On nous ment [English translation]
On nous ment [English translation]
With a torch in hand
He tries to find his way
Did you see him
With a torch in hand
He tries to find his way
Did you see him
Did you see him
They always tell us lies
They always tell us lies
They tell us lies
In the fair coats
In the coats
Velvet coats
They tell us lies
They tell us lies
They tell us lies
They tell us lies
Then he spends time reading comics
Three o'clock at night tv is on
And the upstairs neighbour
Torch in hand
He tries to find his way
Did you see him
Did you see him
They lie about this
They lie about that
Then you tend to anything
Everything tends to that
Everything overturned
A stain on the tablecloth
That's how life is
They always tell us lies
They always tell us lies
They tell us al...
They tell us al...
They lie and mislay
They Monte-Christo
They Montessori
They lie about all that
With a torch in hand
He tries to find his way
Did you see him
Did you see him
In the red-light streets
And the lace hems
And the small booklets
They lie to us
They lie about this
They lie about that
Not at all what you may read
Not what you think
They lie in the morning
They lie in the evening
They sell us
They sell us hope
In the immensity of the big city
I had chosen falsehood
In the immensity of the big city
