Tout vu, tout lu [English translation]

I exercise in dinners

In bars & in parties

There & here

I want to be able to shine

To be listened , to be accepted

To be the only one who's seen

I have anecdotes in stock

More or less real

More or less lived

I've told so many

True things , invented things

I no longer know

When I've well played my part

Captived the audience

When they believe me

They look at me differently

I have importance

For one time

I embellish my CV

I add a few sweetness

I will be the one you want

I am a big mouth ..

I am a liar

I was there , I've seen everything

I've read everything & I've done everything

I still choke sometimes

My lies don't fool anyone but me

Slip in the right name at the right moment

It's a whole art

It becomes a well-known name

It has gotten bigger , Gerard

I also can talk about savants

But it isn't often useful

I give people what they want

Spicy stories , people

If I was a super hero ,

I would certainly be Mythoman

Even though the tight - fitting costume

Wouldn't suit me , I think

I have millions of plans

On big confidential deals

Between two planes

Two dates fallen from the sky

" Call me "

I was there , I've seen everything

I've read everything & I've done everything

I still choke sometimes

My lies don't fool anyone but me

I want my place under the sun , a few light

Why not

My agenda is empty , if this is the life I deserve

I don't want it

Who has never cheated , even not on purpose ?

Tell me who

So he can insult me with all the names

That's how .. I'm named

I was there , I've seen everything

I've read everything & I've done everything

I was there

I've seen everything , I've read everything , I've done everything

I've done everything , I was there , I've seen everything , I've read everything , I was there .
