I would like to thank my mother who fed me, who punished me
I would like to thank Molière who never received his prize
In this strange ceremony where I'm nominated for life
I am moved, it all ads up, I stand up and I smile to you
And the winner is: life, and the winner is: love
I would like to thank my death for demonstrating such patience
Way to ward off fate of being afraid with elegance
I would like to thank the friend who know better than me who I am
I kiss and dedicate him the moments I'm drunk and my childhood too
And the winner is: life, and the winner is: love
I would like to thank women and mine in particular
So much happiness and some dramas but I am only their half
A blink of an eye to my enemies who pout at me today
Without them, I think I get bored, so I am gonna say thank you
And the winner is: life, and the winner is: love
I put the hand on the heart and salute you once more
I keep my smile and my tears, I keep them for myself
And the winner is: life, and the winner is: love
And the winner is: life, and the winner is: love
