MAITRE GIMS – Le pire (English lyrics)

Chorus :
The wort part, isn’t mankind’s wickedness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salt ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done

1st verse :
I’m posted up on my divan, I’m watching TV
Explain to me what’s going on, it’s just as if I was 10 years old
Dark is my vision, yet the sun is still around
All those people lecturing you with their mink coat
Or maybe it’s simply that we’ve lost our minds
Life : a slippery road, in what kind of world are we living in ?
Stop and, actually, the harm has been done
But Stop, stop, stop because, actually, the harm has been done

Chorus :
The wort part, isn’t mankind’s wickedness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salt ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done

2nd verse :
I sit back down on the divan, still in front of the TV
I just have to squint my eyes, there’s nothing at the orizon
I’ll explain my problems to people who are living lavish
They’ll only take me seriously if I pour gas over myself
Or maybe, it’s simply that
Not much people are interested in me
I’m maybe a market value
In the eyes of a few passer byers
Stop and, actually, the harm has been done
But stop, stop, stop because, the harm has been done

Chorus :
The wort part, isn’t mankind’s wickedness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salt ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done

Bridge :
The worst part, is not making the most out of the time we have left
The worst part, is to not realize what is happening to us
The worst part, is not making the most out of the time we have left
The worst part, is to not realize what is happening to us

Outro :
The wort part, isn’t mankind’s wickedness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salt ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
The wort part, isn’t mankind’s wickedness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salt ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
