Le blues du businessman [English translation]

I am successful in business

I am successful in love

I often change assistants

My office is at the top of a tower

From where I see the city upside down

From where I control my universe

I spend half of my life in the skies

Between New York and Singapore

I always fly first class

I have a second home

In every Hilton of the world

I can't stand misery

At least, are you happy?

I'm not happy but I look the part

I lost my sense of humor

When I got my sense of business

I made it and I am proud

But deep down I have one regret

I'm not doing what I wished I did

That's how it is, fellow

In life you do what you can

Not what you want...

I wish I was an artist

To be able to do my act

When the plane lands on the runway

In Rotterdam or in Rio

I wish I was a singer

To be able to shout who I am

I wish I was an author

To create my own life, to create my own life

I wish I was an actor

To be a new man everyday

And find myself handsome

On a big colorful screen, on a big colorful screen

I wish I was a artist

To have the whole world to reshape

To become an anarchist

And live like a millionaire, and live like a millionaire

I wish I was an artist

So I can say why I exist
