Under your hair, way too blonde
Bleached, of course
You had a birdbrain
But I liked it, but I liked it

Deep in your big blue eyes
Too much makeup, of course
You had something pretentious
That I didn't like, that I didn't like

I had messy hair
And washed-out eyes
I tumbled you into the hay

You had your fun, goodbye girl
We weren't on the same side
Goodbye kitten
Hello to your parents

You invited me to Deauville
To your second home
I was bored stiff like an idiot
In that mess, in that mess

You introduced me to your friends
Almost as dumb as soldiers
They were real Republicans
Beer drinkers, beer drinkers

The tall guy who thought he was clever
By calling me an anarchist
I don't regret punching him
Before we parted

Goodbye girl
We weren't on the same side
Goodbye kitten
Hello to your parents

And when you returned to Paris
Super proud of your tan
You didn't want to lay down your oars
On the shore, it's a metaphor

You called me a hundred times
To come see you in Neuilly
In your house near the woods
And I said "yes," and I said "yes"

I came one evening to your party
With 23 of my buddies
We trampled your Turkish delights
With our boots

Goodbye girl
We weren't on the same side
Goodbye kitten
Hello to your parents

Don't blame the rascals
They didn't get an education
In La Courneuve, there are no schools
Only prisons and concrete

Besides, they didn't break everything
They only stole the silverware
Your friend who did karate
What a beating we gave him, what a beating we gave him

I called your father a bastard
Apologize to him for me
If I had known it was true
I would have said it again

Goodbye girl
We weren't on the same side
Goodbye kitten
Hello to your parents

Now, I don't feel like talking anymore
You should have already understood
That we weren't born on the same side
Of the bourgeoisie, of the bourgeoisie

Stop crying for a minute
You see, I haven't forgotten you
I call you collect
From Nouméa, from Nouméa

I've been a soldier for three weeks
The army is a big family
Yours was less disgusting
Can't wait to be discharged

Goodbye girl
We weren't on the same side
Goodbye kitten
Hello to your parents
