L'appareil À Sous Lyrics in English Serge Gainsbourg
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song L'appareil À Sous by Serge Gainsbourg from French to English.
Tu n'es qu'un appareil à sou-pir
You are just a sighing device
Un appareil à sou-rire
A smiling device
A ce jeu, je ne joue pas
I don't play this game
Je n'aime pas
I don't like it
Cet opéra de 4 sou-pirs
This opera of 4 sighs
Cet air que tu as de sou-rire
That air you have of smiling
Je ne pourrais qu'en sou-ffrir
I could only suffer from it
On ne gagne que des gros sou-pirs
We only win big sighs
A vouloir tant assouvir
By wanting to satisfy so much
Tout ce je ne sais quoi d'animal en soi
All that I don't know what animal in oneself
Qu'il nous fait prendre à tous nos sou-pirs
That makes us take all our sighs
Je te dis ça sans sou-rire
I tell you this without smiling
Je ne pourrais qu'en rou-gir
I could only blush from it
Au fond tu n'es pas meilleures ou pires
In the end, you are neither better nor worse
Que celles qui pour moi soupirent
Than those who sigh for me
Mais ce jeu ne m'emeut pas
But this game doesn't move me
Tu ne m'aimes pas
You don't love me
J'y perdrais l'sommeil et le sou-rire
I would lose sleep and the smile
Jusqu'à mon dernier sou-pir
Until my last sigh
Et ne pourrais qu'en mourir
And could only die from it
Et ne pourrais qu'en mourir
And could only die from it
Et ne pourrais qu'en mourir
And could only die from it
