Je me suis fait tout petit [English translation]

I never took off my hat

to anyone

Now I crawl, looking pretty,

When she rings me.

Once a vicious dog,

She now has me eat out of her palm,

I had fangs of a wolf, only to barter them

For baby teeth.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who shuts her eyes when you lay her down.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who says "Mama!" when you touch her.

I was a tough cookie, yet she converted me,

a smart cookie.

And I fell down still hot, well done,

On her mouth.

With baby teeth when she smiles,

When she sings.

And fangs of a she-wolf when she's furious,

When she's mean.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who shuts her eyes when you lay her down.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who says "Mama!" when you touch her.

I submit to her, I run softly,

Under her rule.

For her jealousy runs beyond everything,

And even worse than that.

A nice periwinkle that seemed to me

Even prettier than she

The nice periwinkle one day died for that

Under the blows of her parasol.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who shuts her eyes when you lay her down.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who says "Mama!" when you touch her.

All the sleepwalkers, all the magicians

Told me without malice

That, in her crossed arms' embrace,

I would suffer my last ordeal.

Some are worse and some better

But all in all,

It's should you hang yourself here or elsewhere,

If you should hang yourself.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who shuts her eyes when you lay her down.

I made myself tiny in front of a doll

Who says "Mama!" when you touch her
