Quand je serai fatigué
When I'm tired
De sourire à ces gens qui m'écrasent
Smiling at those people who crush me
Quand je serai fatigué
When I'm tired
De leur dire toujours les mêmes phrases
To always tell them the same sentences
Quand leurs mots voleront en éclats
When their words are shattered
Quand il n'y aura plus que des murs en face de moi
When there are only walls in front of me
J'irai dormir chez la dame de haute-savoie
I'll go to sleep at the lady of high-savoy
Quand je serai fatigué
When I'm tired
D'avancer dans les brumes d'un rêve
To advance in the mists of a dream
Quand je serai fatigué
When I'm tired
D'un métier où tu marches où tu crèves
From a job where you walk where you die
Lorsque demain ne m'apportera
When tomorrow won't bring me
Que les cris inhumains d'une meute aux abois
Let the inhuman cries of a pack in the woods
J'irai dormir chez la dame de haute-savoie
I'll go to sleep at the lady of high-savoy
Y'a des étoiles qui courent
There are stars running
Dans la neige autour
In the snow around
De son chalet de bois
From his wooden cottage
Y'a des guirlandes qui pendent du toit
There are garlands hanging from the roof
Et la nuit descend
And the night goes down
Sur les sapins blancs
On the white firs
Juste quand elle frappe des doigts
Just when she hits her fingers
Juste quand elle frappe des doigts
Just when she hits her fingers
Quand j'aurai tout donné
When I've given it my all
Tout écrit, quand je n'aurai plus ma place
All written, when I no longer have my place
Au lieu de me jeter
Instead of throwing me
Sur le premier jésus-christ qui passe
On the first Jesus-christ that passes
Je prendrai ma guitare avec moi
I'll take my guitar with me
Et peut-être mon chien
And maybe my dog
S'il est encore là
If it's still there
Et j'irai dormir chez la dame de haute-savoie
And I'll go to sleep at the lady of high-savoy
Chez la dame de haute-savoie
At the high-savoy lady
