J'voulais placer le mot ruelle

J'voulais vous parler un peu d'elle

J'voulais écrire, sur un bout d'table
I wanted to write, on a piece of table
Dans un salon d'la rue des arts
In a living room in rue des Arts
Et déchirer ce bout de nappe
And tear this end of tablecloth
Sous le regard de bande appart
Under the gaze of the apartment
Et en finir, avec l'ambition

Cracher, bourré, mes convictions

Et des bouts d'art, de leur parfum
