(Nothing But) Flowers

DAVID BYRNE

Letra Traducción

Here we stand
Like an Adam and an Eve
Waterfalls
The Garden of Eden
Two fools in love
So beautiful and strong
The birds in the trees
Are smiling upon them
From the age of the dinosaurs
Cars have run on gasoline
Where, where have they gone?
Now, it's nothing but flowers

There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
You got it, you got it

We caught a rattlesnake
Now we got something for dinner
We got it, we got it

There was a shopping mall
Now it's all covered with flowers
You've got it, you've got it

If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
You've got it, you've got it

Years ago
I was an angry young man
And I'd pretend
That I was a billboard
Standing tall
By the side of the road
I fell in love
With a beautiful highway
This used to be real estate
Now it's only fields and trees
Where, where is the town
Now, it's nothing but flowers
The highways and cars
Were sacrificed for agriculture
I thought that we'd start over
But I guess I was wrong

Once there were parking lots
Now it's a peaceful oasis
You've got it, you've got it

This was a Pizza Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
You got it, you got it

I miss the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
You got it, you got it

And as things fell apart
Nobody paid much attention
You got it, you got it

I dream of cherry pies,
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
You got it, you got it

We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
You got it, you got it

This was a discount store,
Now it's turned into a cornfield
You've got it, you've got it

Don't leave me stranded here
I can't get used to this lifestyle

Here we stand
Aquí estamos
Like an Adam and an Eve
Como un Adán y una Eva
Waterfalls
Cascadas
The Garden of Eden
El Jardín del Edén
Two fools in love
Dos tontos enamorados
So beautiful and strong
Tan hermosos y fuertes
The birds in the trees
Los pájaros en los árboles
Are smiling upon them
Están sonriendo sobre ellos
From the age of the dinosaurs
Desde la era de los dinosaurios
Cars have run on gasoline
Los coches han funcionado con gasolina
Where, where have they gone?
¿Dónde, dónde se han ido?
Now, it's nothing but flowers
Ahora, no es nada más que flores
There was a factory
Había una fábrica
Now there are mountains and rivers
Ahora hay montañas y ríos
You got it, you got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
We caught a rattlesnake
Atrapamos una serpiente de cascabel
Now we got something for dinner
Ahora tenemos algo para cenar
We got it, we got it
Lo tenemos, lo tenemos
There was a shopping mall
Había un centro comercial
Now it's all covered with flowers
Ahora está todo cubierto de flores
You've got it, you've got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
If this is paradise
Si esto es el paraíso
I wish I had a lawnmower
Desearía tener una cortadora de césped
You've got it, you've got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
Years ago
Hace años
I was an angry young man
Yo era un joven enojado
And I'd pretend
Y fingiría
That I was a billboard
Que era un cartel
Standing tall
De pie alto
By the side of the road
Al lado de la carretera
I fell in love
Me enamoré
With a beautiful highway
De una hermosa autopista
This used to be real estate
Esto solía ser bienes raíces
Now it's only fields and trees
Ahora solo son campos y árboles
Where, where is the town
¿Dónde, dónde está el pueblo?
Now, it's nothing but flowers
Ahora, no es nada más que flores
The highways and cars
Las autopistas y los coches
Were sacrificed for agriculture
Fueron sacrificados por la agricultura
I thought that we'd start over
Pensé que empezaríamos de nuevo
But I guess I was wrong
Pero supongo que estaba equivocado
Once there were parking lots
Una vez hubo estacionamientos
Now it's a peaceful oasis
Ahora es un oasis pacífico
You've got it, you've got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
This was a Pizza Hut
Esto era un Pizza Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
Ahora está todo cubierto de margaritas
You got it, you got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
I miss the honky tonks,
Echo de menos los honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
Dairy Queens, y 7-Elevens
You got it, you got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
And as things fell apart
Y mientras las cosas se desmoronaban
Nobody paid much attention
Nadie prestó mucha atención
You got it, you got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
I dream of cherry pies,
Sueño con tartas de cereza,
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
Barras de caramelo, y galletas de chispas de chocolate
You got it, you got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
We used to microwave
Solíamos usar el microondas
Now we just eat nuts and berries
Ahora solo comemos nueces y bayas
You got it, you got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
This was a discount store,
Esto era una tienda de descuento,
Now it's turned into a cornfield
Ahora se ha convertido en un campo de maíz
You've got it, you've got it
Lo tienes, lo tienes
Don't leave me stranded here
No me dejes abandonado aquí
I can't get used to this lifestyle
No puedo acostumbrarme a este estilo de vida
Here we stand
Aqui estamos nós
Like an Adam and an Eve
Como um Adão e uma Eva
Waterfalls
Cachoeiras
The Garden of Eden
O Jardim do Éden
Two fools in love
Dois tolos apaixonados
So beautiful and strong
Tão belos e fortes
The birds in the trees
Os pássaros nas árvores
Are smiling upon them
Estão sorrindo para eles
From the age of the dinosaurs
Desde a era dos dinossauros
Cars have run on gasoline
Os carros funcionam com gasolina
Where, where have they gone?
Onde, onde eles foram?
Now, it's nothing but flowers
Agora, não é nada além de flores
There was a factory
Havia uma fábrica
Now there are mountains and rivers
Agora há montanhas e rios
You got it, you got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
We caught a rattlesnake
Nós pegamos uma cascavel
Now we got something for dinner
Agora temos algo para o jantar
We got it, we got it
Nós conseguimos, nós conseguimos
There was a shopping mall
Havia um shopping
Now it's all covered with flowers
Agora está todo coberto de flores
You've got it, you've got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
If this is paradise
Se isso é o paraíso
I wish I had a lawnmower
Eu gostaria de ter um cortador de grama
You've got it, you've got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
Years ago
Anos atrás
I was an angry young man
Eu era um jovem irritado
And I'd pretend
E eu fingia
That I was a billboard

