C'est le réveil par téléphone
It's the wake-up call
Merci je tombe du lit
Thank you I fell out of bed
Je n'ai pas dormi de la nuit
I didn't sleep all night
Ce matin il fait très moche
This morning the weather is very bad
Dans ma tête résonnent des cloches
Bells ring in my head
Hier j'ai bu pour oublier
Yesterday I drank to forget
Que pour vivre il faut travailler
That to live you have to work
Ma brosse à dents ne rase pas
My toothbrush doesn't shave
Car le dentifrice ne mousse pas
Because the toothpaste does not foam
Le ketchup dans le café glacé
Ketchup in iced coffee
A du mal à me réveiller
Having trouble waking up
Dans la rue les marteaux-piqueurs
Jackhammers in the street
Commencent à chanter en douceur
Begin to sing softly
Je n'ai pas d'eau chaude dans mon bain
I don't have hot water in my bath
J'y fais refroidir mon grille-pain
I cool my toaster in it
C'est vraiment une journée de chien
It's really a dog's day
Trois factures rien que ce matin
Three bills just this morning
Dans la rue les marteaux-piqueurs
Jackhammers in the street
Sont bien ensemble et chantent en chœur
Are good together and sing in chorus
La fille qui est dans mon lit
The girl in my bed
S'étire, s'éveille et me sourit
Stretches, wakes up and smiles at me
Je laisse tout tomber ce matin
I'm dropping everything this morning
J'ai besoin d'un gros câlin
I need a big hug
Et en bas les marteaux-piqueurs
And down there the jackhammers
Nous accompagnent avec ardeur
Accompany us with ardor
