Pourquoi certains gagnent [English translation]

She was one of those you didn't notice

Who only made waves in their coffee

Nobody saw it, yes, but it was there

She painted from the bottom of her heart

Does life separate

The good from the bad from the start?

Why some people win

and not others?

She was one of those you hardly noticed

Who bent their back in the metros

She gave time every week

To the poor people without jobs

Does life separate

The good from the bad from the start?

Why some people win

And not others?

And who are the small people?

Who are the great?

In the eyes of who?

Do we really know

Why some people win

And not others?

And not others?

She was one of those you didn't notice

And the sea is calm in her coffee

She's been gone now, for two months

And if it's news to you, I'm sorry

Does life separate

The good from the bad from the start?

Why some people win

And who are the small people?

Who are the great?

In the eyes of who?

Do we really know

Why some people win

And not others?
