On plie une jeune branche, mais pas un vieil arbre
proverbe
Normann ROCKWELL - le policier et le jeune garcon
Illustration musicale: Yusuf Cat STEVENS - Father and son
Cat Stevens a écrit à l'origine "Father and Son" dans le cadre d'un projet musical appelé Revolussia , évoquant la révolution russe , la chanson parle d'un garçon qui voudrait rejoindre la révolution contre la volonté de son père fermier conservateur . "Père et fils" evoque aussi un contexte plus large qui refléte non seulement le conflit de generation de l'époque de Stevens, mais capte également les impulsions des générations plus âgées et plus jeunes.
It's not time to make a change Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
I was once like you are now And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found Something going on
But take your time, think a lot Think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow But your dreams may not
How can I try to explain? When I do he turns away again
It's always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way And I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go
It's not time to make a change Just relax, take it slowly
You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
All the times that I've cried Keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right I'd agree But it's them they know, not me
Now there's a way And I know that I have to go away
