Je ne veux plus laver la vaisselle [English translation]

I don't want to clean the dishes anymore

I don't want to empty the bins anymore

To sort out the hotel's dirty linen

Burn my hands in bleach

Because I have a lover

Lover, Goddammit!

He's six feet tall

It's impressive, holy god!

All the world tells me that he's a rascal

But as I am a worthless girl

It bothers them that we love each other

But me, I love him, my good-for-nothing

I don't want to clean the dishes anymore

I don't want to empty the bins anymore

To sort out the hotel's dirty linen

Burn my hands in bleach

Because I have a lover

Lover, Goddammit!

He has something in the depths of his eyes

A funny thing that's quite serious

I have the feeling I'm climbing to the heavens

And I'm meeting the Good Lord

Then I speak to him about my lover

And he promises me we'll be happy

I don't want to clean the dishes anymore

I don't want to empty the bins anymore

To sort out the hotel's dirty linen

Burn my hands in bleach

Because I have a lover

Lover, Goddammit!

I don't want to clean out the cooking pots anymore

To serve at the table, carry the coal

What's the point of being a slob?

There's no point, dammit!

And then he has two brown eyes

And then I don't care

He's my demon

I don't want to clean the dishes anymore

I don't want to empty the bins anymore

I want to be called Miss

I'll cover myself with lace

For my lover

Lover, Goddammit!
