Barman Lyrics in English Soprano

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Barman by Soprano from French to English.
Like every morning before going to the construction site
He comes to talk to me about all his home issues
He tells me his kids drive him totally nuts
That his wife is cheating on him with the neighbor across the hall
And that guy over there just keeps rehashing his youth
That he was handsome and rich, that he pulled all the chicks
That in his day kids had more manners
But today they'll assault you for a cigarette
At the back of the room I hear a fight break out
I run to split them up with my famous bat
I see the first guy has some cards up his sleeve
The second one misses him and socks me
They've all p*ssed me off
They've all p*ssed me off
Yeah, they've all p*ssed me off
They've all p*ssed me off
Like every lunch break, coming out of his little office
He loosens his tie and talks to me about his job
He calls his boss every insult in the book
He'd love to bang his secretary Véro
And then there's this cougar with a killer cleavage
Leopard skirt, horror-movie makeup
She tells me about her sexual frolics without shame
With that young buck who's been legal for 24 hours
And then suddenly a man gets up on the table
With his weird accent he calls us monkeys
He says that back in the day he was amazing
Then he falls in my arms crying that he's pathetic
They've all p*ssed me off
They've all p*ssed me off
Yeah, they've all p*ssed me off
They've all p*ssed me off
And me, my own problems
Who cares, cares, cares, cares?
Yeah and me, my moods and my torments
Nobody here wants to hear them
Makes sense, I'm just the barman
Fed up
They've all p*ssed me off
Yeah, they've all p*ssed me off
They've all p*ssed me off
They've all p*ssed me off
Jeffrey
give me some more ice

SONG MEANING

Pull up a stool and meet the most under-appreciated therapist around — the local bartender! In “Barman,” Soprano slips behind the counter and lets us eavesdrop on a parade of customers who pour out their mid-life crises, office grudges, and late-night confessions faster than he can pour their drinks. From the weary construction worker convinced his marriage is crumbling to the flashy cougar bragging about her newest boy-toy, every character treats the bar like a confessional booth. Meanwhile, the barman absorbs each tale, breaking up fights with his trusty bat and silently thinking, “They’ve all worn me out.”

Beneath the humor and colorful storytelling, the song spotlights the invisible weight service workers carry. While everyone leans on him for comfort, no one thinks to ask how he feels. Soprano’s playful chorus—“Ils m’ont tous soulé” (“They’ve all gotten me drunk / fed up”)—captures that mix of exhaustion and irony. The result is a catchy, conversational track that celebrates everyday drama, exposes the loneliness hiding in plain sight, and reminds us to tip not just with coins but with a little empathy. 🍻
