to dance, I want to dance
Ich will tanzen, ich will tanzen
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Ich will Lust und Liebe und eine Prise Romantik
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
Aber ich bin nicht gut im Tanzen, und doch muss ich etwas tun
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Heute Abend werde ich es ernst nehmen, ich werde mein Glück versuchen, ich will tanzen
Yeah is anybody else sick of the music
Ja, hat sonst noch jemand genug von der Musik
That's churned out by lacklustre scenesters from Shoreditch?
Die von uninspirierten Szenegängern aus Shoreditch produziert wird?
Yeah it's all sex drugs and sins, like they're extras from Skins,
Ja, es geht nur um Sex, Drogen und Sünden, als wären sie Statisten aus Skins,
But it's OK because they don't really mean it
Aber es ist in Ordnung, weil sie es nicht wirklich ernst meinen
I want bands who had to work for their keep,
Ich will Bands, die für ihren Unterhalt arbeiten mussten,
Drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep,
Tausend Meilen gefahren sind und eine Show ohne Schlaf gespielt haben,
Sleeping on the floor in a stranger's place,
Auf dem Boden in der Wohnung eines Fremden schlafen,
Hungry just to do it all again the next day
Hungrig, um es am nächsten Tag wieder zu tun
I want to dance, I want to dance
Ich will tanzen, ich will tanzen

Heute Abend werde ich es ernst nehmen, ich werde mein Glück versuchen, ich will tanzen

Also leg deine Hände auf deine Hüften, zieh deine Knie eng zusammen
Yeah we do this shit together man, no fists, no fights
Ja, wir machen diesen Scheiß zusammen, Mann, keine Fäuste, keine Kämpfe
We're not trying to shape the world so people think like us,
Wir versuchen nicht, die Welt so zu formen, dass die Leute wie wir denken,
We just want our own space to dance, no favors no fuss
Wir wollen nur unseren eigenen Platz zum Tanzen, keine Gefälligkeiten, kein Aufhebens
On blood sweat and vinyl we have a built ourselves a house,
Auf Blut, Schweiß und Vinyl haben wir uns ein Haus gebaut,
So if the roof is on fire then we're going to put it out
Also wenn das Dach brennt, dann werden wir es löschen
Forget about the bitching and remember that you're blessed,
Vergiss das Gezeter und erinnere dich daran, dass du gesegnet bist,
Punk is for the kids who never fit in with the rest, alright
Punk ist für die Kinder, die nie zu den anderen gepasst haben, in Ordnung
Somebody told me that music with guitars

Was going out of fashion, and I had to laugh
Aus der Mode kommt, und ich musste lachen
This shit wasn't fashionable when I fell in love,

If the hipsters move on why should I give a fuck?
Wenn die Hipster weiterziehen, warum sollte es mich kümmern?
I want to dance, I want to dance,
Ich will tanzen, ich will tanzen,
I want me some lust and love and a smattering of that old time romance
Ich will etwas Lust und Liebe und eine Prise von dieser alten Romantik
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something

Heute Abend werde ich es ernst nehmen, ich werde mein Glück versuchen

Ja, ich will tanzen, ich will tanzen

Ich will, dass du und ich uns beide an der Front die Hände reichen

We'll sing like the barricades are down, and we'll dance like no one's around,
Wir werden singen, als wären die Barrikaden unten, und wir werden tanzen, als wäre niemand da,

