Cheveux en arrière
Hair pulled back
Col boutonné haut
Collar buttoned high
C'est moins pour l'allure que pour cacher l'éraflure, suis-je laid ou beau
It's less for the looks than to hide the scar, am I ugly or beautiful
Le corps rien à faire
The body not a thing
Immobile fléau
Immobile scourge
Il n'y a qu'une humeur, qu'un amour et sa douleur qui marque la peau
There is only one mood, one love and its pain that marks the skin
Depuis longtemps j'ai porté
For a long time I've carried
Le doute devant, en collier
The doubt upfront, like a necklace
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let it pass (hehey), let it pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let them through (hehey), let them through (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let them through (hehey), let them through (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let them through (hehey), let them through (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Cheveux en arrière
Hair pushed back
En mal d'idéaux
Yearning for ideals
Portons la fatigue en curieux enfant prodigue, revenu trop tôt
We carry the weariness like curious prodigal children, returned too soon
Des fils ordinaires
Ordinary threads
C'est à ma façon
It's in my own way
Si je n'veux pas être une grande fille je serai, un petit garçon
If I don't want to be a big girl, I'll be a little boy
Pour chaque insulte lancée
For every insult thrown
Il pousse un grain de beauté
He grows a beauty mark
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let them pass (hehey), let them pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies pass
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let them pass (hehey), let them pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies pass
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let them pass (hehey), let them pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies pass
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let it pass (hehey), let it pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let it pass (hehey), let it pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Laissez passer (hehey), laissez passer (hehey)
Let it pass (hehey), let it pass (hehey)
Laissez passer toutes les Half, Half-Ladies
Let all the Half, Half-Ladies through
Cheveux en arrière
Hair slicked back
Col boutonné haut
Buttoned up high
C'est moins pour l'allure que pour cacher l'éraflure, suis-je laid ou beau
It's less for the look than to hide the scar, am I ugly or beautiful
