Starmania (Musical) - La chanson de Ziggy (English translation)

English

Translation

Ziggy's song

Me, I was a mommy's boy

Every night as I fell asleep

She told me "When you grow up

You will dance as Prince Charming

In the Sleeping Beauty

In the Sleeping Beauty!"

Every Saturday afternoon

While all the neighborhood boys

Played football or hockey

I was taking ballet classes

That's why I had no friends

At fifteen, my mother gave me

As a birthday present

All of Tchaikovsky's works in a box

I ran to the record shop

The very next day, to exchange it

It's on that day that I met

The first love of my life

His name was David Bowie

His music changed my life

And I changed my name for him

I changed my name for him

(Ziggy!)

I left my mother's place

I went back to the record shop

I was hired as a salesman

But now I know what I want to be

I want to be a rock dancer

The first rock dancer in the world

I want to be a rock dancer!
