J'entends des échos, les gens parlent trop
I hear echoes, people talk too much
Comédie sur comédie, tout ce qu'on te dit est faux
Comedy upon comedy, everything they tell you is false
Oui j'ai mes défauts, j'aime ce qui est beau
Yes, I have my flaws, I love what is beautiful
Comédie sur comédie, tout c'qu'on te dit est faux
Comedy upon comedy, all that they tell you is false
On dit que je suis sans cœur, je sais qu'tu t'méfies
They say I'm heartless, I know you doubt me
Je ne suis pas un acteur, ne te fais pas trop de films
I'm not an actor, don't make too many films in your head
T'as l'air si particulière, moi l'inconnu m'attire
You seem so special, I’m drawn to the unknown
Quand est-ce qu'on se revoit seuls?
When will we see each other alone again?
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oh la la, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oh la la, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Hey, okay
Hello señorita hey, okay
Hello señorita hey, okay
Mírame señorita hey, okay
Look at me señora hey, okay
J'entends des échos, "Meugi en fait trop"
I hear echoes, 'Meugi is trying too hard'
Jalousie sur jalousie, on veut me faire la peau
Jealousy upon jealousy, they want to take me down
Oui j'ai mon ego, j'aime pas la classe éco'
Yes, I have my ego, I don't like the economy class
Jalousie sur jalousie, on veut me faire la peau
Jealousy upon jealousy, they want to take me down
On dit qu'je suis sans cœur, je sais que tu t'méfies
They say I'm heartless, I know you’re cautious
Je n'suis pas un acteur, ne te fais pas trop de films
I'm not an actor, don't overthink the scenes
T'as l'air si particulière, moi l'inconnu m'attire
You seem so special, while the unknown draws me in
Quand est-ce qu'on s'revoit seuls?
When will we see each other alone?
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oh la la, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oh la la, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oh la la, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Oh la la, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl
Hey, okay
Hello señorita hey, okay
Hello señorita hey, okay
Mírame señorita hey, okay
Look at me señorita hey, okay
(Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl)
(Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl)
(Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl)
(Oulala, my pretty girl, pretty, pretty girl)
Hey, okay
Hello señorita hey, okay
Hello señorita hey, okay
Mírame señorita hey, okay
Look at me señorita hey, okay
