Lyrics

Tu n’vas jamais aux collections
Tu préfères mettre tes sous à plat
Pour t’acheter une belle maison
Drapée par les dior du gothique
Mais comme on va pas cul tout nu Et puis qu’d’abord moi j’n’voudrais pas
Tu t’sapes chez l’couturier d’ton cru
Qu’a des harnais démocratiques
Ca t’va
Cette robe de dix sacs
Tes cheveux en vrac
Ce rien qui t’habille
Ca t’va
Tes souliers pointus
Même s’ils sont fichus
Ca t’flatte tes gambilles
Ca t’va
Ce sac en lézard
Qui fait le lézard
Sous ses airs plastiques
Ca t’va
Cet air sans facon
Dont t’as pris mon nom
Pour vivre de musique
Tu n’vas jamais chez rubinstein
Qu’a d’la frimousse en comprimé
Qui pour deux plombes vous met en scène
La gueule des dames pour la parade
Et quand tu sors chez les snobards
Et que j’te demande si t’es parée
Tu m’dis avec ton air anar:
«moi j’ai l’soleil sur la facade»
Ca t’va
Cette gueule de dix ronds
Malgré c’que diront
Les cons d’photographes
Ca t’va
Ce dos qui descend
Sous l’oeil indécent
Des gars qui te gaffent
Ca t’va
Tes carreaux mouillés
Quand ils ont regardé
La joie qui s’défoule
Ca t’va
Tes mains toutes comme ca Par ce je n’sais quoi
Qui fait les mères poules
Tu n’vas jamais aux collections
Tu préfères coudre un peu d’bonheur
Dans notre carrée et faire ton rond
Loin des ballots et d’leur système
T’es là jusqu'à la fin des temps
A m'écrire le courrier du coeur
Tu m’lâches s tout juste pour que j’aie l’temps
De faire une chanson et dire que j’t’aime
Ca m’va
Ta prison dorée
Ta bouche adorée
En guise de serrure
Ca m’va
Tes plats mijotés
Tellement qu’on dirait
Manger d’la luxure
Ca m’va
Ton air bienheureux
Qu’ont les amoureux
Qui restent fidèles
Ca m’va
Qu’on puisse dire un jour
«et quant à l’amour
Il n’a aimé qu’elle…»

Lyrics translation

You never go to collections
You'd rather put your money flat
To buy you a nice house
Draped by the dior of Gothic
But as we will not ass all naked and then first I would not want to
You're under the influence of the couturier of your time.
What has Democratic harnesses
It's all right with you.
This dress of ten bags
Your hair loose
That nothing that dresses you
It's all right with you.
Your pointy shoes
Even if they're screwed
It flatters your legs
It's all right with you.
This lizard bag
Who makes the lizard
Under its plastic airs
It's all right with you.
This air without facon
From which you took my name
To live music
You never go to rubinstein's.
What does frimousse have in tablets
Who for two leads puts you on stage
The ladies ' mouth for the parade
And when you go out to the snobbards
And I'm asking if you're dressed
You say to me with your air anar:
"I have the sun on the facade»
It's all right with you.
This mouth of ten rounds
Despite what they will say
The stupid photographers
It's all right with you.
That back that goes down
Under the indecent eye
Guys looking out for you
It's all right with you.
Your wet tiles
When they looked
The joy that flows
It's all right with you.
Your hands all like that by what I don't know what
Who makes mothers hens
You never go to collections
You'd rather sew a little happiness
In our Square and make your round
Away from bales and their system
You're here till the end of time
To write me the Mail of the heart
You're letting go of me just so I have time
To make a song and say I love you
I'm fine with it.
Your golden prison
Your mouth adored
As a lock
I'm fine with it.
Your simmered dishes
So much like
Eating lust
I'm fine with it.
Your blessed air
What do lovers have
Who remain faithful
I'm fine with it.
May we say one day
"and as for love
He liked only her…»
