Time to Pretend

Andrew Vanwyngarden, Ben Goldwasser

Lyrics Translation

I'm feelin' rough, I'm feelin' raw
I'm in the prime of my life
Let's make some music, make some money
Find some models for wives
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars

This is our decision to live fast and die young
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun
Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

Forget about our mothers and our friends
We're fated to pretend
To pretend
We're fated to pretend
To pretend

I'll miss the playgrounds
And the animals and digging up worms
I'll miss the comfort of my mother
And the weight of the world
I'll miss my sister, miss my father
Miss my dog and my home
Yeah, I'll miss the boredom
And the freedom and the time spent alone

But there is really nothing, nothing we can do
Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
We'll find some more models, everything must run its course

We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
We were fated to pretend
To pretend
We're fated to pretend
To pretend

I said yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm feelin' rough, I'm feelin' raw
'To me sentindo incomodado, à flor da pele
I'm in the prime of my life
Estou na flor da idade
Let's make some music, make some money
Vamos fazer música, vamos fazer dinheiro
Find some models for wives
Vamos casar com modelos de passarela
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars
Eu vou me mudar pra Paris, injetar heroína e foder as estrelas
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars
Você homem, a ilha, cocaína e os carros de luxo
This is our decision to live fast and die young
Essa é a nossa decisão, viver a vida louca e morrer jovem
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun
A gente enxerga além, agora vamos nos divertir
Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Sim, é tudo tão intenso pra aguentar, mas o que a gente pode fazer a respeito?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?
Arrumar um emprego num escritório e acordar pra pegar o transporte público de manhã?
Forget about our mothers and our friends
Esqueça das nossas mães e dos nossos amigos
We're fated to pretend
Nós estamos fadados a fingir
To pretend
A fingir
We're fated to pretend
Nós estamos fadados a fingir
To pretend
A fingir
I'll miss the playgrounds
Eu vou sentir falta do parquinho
And the animals and digging up worms
E dos animais e de cavar a terra atrás de minhocas
I'll miss the comfort of my mother
Eu vou sentir falta do conforto da minha mãe
And the weight of the world
E do peso do mundo
I'll miss my sister, miss my father
Eu vou sentir falta da minha irmã e do meu pai
Miss my dog and my home
Vou sentir falta do meu cachorro e da minha casa
Yeah, I'll miss the boredom
Sim, vou sentir falta do tédio
And the freedom and the time spent alone
E da liberdade e do tempo só pra mim
But there is really nothing, nothing we can do
Mas não há nada, nada mesmo, nada que a gente possa fazer
Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew
A gente deve esquecer o amor, a gente sempre pode começar a vida de novo
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
As modelos de passarela terão filhos, nós vamos nos divorciar
We'll find some more models, everything must run its course
A gente vai encontrar outras modelos, tudo precisa seguir o seu curso
We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
A gente vai engasgar no próprio vómito e esse será o nosso fim
We were fated to pretend
Nós estamos fadados a fingir
To pretend
A fingir
We're fated to pretend
Nós estamos fadados a fingir
To pretend
A fingir
I said yeah, yeah, yeah
Eu disse, sim, sim, sim
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sim, sim, sim
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sim, sim, sim
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sim, sim, sim
I'm feelin' rough, I'm feelin' raw
Me siento duro, me siento crudo
I'm in the prime of my life
Estoy en el mejor momento de mi vida
Let's make some music, make some money
Hagamos algo de música, ganemos algo de dinero
Find some models for wives
Encuentra algunos modelos para esposas
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars
Me mudaré a París, me inyectaré heroína y follaré con las estrellas
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars
Tu hombre, la isla y la cocaína y los autos elegantes
This is our decision to live fast and die young
Esta es nuestra decisión de vivir rápido y morir jóvenes
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun
Tenemos la visión, ahora divirtámonos
Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Sí, es abrumador, pero ¿qué más podemos hacer?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?
¿Conseguir trabajo en oficinas y despertarse para el viaje diario al trabajo?
Forget about our mothers and our friends
Olvídate de nuestras madres y nuestros amigos
We're fated to pretend
Estamos destinados a fingir
To pretend
Fingir
We're fated to pretend
Estamos destinados a fingir
To pretend
Fingir
I'll miss the playgrounds
Extrañaré los patios de recreo
And the animals and digging up worms
Y los animales y desenterrando gusanos
I'll miss the comfort of my mother
Extrañaré el consuelo de mi madre
And the weight of the world
Y el peso del mundo
I'll miss my sister, miss my father
Extrañaré a mi hermana, extrañaré a mi padre
Miss my dog and my home
Extraño a mi perro y a mi casa
Yeah, I'll miss the boredom
Sí, extrañaré el aburrimiento
And the freedom and the time spent alone
Y la libertad y el tiempo a solas
But there is really nothing, nothing we can do
Pero realmente no hay nada, nada que podamos hacer
Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew
El amor debe ser olvidado, la vida siempre puede comenzar de nuevo
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
Las modelos tendrán hijos, nos divorciaremos
We'll find some more models, everything must run its course
Encontraremos algunos modelos más, todo debe seguir su curso
We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
Nos ahogaremos con nuestro vómito y ese será el final
We were fated to pretend
Que estábamos destinados a fingir
To pretend
Fingir
We're fated to pretend
Estamos destinados a fingir
To pretend
Fingir
I said yeah, yeah, yeah
Dije sí, sí, sí
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sí, sí, sí
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sí, sí, sí
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sí, sí, sí
I'm feelin' rough, I'm feelin' raw
J'me sens dur, j'me sens cru
I'm in the prime of my life
J'me sens dans la fleur de l'âge
Let's make some music, make some money
Faisons d'la musique, gagnons du fric
Find some models for wives
Trouvons-nous quelques mannequins comme femmes
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars
Je déménagerai à Paris, shooter un peu d'héro et baiser les vedettes
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars
Occupe-toi de l'île, de la coke et des bagnoles élégantes
This is our decision to live fast and die young
C'est notre décision de vivre vite et mourir jeunes
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun
On a la vision, donc allons nous amuser
Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Ouais, c'est accablant, mais que pouvons-nous faire d'autre?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?
Se trouver des boulots dans un bureau et se lever le matin pour s'y rendre?
Forget about our mothers and our friends
Oublions nos mères et nos amis
We're fated to pretend
C'est notre destin de faire semblant
To pretend
De faire semblant
We're fated to pretend
C'est notre destin de faire semblant
To pretend
De faire semblant
I'll miss the playgrounds
Les terrains de jeu me manqueront
And the animals and digging up worms
Et les animaux, et de déterrer les vers de terre
I'll miss the comfort of my mother
Et le confort de ma mère me manquera aussi
And the weight of the world
Et le poids du monde
I'll miss my sister, miss my father
Ma sœur me manquera, mon père me manquera
Miss my dog and my home
Mon chien et ma maison me manqueront
Yeah, I'll miss the boredom
Ouais, l'ennui me manquera
And the freedom and the time spent alone
Et la liberté et le temps passé seul
But there is really nothing, nothing we can do
Mais il y a vraiment rien, rien qu'on puisse faire
Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew
L'amour doit être oublié, l'amour peut toujours être recommencé à zéro
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
Les mannequins auront des enfants, on aura le divorce
We'll find some more models, everything must run its course
On se trouvera d'autres mannequins, toute chose doit suivre son cors
We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
On s'étouffera sur notre vomi et ça sera la fin
We were fated to pretend
C'est notre destin de faire semblant
To pretend
De faire semblant
We're fated to pretend
C'est notre destin de faire semblant
To pretend
De faire semblant

Lass uns Musik machen, Geld verdienen

Die Models werden Kinder haben, wir werden uns scheiden lassen
We'll find some more models, everything must run its course

We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end
Wir werden an unserem Erbrochenen ersticken und das wird das Ende sein
