Jalousie Lyrics in English Angèle

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Jalousie by Angèle from French to English.

Jealousy, jealousy

A touch of paranoia

Over almost nothing

But why get mixed up between him and me?

That's, that's kinda out of line

And frustrating, 'cause jealousy

Your name's way too pretty

But who's that girl in the picture?

Jealousy tells me she's beautiful, she's beautiful

She wants you, I think, it's obvious

Jealousy tells me she's there, she's there

Let's crush the first sparks

Jealousy, it's no joke

You make us sick

When doubt rolls across our shoulders

Camps in our heads

And takes a role, that's where you act

But who's that girl in the picture?

Jealousy tells me she's beautiful, she's beautiful

She wants you, I think, it's obvious

Jealousy tells me she's there, she's there

Jealousy, jealousy

But who's that girl in the picture?

Jealousy tells me she's beautiful, she's beautiful

She wants you, I think, it's obvious

Jealousy tells me she's there

But who's that girl in your messages?

Jealousy tells me she's alone

That it's only me, I'm scared you'll love her

Jealousy tells me she's there, she's there

SONG MEANING

Angèle turns jealousy into an actual character in this playful yet revealing track. “Jalousie” lets us eavesdrop on the singer’s inner dialogue, where the tiny green-eyed monster whispers: Who’s that girl in the photo? What does she want from him? Suddenly, a harmless picture or text message feels like proof of betrayal. The song shows how quickly doubts can snowball, mixing a pinch of paranoia with real fear of losing someone you love.

Behind its catchy beat, the song is a warning: if you feed jealousy, it can make two perfectly happy people feel sick. Angèle urges us to stomp out those “first sparks” of suspicion before they become a blaze. By naming jealousy aloud and teasing it, she reminds listeners that these worries often live more in our heads than in reality – and that calling them out can be the first step to keeping love healthy and fun.
