Ce mortel ennui
This deadly boredom
Qui me vient
Who comes to me
Quand je suis avec toi
When I am with you
Ce mortel ennui
This deadly boredom
Qui me tient
Who holds me
Et me suit pas à pas
And follows me step by step
Le jour où j'aurai assez d'estomac
The day I have enough stomach
Et de toi
And from you
Pour te laisser choir
To let you fall
Ce jour-là, oui ce jour là, je crois
That day, yes that day, I believe
Oui je crois
Yes I think
Que je pourrai voir
That I can see
Ce mortel ennui
This deadly boredom
Se tailler
Carving
À l'anglaise loin de moi
English far from me
Bien sûr il n'est rien besoin de dire
Of course there's no need to say anything
À l'horizontale
Horizontally
Mais on ne trouve plus rien à se dire
But we can't find anything left to say to each other
À la verticale
Vertically
Alors pour tuer le temps
So to kill time
Entre l'amour et l'amour
Between love and love
J'prends l'journal et mon stylo
I take the newspaper and my pen
Et je remplis et les A et les O
And I fill out the A's and the O's
Il faudra bien que j'me décide un jour
I'll have to decide one day
Mon amour
My love
À me faire la malle
To pack up
Mais j'ai peur qu'tu n'ailles dans la salle de bain
But I'm afraid you won't go into the bathroom
Tendre la main
Give a hand
Vers le Gardénal
Towards the Gardenal
Comme j'veux pas d'ennui
As I don't want any trouble
Avec ma conscience
With my conscience
Et ton père
And your father
Je m'laisse faire!
I'll let it happen!
