Qui a le droit [English translation]

I was told : don't ask too many questions

You know, little one, it's life that answers back

What is the point of wanting to know everything?

Look up, see what you can see

I was told : you must listen to your father

Mine said nothing when he left

Mum told me : you are too young to understand

And I grew up with a missing piece

Who has the right? Who has the right?

Who has the right to do this

To a child who truly believes

In what the grownups say

We spend our life saying thanks

Thanks to who? To what?

Deciding everything

For children to whom we lie

I was told that all men are the same

There are several gods, but only one sun

Yes, but the sun either shines or burns

You die of thirst or you drink bubbles

I'm sure you heard some too

Beautiful stories, yeah right.. all bullshit

So now, we are all on the road

Carrying our fears, our anxiety and our doubts

Who has the right? Who has the right?

Who has the right to do this

To a child who truly believes

In what the grownups say

We spend our life saying thanks

Thanks to who? To what?

Deciding everything

For children to whom we lie
