Translation of the song lyrics Il Ne Rentre Pas Ce Soir - Eddy Mitchell

Il Ne Rentre Pas Ce Soir (original)

Il crase sa cigarette puis repousse le cendrier
Se dirige vers les toilettes, la dmarche mal assure.
Il revient rgler ses bires, le sandwich et son caf.
Il ne rentre pas ce soir.
Le grand chef du personnel l’a convoqu midi.
«J'ai une mauvaise nouvelle, vous finissez vendredi.
Une multinationale s’est offert notre socit.
Vous tes dpass
Et, du fait, vous tes remerci."
Il n’y a plus d’espoir, plus d’espoir, il ne rentre pas ce soir.
Il s’en va de bar en bar.
Il n’y a plus d’espoir, plus d’espoir, il ne rentre pas ce soir.
Il se dcide traner car il a peur d’annoncer
A sa femme et son banquier, la sinistre vrit.
tre chmeur son ge, c’est pire qu’un mari tromp.
Il ne rentre pas ce soir.
Fini le golf et le bridge, les vacances Saint-Tropez
L’ducation des enfants dans la grande cole prive.
I1 pleure sur lui, se prend pour un travailleur immigr.
Il se sent dpass
Et, du fait, il est remerci.
Il n’a plus d’espoir, plus d’espoir, il ne rentre pas ce soir.
Il s’en va de bar en bar.
Il n’a plus d’espoir, plus d’espoir, il ne rentre pas ce soir.
Il s’en va de bar en bar.
Il n’a plus d’espoir, plus d’espoir, il ne rentre pas ce soir.

Il Ne Rentre Pas Ce Soir (translation)

He stumps out his cigarette then pushes the ashtray away
Heads for the toilet, gait unsteady.
He comes back to pay for his beers, the sandwich and his coffee.
He's not coming home tonight.
The Grand Chief of Staff summoned him at noon.
“I have bad news, you finish on Friday.
A multinational bought our company.
You are overwhelmed
And, by the way, you are thanked."
There's no more hope, no more hope, he's not coming home tonight.
He goes from bar to bar.
There's no more hope, no more hope, he's not coming home tonight.
He decides to hang around because he's afraid to announce
To his wife and his banker, the grim truth.
being unemployed at your age is worse than a cheated husband.
He's not coming home tonight.
No more golf and bridge, Saint-Tropez holidays
The education of children in the large private school.
He cries over him, thinks he's an immigrant worker.
He feels overwhelmed
And, as a result, he is thanked.
He's out of hope, out of hope, he's not coming home tonight.
He goes from bar to bar.
He's out of hope, out of hope, he's not coming home tonight.
He goes from bar to bar.
He's out of hope, out of hope, he's not coming home tonight.
