These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Maman connaît pas la solitude, je n'connais que trop
Mom doesn't know loneliness, I only know too much
Dire qu'il y en a des comme moi qui dorment bien au chaud
To think that there are people like me who sleep warm
Hier soir, j'ai lu 'Sans famille' dans le métro
Last night I read 'Without Family' on the metro
Je suis d'l'assistance et, croyez-moi
I'm in the audience and, believe me
C'est bien attristant
It's very sad
Le monde connaît pas
The world doesn't know
Mais par ici, je connais par cœur
But around here, I know by heart
Si j'avais le fric
If I had the money
J'prendrais un billet pour ailleurs
I would take a ticket elsewhere
J'ai un vieil Atlas, quand je l'ouvre, je pleure
I have an old Atlas, when I open it I cry
J'aimerais voir Istanbul et Bagdad et l'Afghanistan
I would like to see Istanbul and Baghdad and Afghanistan
L'amour connaît pas l'amour physique, oui
Love doesn't know physical love, yes
Sur l'bout des doigts
On your fingertips
Avec des garçons qui prenaient leur plaisir sans moi
With boys who had their fun without me
'Tristan et Iseult', j'ai lu au moins cent fois
'Tristan and Isolde', I have read at least a hundred times
Je suis si triste en y pensant, je cherche mon Tristan
I'm so sad thinking about it, I'm looking for my Tristan
