La vie ne m'apprend rien [English translation]
La vie ne m'apprend rien [English translation]
Who dares telling me they can teach me how to feel ?
Or show me what I should do to be great ?
Who can change what I carry in my blood ?
Who has the right to forbid me to be alive?
Which side are the good or the bad people?
Their gospels have made me a non-believer
Life doesn't teach me anything
I just wanted a little chat, or to choose a train
Life doesn't teach me anything
I would really like to cling to something, choose a way, choose a way
CHORUS
But I can't, I don't know
And I'm stuck right where I stand
The laws don't make the men but some men make the laws
But I can't, I don't know
And I'm stuck right where I stand
To those believing that money makes me stupid
I will say that being poor doesn't mean being honest
Maybe they believe freedom is bought
What is left of ideals under the fire
When their preachers are sheltered from the fight ?
The lives of the dead can't be saved by medals
Life doesn't teach me anything
I just wanted a little chat, or to choose a train
Life doesn't teach me anything
I would really like to cling to something, choose a way, choose a way
