Coeur de rocker [English translation]

Even when I was still only a choir boy

I already had a rocker's heart

I didn't like school very much

I only lived for my yé-yé idols

I was still only a teenager

When I left to live an outsider's life

My father wanted to hold me back

All he could manage to tell me

Was "you'll make your mother die"

[Chorus]

With my rocker's heart

I never know how to say I love you

Yes but Mum, I still loved you

Like nobody ever did

Of all the girls that got to my heart

The only one I truly loved

Is the one who left me

From that I was quite bothered

It's true that I wasn't too faithful

But I was completely mad about her

I tried to hold her back

All she could manage to tell me

Was "you'll live out your life all alone"

[Chorus]

With my rocker's heart

I never know how to say I love you

Yes but baby, I still loved you

Like nobody ever did

With my rocker's heart

I never know how to say I love you

Yes but baby, I still loved you

Like I will never be able to anymore

With my rocker's heart

I never know how to say I love you

Yes but Mum, I still loved you

Like nobody ever did