Standing tall
De pé alto
By the side of the road
À beira da estrada
I fell in love
Eu me apaixonei
With a beautiful highway
Por uma bela rodovia
This used to be real estate
Isso costumava ser imóveis
Now it's only fields and trees
Agora são apenas campos e árvores
Where, where is the town
Onde, onde está a cidade
Now, it's nothing but flowers
Agora, não é nada além de flores
The highways and cars
As rodovias e carros
Were sacrificed for agriculture
Foram sacrificados pela agricultura
I thought that we'd start over
Eu pensei que começaríamos de novo
But I guess I was wrong
Mas acho que estava errado
Once there were parking lots
Uma vez havia estacionamentos
Now it's a peaceful oasis
Agora é um oásis pacífico
You've got it, you've got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
This was a Pizza Hut
Isso era uma Pizza Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
Agora está todo coberto de margaridas
You got it, you got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
I miss the honky tonks,
Sinto falta dos bares,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
Dairy Queens e 7-Elevens
You got it, you got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
And as things fell apart
E enquanto as coisas desmoronavam
Nobody paid much attention
Ninguém prestava muita atenção
You got it, you got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
I dream of cherry pies,
Eu sonho com tortas de cereja,
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
Barras de chocolate e biscoitos de chocolate
You got it, you got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
We used to microwave
Nós costumávamos usar o microondas
Now we just eat nuts and berries
Agora nós apenas comemos nozes e frutas
You got it, you got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
This was a discount store,
Isso era uma loja de descontos,
Now it's turned into a cornfield
Agora se transformou em um campo de milho
You've got it, you've got it
Você conseguiu, você conseguiu
Don't leave me stranded here
Não me deixe abandonado aqui
I can't get used to this lifestyle
Eu não consigo me acostumar com esse estilo de vida
Here we stand
Nous voici debout
Like an Adam and an Eve
Comme un Adam et une Ève
