Coup de vieux : traduction de Français vers Anglais
Eh, my generation, it has
It has forgotten all about the high school exam revisions
It wants a dealer not too far from the university
It has grown up, it doesn't care about people's looks
It wants a one-night stand that lasts two years
We used to make giant towers with Kapla, and go around the world on Encarta
It would scratch a pool to spend the month of August
It would count the pennies to buy a mammoth's testicle
Sometimes, no more gifts, separated parents
It signed up for the gym but never went
Milk always after Chocapics, It doesn't admit it, but it danced the tecktonik
Stoned, it watches The Zinzins from Space
It wrote stuff with white-out on the Eastpak
High School Musical, Hannah Montana, Karaoke of Lake Connemara
Asereje, de ja, de je, no one understood, but everyone sang
In its living room, it has construction signs
It collects them when it's drunk
I'm talking about a time that those under twenty can't know
I'm talking about a time that those under (twenty)
It was better before going back in time, first gray hairs
I've aged
It was better before going back in time, first gray hairs
I've aged
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
It was better before (oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) I've aged
Almost forty years old, I knew Zelda
I saw Regine and Jay-Jay Okocha play
Generation spleen, Booster or 103
The years go by, who will remember?
My generation, it wants to sleep, it's exhausted
Pass its exams without revising
Go bar hopping until four in the morning
Then, laugh out loud watching Mission Cleopatra
Still shocked by Happy Tree Friends
Flour on the two-meter chewing gum
It had Magix, it had Pogs
On the 3310, there was Crazy Frog
Big Baby Bop dreams of Tokyo, she drank a Yop while watching Code Lyoko
Because of Tony, it wanted to skateboard
It was Picasso when it was on Paint
Already nostalgic for the old days
It wants to prove its parents wrong
It doesn't really care about what happens after death
It debates about who was the best Pokemon
Burning the threads of its scoubidou (ma-i-a hi) in the kitchen with Adibou (ma-i-a hu)
It was better before going back in time, first gray hairs
I've aged
It was better before going back in time, first gray hairs
I've aged
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
It was better before (oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh) I've aged
Helene, Lola, Lali, Josee the years go by on the spleen podium
Pokemon, Titeuf, Beyblade, Diddl, I broke you like Brice de Nice
MSN, send me a wizz
(I'm talking about a time that those under twenty can't know
I'm talking about a time that those under twenty can't know)
I'm talking about a time that those under twenty can't know
I'm talking about a time that those under twenty can't know
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
