Belfast Mill

Du côté est de la ville
Au pied de la colline
Y a une grande cheminée
C'est le Belfast Mill
Mais il n'y a plus de fumée
Qui sort de la cheminée
Car la fabrique a fermé
Et ne rouvrira jamais
Et le seul bruit qu'on entend
C'est la mélodie du vent
Qui souffle sur la ville
Qui tourne sur Belfast Mill
Il n'y a plus d'enfants
Qui jouent le long des rues
Avenir désespérant
Génération perdue
Ma vie, c'était les machines
Le boucan de l'usine
Mes copains qui sont partis
Licenciés, eux aussi
J' suis pas trop vieux pour bosser
Et trop jeune pour mourir
Sans travail depuis l'été
Que vais-je devenir ?
Du côté est de la ville
Au pied de la colline
Y a une grande cheminée
C'est le Belfast Mill
Mais il n'y a plus de fumée
Qui sort de la cheminée
Car la fabrique a fermé
Et ne rouvrira jamais
Qui souffle sur la ville
Qui tourne sur Belfast Mill
