20 ans [English translation]

Okay, I lied

I’m not the required age

I go out, oh well

I’m 20 years old until the end of the night

Okay, I lied

I passed the age, and yes

And so too bad

I’m 20 years old until the end of the night

Okay, I lied

I’m not a VIP

I go out, oh well

I’m 20 years old until the end of the night

And when the silence is too heavy

I take my high heels and I run, I run

I flee the shadow that follows me

When the noose tightens I go out

To change dust into gold

And I dance, I dance

Shake up, shake up the world that is calm

Okay, you lied

I’m not the love of your life

And so too bad

I’m 20 years old until the end of the night

Okay, I lied

I’m afraid of death, me too

I go out and I forget

I’m 20 years old until the end of the night

Okay, I have it all wrong

I smoke, I drink too much

I go out, oh well

I’m 20 years old until the end of the night

And when your silence is too heavy

I take my high heels and I run, I run

I flee the shadow that follows me

And when my throat tightens up, I go out

To change dust into gold

And I dance, I dance

Shake up, shake up the world that is calm

And when I’m 70 years old

I’ll be more irresponsible than now

I know, I feel

I’ll put on my high heels all the time

It isn’t going to please Cinderella

If I turn into a pumpkin

That’s the reason I’ll always be there when midnight strikes
