C'était sur l'autoroute un départ en vacances
It was on the highway a departure on vacation
Tu roulais mal vite on a eu de la chance
You were driving badly fast, we were lucky
Tu zig-zaguais en collant les pare-chocs
You were zig-zagging sticking the bumpers
Y avait pas de poulet alors tu faisais le coq
There was no chicken so you played the rooster
T'as beau jouer les durs mais y a pas d'quoi être fière
You may play tough but there's nothing to be proud of
Parce que dans ma voiture y avait des enfants derrière
Because in my car there were children behind
Ta vie je m'en fous tu sais c'est pas mon problème
I don't care about your life, you know it's not my problem
Mais un casse-cou, un vrai, ne risque que la sienne
But a daredevil, a real one, only risks his own
Cherchons un synonyme à dangereux salopard
Let's find a synonym for dangerous bastard
J'en ai un qui rime, chauffard
I have one that rhymes, driver
Je pense que tu es un homme c'est masculin chauffard
I think you're a man it's masculine driver
Vaniteux en klaxon, en appels de phare
Vain in honking, in headlight calls
Tu crois qu'elle rend viril ta mauvaise conduite
You think she makes your bad behavior manly
Tu nous mets en péril pour tes problèmes de vite
You put us in danger for your speed problems
Ça fait pas de toi un dur de m'éviter de justesse
It doesn't make you hard to narrowly avoid me
Ça ne donne pas d'allure les excès de vitesse
Speeding doesn't make it look good
Je te souhaite de perdre des points et d'en prendre dans la gueule
I wish you lose points and take some in the face
Ça fera un danger de moins quand tu n'auras plus de bagnole
It will be one less danger when you no longer have a car
Cherchons un synonyme à dangereux salopard
Let's find a synonym for dangerous bastard
J'en ai un qui rime, chauffard
I have one that rhymes, driver
Et ben voilà
Well here it is
Tu sais j'ai mis du temps à t'écrire cette chanson
You know it took me a long time to write you this song
Je savais pas comment t'appeler par ton nom
I didn't know how to call you by your name
J'en ai fait des ratures, j'ai longuement corrigé
I made erasures, I corrected at length
Pour pas dire 'ordure' pour pas dire 'fumier'
Not to say 'junk' not to say 'manure'
Cherchons un synonyme à dangereux salopard
Let's find a synonym for dangerous bastard
J'en ai un qui rime, connard
I got one that rhymes, asshole