Hi ho hi ho hi ho, we're heading out to the punk rock show
Hi ho hi ho hi ho, stiamo andando allo spettacolo punk rock
Colleagues and friends condescend with a smile,
Colleghi e amici condiscono con un sorriso,
But this is my culture man, this is my home
Ma questa è la mia cultura, questa è la mia casa
The dark huddled masses gather at the gate,
Le masse oscure si radunano al cancello,
Yeah, the doors are at 7, and the show starts at 8
Sì, le porte sono alle 7, e lo spettacolo inizia alle 8
A few precious hours in a space of our own,
Poche preziose ore in uno spazio tutto nostro,
And when the band comes on, the only thing I really know:
E quando la band sale sul palco, l'unica cosa che so davvero:
I want to dance, I want to dance
Voglio ballare, voglio ballare
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Voglio lussuria e amore e un pizzico di romanticismo
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
Ma non sono bravo a ballare, eppure devo fare qualcosa
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Stasera giocherò dritto, prenderò la mia occasione, voglio ballare
Yeah is anybody else sick of the music
Sì, qualcun altro è stanco della musica
That's churned out by lacklustre scenesters from Shoreditch?
Che è prodotta da scenester mediocri di Shoreditch?
Yeah it's all sex drugs and sins, like they're extras from Skins,
Sì, è tutto sesso droghe e peccati, come se fossero comparse da Skins,
But it's OK because they don't really mean it
Ma va bene perché non lo intendono davvero
I want bands who had to work for their keep,
Voglio band che hanno dovuto lavorare per il loro mantenimento,
Drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep,
Hanno guidato mille miglia e hanno fatto uno spettacolo senza dormire,
Sleeping on the floor in a stranger's place,
Dormendo sul pavimento in un posto sconosciuto,
Hungry just to do it all again the next day
Affamati solo per rifarlo tutto il giorno dopo
I want to dance, I want to dance
Voglio ballare, voglio ballare
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Voglio lussuria e amore e un pizzico di romanticismo
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
Ma non sono bravo a ballare, eppure devo fare qualcosa
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Stasera giocherò dritto, prenderò la mia occasione, voglio ballare
So put your hands on your hips, bring your knees in tight
Quindi metti le mani sui fianchi, porta le ginocchia strette
Yeah we do this shit together man, no fists, no fights
Sì, facciamo questa merda insieme, niente pugni, niente litigi
We're not trying to shape the world so people think like us,
Non stiamo cercando di plasmare il mondo affinché le persone pensino come noi,
We just want our own space to dance, no favors no fuss
Vogliamo solo il nostro spazio per ballare, niente favori niente fronzoli
On blood sweat and vinyl we have a built ourselves a house,
Su sudore e vinile abbiamo costruito una casa,
So if the roof is on fire then we're going to put it out
Quindi se il tetto è in fiamme allora lo spegneremo
Forget about the bitching and remember that you're blessed,
Dimentica le lamentele e ricorda che sei benedetto,
Punk is for the kids who never fit in with the rest, alright
Il punk è per i ragazzi che non si sono mai adattati al resto, va bene
Somebody told me that music with guitars
Qualcuno mi ha detto che la musica con le chitarre
Was going out of fashion, and I had to laugh
Stava uscendo di moda, e ho dovuto ridere
This shit wasn't fashionable when I fell in love,
Questa merda non era alla moda quando mi sono innamorato,
If the hipsters move on why should I give a fuck?
Se gli hipster se ne vanno perché dovrei fregarmene?
I want to dance, I want to dance,
Voglio ballare, voglio ballare,
I want me some lust and love and a smattering of that old time romance
Voglio un po' di lussuria e amore e un pizzico di quel vecchio romanticismo
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something
Ma non sono bravo a ballare, eppure devo fare qualcosa
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance
Stasera giocherò dritto, prenderò la mia occasione
Yeah, I want to dance, I want to dance
Sì, voglio ballare, voglio ballare
I want me and you both to join hands down at the front
Voglio che io e te ci uniamo le mani davanti
So the next time I see you, remember these words so
Quindi la prossima volta che ti vedo, ricorda queste parole così
We'll sing like the barricades are down, and we'll dance like no one's around,
Canteremo come se le barricate fossero abbattute, e balleremo come se nessuno ci guardasse,
Singing four simple words
Cantando quattro semplici parole
Because we're all so very twenty first century,
Karena kita semua sangat abad kedua puluh satu,
You're probably listening to me on some kind of portable stereo
Kamu mungkin sedang mendengarkan saya melalui semacam stereo portabel
Maybe you're sitting on the back of the bus,
Mungkin kamu sedang duduk di belakang bus,
Or it's running up your sleeve, and you're across from your boss,
Atau itu meluncur di lenganmu, dan kamu berada di depan bosmu,
Or you're sitting in your bedroom on your own with the lights down low
Atau kamu sedang duduk di kamar tidurmu sendirian dengan lampu redup
I'd like to teach you four simple words, so that next time you come to a show,
Saya ingin mengajarkan empat kata sederhana, sehingga lain kali kamu datang ke pertunjukan,
You could sing those words back at me like they're the only ones that you know:
Kamu bisa menyanyikan kata-kata itu kembali kepadaku seolah-olah itu satu-satunya yang kamu tahu:
I want to dance, I want to dance
Saya ingin menari, saya ingin menari
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Saya ingin nafsu dan cinta serta sedikit romansa
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something
Tapi saya tidak pandai menari, namun saya harus melakukan sesuatu
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Malam ini saya akan bermain lurus, saya akan mengambil kesempatan saya, saya ingin menari
Hi ho hi ho hi ho, we're heading out to the punk rock show
Hi ho hi ho hi ho, kita menuju ke pertunjukan punk rock
Colleagues and friends condescend with a smile,
Rekan kerja dan teman-teman meremehkan dengan senyum,
But this is my culture man, this is my home
Tapi ini budaya saya, ini rumah saya
The dark huddled masses gather at the gate,
Massa yang gelap berkumpul di gerbang,
Yeah, the doors are at 7, and the show starts at 8
Ya, pintu dibuka jam 7, dan pertunjukan dimulai jam 8
A few precious hours in a space of our own,
Beberapa jam berharga di ruang kita sendiri,
And when the band comes on, the only thing I really know:
Dan ketika band mulai bermain, satu-satunya hal yang benar-benar saya tahu:
I want to dance, I want to dance
Saya ingin menari, saya ingin menari
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Saya ingin nafsu dan cinta serta sedikit romansa
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something

