Fonceder [English translation]

On the long run, that’ll hurt me,

But for now it makes me feel better.

I swallow the Devil’s pee

And I get lost in a joint. (X2)

A phone call wakes me up:

A junkie’s1veins are getting itchy.

Nocturnal tour, (fuck)girl-and-Whiskey-bottle-plan the night before. I call Dav'.

Suddenly, I get a smack in the face;

My mom tells me to stop loafing about and find a job.

So, I’m heading for the neighborhood,

Running after some bucks.

It’s getting black2in the streets while waiting for rap to make money.

My days all look alike: always the same hassle.

Since there is nothing to do, I’m going to pay a visit to the pusher.

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

On the long run, that’ll hurt me,

But for now it makes me feel better.

I swallow the Devil’s pee

And I get lost in a joint. (X2)

 

I just got my BAC,3

Got my mother on my back

Because rap does not bring in enough money to pay for rent and I won't go to the FAC.4

My current girlfriend breaks up with me

While my mother’s eyes are staring at me.

I feel bad, I slam the building’s entrance door.

I smoke cigarettes, Mary Jane:

They’re going to be puffed!

I’m soaring, feet on the ground:

I’m feeling attracted5

Two, three homeboys turn up with some vodka, some whisky:

I’m going to get wasted.

Give me some, D,6for me to forget all my trouble.

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

On the long run, that’ll hurt me,

But for now it makes me feel better.

I swallow the Devil’s pee

And I get lost in a joint. (X2)

I think I’m drunk.

Hey guys, I can’t stand on my feet anymore.

I need to get back to my shack, I’m going to have to pay.

I want to drink but there’s no more bottle.

Pass me, give me the joint.

There’re people on the clothes’ line.

I think I’m going mad: my Negroes7 are all yelling like monkeys.

I’m high, high, high, high.

I feel possessed; it hurts.

Guys, I’m wasted: I’m high.

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

On the long run, that’ll hurt me,

But for now it makes me feel better.

I swallow the Devil’s pee

And I get lost in a joint. (X2)

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)

I’m going to get wasted. (X2)
