C'est toujours les mêmes gars qui portent le fluo
It's always the same guys who wear the fluo
C'est toujours d'abord moi qui plante le couteau
It's always me first who sticks the knife
De la Maserati, je n'ai acheté que les phares
Of the Maserati, I only bought the headlights
De l'histoire d'Amérique, je n'ai retenu que les tares
From the history of America, I have retained only the flaws
De sa déclaration, je n'ai tiré que des larmes
From his declaration, I only drew tears
De la congrégation se dégagent seulement des flammes
From the congregation emerge only flames
Soixante années après toi
Sixty years after you
Nul ne s'y reconnaîtra
No one will recognize it
Est-ce donc un peu que pour ça
Is it a bit only for that
Que tu t'éloignes de toi
That you walk away from yourself
Quel est l'étranger, derrière les barreaux
Who is the stranger, behind bars
Jugé comme un voleur d'eau?
Judged as a water thief?
Quel est l'étranger, derrière les barreaux
Who is the stranger, behind bars
Jugé comme un voleur d'eau?

C'est encore mes parents qui appellent au secours
It's still my parents calling for help
C'est seule dans la forêt que j'ai compris l'amour
It was alone in the forest that I understood love
De la Maserati, je n'ai acheté que les phares
Of the Maserati, I only bought the headlights
De l'histoire d'Amérique, je n'ai retenu que les tares
From the history of America, I have retained only the flaws
De sa déclaration, je n'ai goûté que des larmes

De la congrégation se dégagent seulement des flammes
From the congregation emerge only flames
Six-dix années après toi
Six-ten years after you
Nul ne s'y reconnaîtra

Est-ce donc un peu que pour ça
