Lyrics
Je sais plus oùtu m’as rangé
Oùtu m’as mis
Oùtu me situes
Le lit oùj'étais censérêvasser
Je n’y suis plus
De la cave au grenieer
J’ai tout retourné
Inspectédes hectares
De vie antérieure
Mon panda
La commode en ébène
J’avais un pense-bête
J’avais un pense-bête
Mais la jalousie maladive a filtré
J’ai remontéles persiennes
Remontéla filière
J’avais disparu
Je sais plus oùtu m’as rangé
Oùtu m’as mis
Oùtu me situes
Je sais plus oùtu m’as rangé
Oùtu m’as mis
Oùtu me situes
M’aurais-tu cédé
Contre un CD
M’aurais-tu prêté
D’obscurs desseins
M’aurais-tu concassé
Puis vendu àun prix exorbitant
De galerie en galerie
Je me suis guetté
J’ai poireautépour rien
Et le monde s’en fiche
Que le jour décline
J’avais un pense-bête
Une rose de PIcardie
J’avais un pense-bête
Je sais plus oùtu m’as rangé
Oùtu m’as mis
Oùtu me situes
Je sais plus oùtu m’as rangé
Oùtu m’as mis
Oùtu me situes
J’avais un pense-bête
J’avais un pense-bête
Lyrics translation
I know more where you put me
Where did you put me
Where do you put me
The bed where I was supposed to go
I'm not there anymore
From the cellar to the grenieer
I turned everything around
Inspect hectares
Previous life
My panda
The Ebony dresser
I had a bugger.
I had a bugger.
But the sick jealousy filtered
I went up the blinds.
Up the chain
I was gone.
I know more where you put me
Where did you put me
Where do you put me
I know more where you put me
Where did you put me
Where do you put me
Would you have given in to me
Against a CD
Would you have lent me
Of obscure designs
Would you have crushed me
Then sold at an exorbitant price
From gallery to Gallery
I've been lurking
I got leek for nothing
And the world doesn't care
Let the day decline
I had a bugger.
A Rose of Picardy
I had a bugger.
I know more where you put me
Where did you put me
Where do you put me
I know more where you put me
Where did you put me
Where do you put me
I had a bugger.
I had a bugger.
