Cool papa cool [English translation]

Cool daddy cool

It’s not because your dream’s collapsing

That you have to fire into the crowd around you

Cool daddy cool

We’re not made from the same mould

You you’re a rock, me a rolling stone

We don’t get to choose

You fortune explodes

Your priests fight

Just down from you

Your daughter’s shooting up

Your son’s hitting the road

You mistress entertains

There are your heroes who jump

There are beggars who vote

There’s your wife who drinks

There are no more cathedrals

There are stars in sandals

And nobody believes them

(Chorus)

All the traitors kiss your cheek

Your hunting lodge

Is full of judges outside the law

There are bailiffs ringing the bell

There’s god on the telephone

You’ve got blood on your fingers

Time overwhelms you

Tour image burns

But don’t you worry

You have to understand

That in barely ten years

It’s perhaps to me that they’ll say

(Chorus)
