Paroles et traduction de la chanson «Here's to State» par Eddie Vedder

Here's to the judges of John Roberts,
Ici, sous l'égide de John Roberts

Who wear the robe of honor in a phony legal form,
Sous sa forme la plus démocrate

And justices are stranger when the partisans report,
Quand la justice préfère fermer les yeux

When the court elected a president it was the beginning of this war,
Face au conflit que provoque ces élections truquées

Here's to the land you tore out the heart of,
Voici ce qu'est le nouveau monde

John Roberts find yourself another country to be part of
Un visage Double

Here's to the government of Dick Cheney,
Ici, sous l'administration de Dick Cheney

With criminals posing as advisers to the crown,
Ce Prétendant à la cour

And they hope that no one sees the sites or that no one hears the sounds,
Dans notre indifférence la plus totale

Cause the speeches of our president are the remains of a clown
Face à ce drame sous nos yeux

Here's to the land you tore out the heart of,
Voici ce qu'est le nouveau monde

Dick Cheney find yourself another country to be part of
Un Visage Double

Here's to the churches of Jerry Falwell,
Ici, sous la protection du Christ

Oh the cross once made of silver now is turned to rust,
De Fer et de Rouille

And the Sunday morning services preach in fear of men in love,
Prêchant l'amour, le partage et la prière

And God only knows in heaven they must trust
Seul le Seigneur sait s'il croit encore

Here's to the land you tore out the heart of,
Voici ce qu'est le nouveau monde

Jerry Falwell find yourself another country to be part of
Un Visage Double

Here's to the laws of Alberto Gonzalez,
Ici face à votre probité

Congress will pass an act in the panic of the day,
Vous votez inéquitablement les lois

And the Constitution's drowning in an ocean of decay,
Sans respect pour ses accusés

And freedom of speech is dangerous I've even heard them say,
Exprimant la peur de toute société

Here's to the land you tore out the heart of,
Voici ce qu'est le monde

Gonzalez find yourself another country to be part of
Un Visage Double

Here's to the businessmen of George W,
Ici, face aux Business

Who'll want to change the focus from Halliburton to Enron
Nous centralisons

And their profits like blood money spilled out on the white house lawn,
Transfusons notre économie via les actions de la maison blanche

To keep their hold on power they're using terror as a con,
Manipulant scrupuleusement les informations

While the bombs they fall on children don't know which side... don't care which side that they're on
Tandis que l'on décharge des bombes sur des enfants

Here's to the land you tore out the heart of,
Voici ce qu'est devenu le monde

George W find yourself another country to be part of
Une double expression

Here's to the land you've torn out the heart of,
Voici ce qu'est le monde

George W find yourself another country to be part of
Un message d'espoir et de honte
