Lyrics of Je fais le mort - Juniore

Je fais le mort (original)

Il aurait mieux valu
Si j’avais sû
Rester de glace
Se fondre dans le décor
J’aurais voulu
Si j’avais pu
Effacer sa trace
Et enterrer le corps
Mais dehors, il faisait si bon
Tu t’en souviens encore
Comme les jours étaient longs
Et dehors, il fait si froid
Depuis, ça fait des mois
Que je fais le mort
Et c’est bien connu
Les uns, déçus, les autres, se lassent
Se gonflent de remords
Moi j’aurais voulu
Si j’avais pu
Changer de place
Déjouer le mauvais sort
Mais dehors, il faisait si bon
Tu t’en souviens encore
Comme les jours étaient longs
Et dehors, il fait si froid
Depuis, ça fait des mois
Que je fais le mort
Il aurait mieux valu
Si j’avais eu l’audace
De battre tous les records
Moi j’aurais voulu
L’hiver venu
Que les ardeurs se tassent
S’effacent sans efforts
Mais dehors, il faisait si bon
Tu t’en souviens encore
Comme les jours étaient longs
Et dehors, il fait si froid
Depuis, ça fait des mois
Et dehors, il faisait si bon
Tu t’en souviens encore
Comme les jours étaient longs
Et dehors, il fait si froid
Depuis, ça fait des mois
Que je fais le mort
~Translation in English~
It would have been better
If I had known
To stay as motionless as ice
To blend into the surroundings
I would have liked
If I could
To weep of his spoor
And to bury his corpse
But outside, it was so good (weather)
You still remember it
How the days were long
And outside, it is so cold
Since then, it’s been months
That I’m acting like a dead one
And it is well-known that
Some are disappointed, and others are wearied
They swell with remorses
Me, I would have liked
If I could
To switch place
Out the bad luck
But outside, it was so good (weather)
You still remember it
How the days were long
And outside, it is so cold
Since then, it’s been months
That I’m acting like a dead one
It would have been better
If I had dared
To beat all the records
Me, I would have liked
When winter would have come
I would like the ardor to fall
To disappear without any efforts
But outside, it was so good (weather)
You still remember it
How the days were long
And outside, it is so cold
Since then, it’s been months
And outside, it was so good
You still remember it
How the days were long
And outside, it is so cold
Since then, it’s been months
That I’m acting like a dead one

(translation)

It would have been better
If I had known
stay frozen
Blend in
I would have liked
If I could
Erase his trail
And bury the body
But outside it was so nice
You still remember
How the days were long
And outside it's so cold
Since then, it's been months
That I'm playing dead
And it is well known
Some disappointed, others weary
swell with remorse
I would have liked
If I could
Swich place
thwart bad luck
But outside it was so nice
You still remember
How the days were long
And outside it's so cold
Since then, it's been months
That I'm playing dead
It would have been better
If I had had the audacity
To break all records
I would have liked
The winter came
Let the ardor settle
Erase effortlessly
But outside it was so nice
You still remember
How the days were long
And outside it's so cold
Since then, it's been months
And outside it was so good
You still remember
How the days were long
And outside it's so cold
Since then, it's been months
That I'm playing dead
