Pourquoi Tu Joues Faux [English translation]

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you play loudly

Why isn't it pretty

What you play for me again

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you pay loudly

Why isn't it pretty

On the transistor

Again the same, again the same sound

The same theme, the same song

What's the sense of your melody

What you're expressing to me, what you're shouting at me

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you play loudly

Why isn't it pretty

What you play for me again

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you pay loudly

Why isn't it pretty

On the transistor

And the same A and the same E

Same tralala, same tonality

The same voice in the same microphone

Same noise in the echo chamber

Beautiful lyrics, beautiful effect

But too many B flats, too many pauses

Beautiful words, beautiful partition

But too many flutes, too much violin

Lower the sound, lower the tone, lower the voice, the saturation

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you play loudly

Why isn't it pretty

What you play for me again

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you pay loudly

Why isn't it pretty

On the transistor

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you play loudly

Why isn't it pretty

What you play for me again

Why do you play out of tune

Why do you pay loudly

Why isn't it pretty

On the transistor

It's out of tune your note, it's out of tune your trumpet

The more you recite, the more you repeat

It's out of tune, your flute, your nonsense

Shush, stop
