The Lyrics
Synecdoche involves replacing a specific part of something with the whole; metonymy involves replacing a word or phrase with a related one. For example, “stars and stripes” is a synecdoche for the American flag because these are part of the flag. On the other hand, “the crown” is a metonymy for the monarchy. “Beyond the Sea” is the English version of “La Mer,” by French songwriter Charles Trenet.
La merde on peut sentir dans l’air,
et l’odeur est urgent.
La merde
aussi est mordant
et terrible.
La merde
exige un bouton
employer pour qu’on
s’arrête parfum impur.
De ça on est sûr.
C’est horrible!
Croyez
que c’est piquant;
alors, il faut aller.
Croyez,
sí, que riant
n’est pas ce que vous serez.
La merde
va à percer
le nez, aussi la chair
et restera toujours.
La merde—
la désire la sentir: impossible.
et l’odeur est urgent.
La merde
aussi est mordant
et terrible.
La merde
exige un bouton
employer pour qu’on
s’arrête parfum impur.
De ça on est sûr.
C’est horrible!
Croyez
que c’est piquant;
alors, il faut aller.
Croyez,
sí, que riant
n’est pas ce que vous serez.
La merde
va à percer
le nez, aussi la chair
et restera toujours.
La merde—
la désire la sentir: impossible.