Yang dihasilkan oleh scenester yang tidak bersemangat dari Shoreditch?
Yeah it's all sex drugs and sins, like they're extras from Skins,
Ya, semuanya tentang seks, narkoba, dan dosa, seolah-olah mereka figuran dari Skins,
But it's OK because they don't really mean it
Tapi tidak apa-apa karena mereka tidak benar-benar serius
I want bands who had to work for their keep,
Saya ingin band yang harus bekerja keras untuk penghidupan mereka,
Drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep,
Mengemudi ribuan mil dan melakukan pertunjukan tanpa tidur,
Sleeping on the floor in a stranger's place,
Tidur di lantai di tempat orang asing,
Hungry just to do it all again the next day
Lapar hanya untuk melakukannya lagi keesokan harinya
I want to dance, I want to dance
Saya ingin menari, saya ingin menari
I want lust and love and a smattering of romance
Saya ingin nafsu dan cinta serta sedikit romansa
But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
Tapi saya tidak pandai menari, dan namun saya harus melakukan sesuatu
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance, I want to dance
Malam ini saya akan bermain lurus, saya akan mengambil kesempatan saya, saya ingin menari
So put your hands on your hips, bring your knees in tight
Jadi letakkan tanganmu di pinggulmu, tarik lututmu rapat-rapat
Yeah we do this shit together man, no fists, no fights
Ya, kita melakukan ini bersama, tanpa kekerasan, tanpa pertarungan
We're not trying to shape the world so people think like us,
Kita tidak mencoba membentuk dunia agar orang berpikir seperti kita,
We just want our own space to dance, no favors no fuss
Kita hanya ingin ruang kita sendiri untuk menari, tanpa bantuan tanpa repot
On blood sweat and vinyl we have a built ourselves a house,
Di atas keringat darah dan vinyl kami telah membangun rumah kami sendiri,
So if the roof is on fire then we're going to put it out
Jadi jika atapnya terbakar maka kami akan memadamkannya
Forget about the bitching and remember that you're blessed,
Lupakan tentang keluhan dan ingat bahwa kamu diberkati,
Punk is for the kids who never fit in with the rest, alright
Punk adalah untuk anak-anak yang tidak pernah cocok dengan yang lain, baiklah
Somebody told me that music with guitars
Seseorang memberitahu saya bahwa musik dengan gitar
Was going out of fashion, and I had to laugh
Akan ketinggalan zaman, dan saya harus tertawa
This shit wasn't fashionable when I fell in love,
Hal ini tidak pernah modis ketika saya jatuh cinta,
If the hipsters move on why should I give a fuck?
Jika para hipster pindah mengapa saya harus peduli?
I want to dance, I want to dance,
Saya ingin menari, saya ingin menari,
I want me some lust and love and a smattering of that old time romance
Saya ingin sedikit nafsu dan cinta serta sedikit romansa jaman dulu
But I'm no good at dancing, yet I have to do something
Tapi saya tidak pandai menari, namun saya harus melakukan sesuatu
Tonight I'm going to play it straight, I'm going to take my chance
Malam ini saya akan bermain lurus, saya akan mengambil kesempatan saya

Saya ingin saya dan kamu bergandengan tangan di depan
So the next time I see you, remember these words so
Jadi lain kali saya bertemu kamu, ingat kata-kata ini sehingga
We'll sing like the barricades are down, and we'll dance like no one's around,
Kita akan menyanyi seolah-olah barikade telah runtuh, dan kita akan menari seolah tidak ada yang melihat,
