Un copain
A buddy
C'est sympa quand ça s'appelle julie
It's nice when it's called julie
Quand c'est tout blond
When it's all blond
Quand ça met des talons
When it puts heels on
Et que ça dort parfois dans mon lit
And that it sometimes sleeps in my bed
Un copain
A buddy
C'est sympa quand c'est une fille jolie
It's nice when she's a pretty girl
Quand ça se déshabille
When it undresses
Et quand ça rougit pour un petit rien
And when it blushes for a little nothing
Quand ça fait tout pour qu'on soit bien
When it's all right to make us feel good
Un copain
A buddy
Qui ressemble en tout à sa maman
Who looks like her mom in everything
Un copain
A buddy
Qui fait l'amour comme dorothée lamour
Who makes love as a love lamoy
Et qui attend depuis longtemps
And who has been waiting a long time
Le cheval blanc du prince charmant
Prince Charming's white horse
Un copain
A buddy
Sur qui ça retourne les copains
Who it's about, the buddies
Et de qui l'on rêve
And who you dream of
Comme on rêve d'une star
As one dreams of a star
Avant de glisser dans le noir
Before slipping into the dark
Le soir, le soir
In the evening, in the evening
Un copain
A buddy
Que j'appelle quelques fois trés tard
Which I call a few times very late
Un copain
A buddy
Qui sait me dire des mots qui me font rire
Who knows how to say words to me that make me laugh
Et emporte au petit matin
And take it away in the early morning
Mes chagrins, mon cafard
My sorrows, my cockroach
Un copain
A buddy
Qui ressemble à l'ami de toujours
Who looks like the friend of always
Qui ne tient pas deux places
Who doesn't hold two seats
Mais qui remplace un amour
But that replaces a love
Un copain
A buddy
C'est sympa quand ça s'appelle julie
It's nice when it's called julie
Un copain
A buddy
Un copain
A buddy
C'est sympa quand c'est une fille jolie
It's nice when she's a pretty girl
Un copain
A buddy
