Comme d'habitude [English translation]

I get up,

And I jostle you

You don't wake up

Like everyday1

On you,

I roll up the sheet

I'm afraid you freeze

Like everyday

My hand

Caresses your hair

Almost spite of me

Like everyday

But you,

You turn your back

Like everyday

And then,

I get dressed fast

I leave the bedroom

Like everyday

Alone,

I drink my chocolate

I am still late

Like everyday

No noise,

I leave the house

All outside is gray

Like everyday

I'm cold,

I lift my collar

Like everyday

Like everyday,

All of the day

I'm going to play

To let's pretend

Like everyday,

I'll be smiling

Yes, like everyday,

I'll be seen laughing

Like everyday,

Again I will live

Yes, like everyday.

And so,

Day will go away

I, I will come back

Like everyday

You,

You'll be not there

Not still back yet

Like everyday

Alone,

I'll be asleep

In this big cold bed

Like everyday

My tears,

I will hide them

Like everyday

Like everyday,

Even at night

I'm going to play

To let's pretend

Like everyday,

You'll come home

Yes, like everyday,

I'll wait your back

Like everyday,

You'll send me a smile

Yes, like everyday.

Oh, like everyday,

You'll undress alone

Yes, like everyday,

You'll come to sleep

Yes, like everyday,

We'll peck a smack

Like everyday.

Oh, like everyday,

We will let's pretend

Yes, like everyday,

The love we'll make

Yes, like everyday,

We will let's pretend

Oh! Like everyday ...

1. I voluntarily replaced "as usual" with "like every day" for the rhyme, of course, and for the fluidity of the translation. But ultimately, it comes down to the same because the author highlights his daily life, the repetition of his days which are all alike, and obliges him, whether in the professional world or his privacy, to wear the mask of decency.
