On est tous le con de quelqu'un [English translation]

We're all someone's fool

So what now, you're going to give up?

Because you're not wanted around

So what now, you're going to throw it all away?

Is that it? That it only takes one wound

To leave everything behind just like that

Look well into my eyes

And tell me what you see

What now, you're going to give up on everything

For nothing now?

After so much effort?

Why are you so overcome with sorrow?

What's in your blind spot?

Apart from these assholes

You know, we're all somebody's fool

The loser, the middling, the hero

The working class, the old-fashioned, the lost soul

The righteous, the crook, the generous

The skinny, the good example, the bad example

The poor, the rich, the stranger, the enemy

The friend who means well

We are all

Someone's disappointment, good fortune and hope

The balance, the asset, the absence, the crazy one

The savior, the wild, the saved

The bombshell, the hideous, the blonde

The dimwit, the joy, the shy, the ghosted

The ex, the lover, the mistress

The blood relation, the payback for sucker punches

You know

We're all someone's fool

So what, you're going to hide?

Like a child in the woods

But life is not like the movies

We dance against each other

We love and stop loving each other

And more often than not it's not very pretty

When we're alone than being in groups of two or three

If now, I'm the pillar

I who am singing for you

I'm also the weakling sometimes

You know since the beginning of time

And no matter how it turns out

We are all somebody's fool

The scratcher, the cruddy, the mean, the liar

The scandal, the queer

The fat, the really ugly, the trauma

The unspoken dream

The weird fanatic

The other one, the idol, the bastard

The numpty at school

The profound grief

We're all someone's past, present and future

The guide, the guarantor

The Frenchman, the migrant

The giant built for adventure

The underdog, the lost soul

The one whose name will be forgotten

The less good-looking encourager

The pro, the intellectual

The shame, the failure

The guy who loses his way

You know, we're all someone's fool

Man is a wolf to man

And however it turns out

We're all somebody's fool
