Y a une fille qu'habite chez moi [English translation]

Several clues have set me thinking

I’m keeping my eye peeled

I must investigate to be clear in my mind about it

It bothers me

There’s no mistaking the signs

The sheets, quilt and pillowcase

Are no longer unmatched

Next to my gear dumped in a heap

There are clothes ironed and folded

There’s no mistaking the signs

I think there’s a girl in my flat!

Two toothbrushes in the bathroom

Soap without soap and the hairdryer

That’s certainly not mine

Strange little balls

To perfume the bathtub

It’s a nightmare

Someone’s slaughtered my friends the cockroaches!

In the kitchen there’s bags

Of verbena and camomile tea

A message on my answering machine

From a mother that isn’t mine

She’s setting about my family now!

There’s no mistaking the signs

Someone’s traitorously done the dishes

What about my routine? My quarterly cleaning?

I open the fridge. The pits! Sheer madness!

It’s full of veg’!

There’s even fruits!

There’s no mistaking the signs

I think there’s a girl in my flat!
