Mimoun, fils de harki(original) |
| Mimoun, il fait des trous dans des cartons |
| Tous les matins il va pointer |
| Dans l’usine o a sent pas bon |
| O tout le monde fait que d’tousser |
| Il sait pas trs bien d’o il vient |
| Tout ce qu’il sait c’est qu’il est pas franais |
| Il aurait bien aim pourtant |
| Mais les gens font que d’l’viter |
| Alors il reste plant l Raconte des trucs la fraiseuse |
| Qui lui dit «mon gars t’arrte pas» |
| Mimoun il a bientt 40 ans |
| Mais il est toujours chez sa mre |
| C’est parce qu’elle est un peu malade |
| Depuis qu’elle a perdu son pre |
| Et comme c’tait lui le plus grand des fils |
| Il est parti bosser |
| A l’cole, il s’dbrouillait bien |
| L’aurait bien voulu continuer |
| Comme si la vie s’tait pose sur lui |
| En lui disant «toi tu bouges pas |
| Les trucs jolis c’est pas pour toi» |
| Mimoun il imagine qu’il est dj mort |
| C’est sa faon de s’vader |
| Et comme il y croit plus trs fort |
| Il dit qu’un jour il va s’tailler les veines |
| Plutt que de s’en aller |
| Pour tre ailleurs un tranger |
| Qui fait peur la mnagre |
| Et qui occupe les policiers |
| Alors il reste plant l Raconte des trucs la fraiseuse |
| Qui lui dit «mon gars t’arrte pas» |
| Comme si la vie s’tait pose sur lui |
| En lui disant «toi tu bouges pas |
| Les trucs jolis c’est pas pour toi» |
| (translation) |
| Mimoun, he makes holes in boxes |
| Every morning he will clock in |
| In the factory where it smells bad |
| Oh everybody just cough |
| He doesn't quite know where he comes from |
| All he knows is he's not French |
| He would have liked though |
| But people just avoid it |
| So he stays planted Tells stuff the milling machine |
| Who says to him "my guy don't stop" |
| Mimoun is almost 40 years old |
| But he's still at his mother's |
| It's because she's a little sick |
| Since she lost her father |
| And as he was the greatest of sons |
| He went to work |
| At school, he was doing well |
| Would have liked to continue |
| As if life had landed on him |
| Saying "you don't move |
| Pretty things aren't for you |
| Mimoun he imagines that he is already dead |
| It's his way of getting away |
| And as he believes in it more strongly |
| He says one day he's gonna cut his wrists |
| Rather than leaving |
| To be a stranger elsewhere |
| Who scares the housewife |
| And who keeps the cops busy |
| So he stays planted Tells stuff the milling machine |
| Who says to him "my guy don't stop" |
| As if life had landed on him |
| Saying "you don't move |
| Pretty things aren't for you |
