Lyrics
Les mauvais coups, les lachetes, quelle importance
laisse-moi te dire, laisse-moi te dire et te redire ce que tu sais
ce qui detruit le monde c’est l’indifference
l’indifference
elle a rompu et corrompu meme l’enfance
un homme marche, un homme marche, tombe et creve dans la rue
— sur le seuil de sa maison, notre pere l’attend —
eh bien personne ne l’a vu
l’indifference, l’indifference
l’indifference, elle te tue a petits coups
l’indifference, tu es l’agneau, elle est le loup
l’indifference, un peu de haine, un peu d’amour, mais quelque chose
l’indifference, chez toi tu n’es qu’un inconnu
l’indifference, tes enfants ne te parlent plus
l’indifference, tes vieux n’ecoutent meme plus quand tu leur causes
vous vous aimez et vous avez un qui danse
mais elle guette, elle vous guette et joue au chat, a la souris
mon jour viendra qu’elle se dit
l’indifference, l’indifference
l’indifference, elle te tue a petits coups
l’indifference, tu es l’agneau, elle est le loup
l’indifference, un peu de haine, un peu d’amour mais quelque chose
l’indifference, tu es cocu et tu t’en fous
l’indifference, elle fait ses petits dans la boue
l’indifference, y’a plus de haine, y’a plus d’amour, y’a plus grand chose
l’indifference, avant qu’on en soit tous creves
l’indifference, je voudrais la voir crucifiee
l’indifference, qu’elle se revele ecartelee
l’indifference
(Merci à Severine Horn pour cettes paroles)
Lyrics translation
The bad shots, the lachetes, what does it matter
let me tell you, let me tell you and tell you again what you know
what destroys the world is indifference
indifference
she broke up and corrupted even childhood
a man walks, a man walks, falls and creeps in the street
- on the threshold of his house, our father is waiting for him —
well no one has seen it
indifference, indifference
indifference, it kills you with small strokes
indifference, you are the lamb, she is the Wolf
indifference, a little hatred, a little love, but something
indifference, at home you are just a stranger
indifference, your children no longer speak to you
indifference, your old people don't even listen when you cause them
you love each other and you have one that dances
but she's watching, she's watching you and playing cat, mouse
my day will come that she says to herself
indifference, indifference
indifference, it kills you with small strokes
indifference, you are the lamb, she is the Wolf
indifference, a little hate, a little love but something
indifference, you're cuckold and you don't care
indifference, she makes her cubs in the mud
indifference, there's more hatred, there's more love, there's more
indifference, before we all die of it
indifference, I would like to see her crucified
indifference, that it turns out to be sidelined
indifference
