On était des enfants sauvages
We were wild kids
Les poches trouées
Holed pockets
Des gueules d'écorchés
Skinned mouths
A se briser les dents de rage
Breaking your teeth with rage
Et user tout le béton du quartier
And wear out all the concrete in the neighborhood
On n'avait pas besoin d'être sage
We didn't need to be wise
Quelques vannes en signe d'amitié
A few valves as a sign of friendship
A se foutre en l'air sur les plages
To fuck up on the beaches
Et strasbourg comme on l'imaginait
And strasbourg as we imagined
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On s'est promis de rester des sales gosses
We promised to stay dirty kids
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On porte en nous, nos fractures et nos bosses
We carry in us, our fractures and our bumps
On était des enfants sans âge
We were ageless kids
On en a pris dans la gueule des crochets
We took some in the mouth of the hooks
Comme les oiseaux s'tirent de leur cage
As the birds pull themselves out of their cages
Pour devenir enfin ceux qu'on était
To finally become the ones we were
On était parfait pour se taire
We were perfect to keep quiet
On avait pas appris à faire semblant
We hadn't learned to pretend
On rêvait tous de passer la frontière
We all dreamed of crossing the border
A strasbourg évidemment
A strasbourg of course
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On s'est promis de rester des sales gosses
We promised to stay dirty kids
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On porte en nous, nos fractures et nos bosses
We carry in us, our fractures and our bumps
Comme dans les chansons de renaud
As in the songs of Renaud
Si on sautait dans les flaques
Why don't we jump into the puddles?
Si on jouait dans les cul-de-sac
Why don't we play in the cul-de-sac?
Juste pour se faire marrer
Just to make fun
Quelques pote, une vieille sono
A few buddies, an old sound car
Et on s'invite au voyage
And we invite themselves to the journey
A strasbourg ou dans le monde entier
In Strasbourg or around the world
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On s'est promis de rester des sales gosses
We promised to stay dirty kids
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On porte en nous, nos fractures et nos bosses
We carry in us, our fractures and our bumps
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On s'est promis de rester des sales gosses
We promised to stay dirty kids
Et même si on a grandi
And even though we've grown
On porte en nous, nos fractures et nos bosses
We carry in us, our fractures and our bumps
