| Le pétrole infestait la mer,
| Oil plagued the sea,
|
| Les vagues claquaient sur les rochers
| The waves were crashing on the rocks
|
| Les volets claquaient sur la pierre,
| The shutters rattled on the stone,
|
| Les robinets flic-floquaient.
| The faucets cop-flocked.
|
| Tu disais quoi, tu disais rien
| What you said, you said nothing
|
| Tu attendais que ça se passe
| You were waiting for this to happen
|
| Tu disais «j'ai peur de rien»
| You said "I'm afraid of nothing"
|
| C’est infernal cette affaire,
| This thing is hellish
|
| Comme un coup de bilboquet
| Like a shot of bilboquet
|
| La tempête décharnait les arbres,
| The storm was stripping the trees,
|
| Et tout le monde qui paniquait
| And everybody freaking out
|
| Ou avait peur
| Or was scared
|
| Tu disais quoi, tu disais rien
| What you said, you said nothing
|
| Tu attendais que tout soit terminé
| You waited for it all to be over
|
| Je disais «Aïe!»
| I was like "Ow!"
|
| Tu disais «C'est bien fait!»
| You said "Well done!"
|
| C’est infernal cette affaire
| This thing is hellish
|
| Comme un coup de bilboquet
| Like a shot of bilboquet
|
| Cet interminable enfer,
| This endless hell,
|
| C’est un coup à se flinguer. | It's a kill shot. |
