Mets de l'huile
Put some oil on it
Ne néglige pas ta vie
Don't neglect your life
C'est pas face ou pile
It's not heads or tails
Tu joues, tu ries, tu te sens fort
You play, you laugh, you feel strong
Ralentis
Slow down
Prends le temps d'aimer les choses simples de la vie, sans utopies
Take the time to love the simple things in life, without utopias
Je sais le temps fait speeder et on veut tous s'en évader
I know time speeds up and we all want to escape it
Le courant nous brise en un moment
The current breaks us in a moment
Faut pas te laisser faner, perdre tes jours, tes années à courir
Don't let yourself fade, lose your days, your years running
Arrête toi et respire
Stop and breathe
Pourquoi tu run, run, run, never stop?
Why do you run, run, run, never stop?
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you're aiming for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you're aiming for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
Contrecoup
Backlash
Faut tout donner pour des billets, ça rend fou
You gotta give it all for the bills, it drives you mad
Quelle montée de stress
What a surge of stress
C'en est trop
It's too much
Tu t'entêtes mais tu vas y laisser ta peau
You insist, but it's going to cost you
Là faut qu't'arrêtes
Now you need to stop
Mais à ce lundi, mardi
But come this Monday, Tuesday
Métro, boulot, dodo
Commute, work, sleep
C'est toute ta vie
It's your whole life
C'est ce même poids sur ton dos
It's the same weight on your back
Je dis "un", tu cries, "Allô, allô Maman bobo"
I say 'one', you shout, 'Hello, hello Mommy boo-boo'
Samedi, c'est cuit
Saturday, it's done
Rembobine la vidéo
Rewind the video
Toujours tu run, run, run, never stop
Always you run, run, run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you aim for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you aim for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
J'ferme les yeux et j'm'imagine
I close my eyes and I imagine myself
Sur un nuage ou sur une île
On a cloud or on an island
Y aurait ce que je veux et j's'rais tranquille
There would be what I want and I'd be at peace
Je ferais les choses tout douc'ment
I'd take things oh so slowly
La vie aurait un goût sucrée
Life would have a sweet taste
Une chanson ou deux, un ukulélé
A song or two, a ukulele
Pas de stress, je me laisserais aller, au gré du vent
No stress, I'd just go with the flow, like the wind
Pourquoi tu run, run, run, never stop?
Why do you run, run, run, never stop?
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you're aiming for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you're aiming for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
Pourquoi tu run, run, run, never stop?
Why do you run, run, run, never stop?
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you're aiming for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Et tu finiras lonely, you only, so lonely
And you'll end up lonely, you only, so lonely
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
'Cause you run, run, run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises the jackpot
Too determined, you're aiming for the jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're lonely, so loney
But you'll end up lonely, you're lonely, so lonely
