Translation of the song lyrics Les Caresses - Eddy Mitchell

Les Caresses (original)

Quand tu t’es cogn?
dans tous les murs.
Sans rebondir, sans rien comprendre
Si le regard des autres se fait moins dur
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Tu n’es qu’une pi?
ce rapport?
e Et plus jamais un c?
ur a prendre
Si une main se tend pour te sauver
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Mais va pas te surexposer
Pour mieux te d?
marquer
Il te faut adopter
Tact et dignit?
C?
est comme un contrat d’embauche
Faut charmer, brouiller les choses
Savoir vendre son v Et tout faire pour arriver
Tr?
s haut
Et au plus t?
t Tr?
s haut
Pour faire le beau
T’as d?
pass?
le temps de l'?ge m?
r Les nouveaux jours c’est pas des tendres
Faut que tu s?
duises vite, que t’assures
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Tu viendras manger dans sa main
Et si tu t’y prends bien
T’auras g?
te et couvert
Pour ta vie enti?
re Diplomatie, savoir-faire
Surtout le sens des affaires
A s’apprend et puis?
a sert
A voir autrement la terre
Tr?
s haut
Et au plus t?
t Tr?
s haut
Pour faire le beau (reprendre 1er couplet)
Quand tu t’es cogn?
dans tout les murs
Sans rebondir, sans rien comprendre
Si le regard des autres se fait moins dur
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre
Toutes les caresses seront bonnes?
prendre

(translation)

When did you bump?
in all the walls.
Without bouncing back, without understanding anything
If the gaze of others becomes less harsh
All caresses will be good?
to take
All caresses will be good?
to take
Are you just a pi?
this report?
e And never again a c?
ur to take
If a hand reaches out to save you
All caresses will be good?
to take
All caresses will be good?
to take
But don't overexpose yourself
For better you d?
to mark
You must adopt
Tact and dignity?
VS?
is like a contract of employment
Must charm, confuse things
Know how to sell your v And do everything to arrive

And at most t?
t Tr?
s top
To make it beautiful
Do you have to
pass?
the time of the age m?
r The new days are not tender
Do you have to
dude quickly, that you assure
All caresses will be good?
to take
All caresses will be good?
to take
You will come and eat from his hand
And if you do it right
You will have g?
you and covered
For your whole life?
re Diplomacy, know-how
Mostly business acumen
A is learned and then?
served
To see the earth differently

And at most t?

To make the beautiful (resume 1st verse)
When did you bump?
in all the walls
Without bouncing back, without understanding anything
If the gaze of others becomes less harsh
All caresses will be good?

All caresses will be good?
