Lyrics:

"Run Run"

Mets de l'huile
Ne néglige pas ta vie
C'est pas face ou pile
Tu joues, tu ries
Tu te sens fort
Ralentis
Prends le temps d'aimer les choses simples de la vie
Sans utopies
Je sais le temps est speed et
On veut tous s'en évader
Le courant nous brise en un moment
Faut pas te laisser faner
Perdre tes jours, tes années
A courir, arrête-toi et respire

Pourquoi tu run run run, never stop?
Trop déterminé, tu vises le jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're only so lonely
Cause you run run run run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises le jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're lonely, so lonely

Contrecoup
Faut tout donner pour des billets
Ça rend fou
Quelle montée de stress
C'en est trop
Tu t'entêtes
Mais tu vas y laisser ta peau
Là faut qu't'arrêtes
Mais y a ce lundi, mardi
Métro, boulot, dodo
C'est toute ta vie
C'est ce même poids sur ton dos
Jeudi hum tu cries:
"Allô, allô maman bobo"
Samedi c'est cuit
Rembobine la vidéo

Toujours tu run run run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises le jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're only so lonely
Cause you run run run run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises le jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're lonely, so lonely

Je ferme les yeux et j'm'imagine
Sur un nuage ou sur une î-île
J'aurais c'que j'veux et j'serais tranquille
Je ferais les choses doucement
La vie aurait un goût sucré
Une chanson ou deux, un ukulélé
Pas de stress, j'me laisserais aller
Au gré du vent

Pourquoi tu run run run, never stop?
Trop déterminé, tu vises le jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're only so lonely
Cause you run run run run, never stop
Trop déterminé, tu vises le jackpot
Prêt à sacrifier tout pour ton job
Mais tu finiras lonely, you're lonely, so lonely



English translation of lyrics:



"Run Run"

Put some oil,
Don't neglect your life
It's not heads or tails,
You play, you laugh,
You feel strong,
Slow down
Take the time to enjoy the simple things in life
Without utopia
I know, time is speed and
We all want to escape from it,
The current breaks us in an instant,
Don't let yourself wither,
Lose your days, your years
By running, just stop and take a breath

Why do you run run run, never stop?
Too committed, you aim for the jackpot,
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job,
But you'll end up lonely, you're only so lonely
Cause you run run run run, never stop
Too committed, you aim for the jackpot,
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job,
But you'll end up lonely, you're lonely, so lonely

After-effects,
You have to give everything for banknotes,
It's driving you nuts,
What an increase in stress!
It's too much
You persist
But you're going to lose your life
Now, you have to stop
But there is this Monday, Tuesday
The same daily grind, (commute, work, sleep)
It's all your life
It's this same weight around your neck
Thursday, you shout
"SOS--Mommy, Help"
Sunday, it's lost
Rewind the video

Always you you run run run, never stop

Too committed, you aim for the jackpot,
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job,
But you'll end up lonely, you're only, so lonely
Cause you run run run run, never stop
Too committed, you aim for the jackpot,
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job,
But you'll end up lonely, you're lonely, so lonely

I close my eyes, and I imagine myself
On a cloud, or on a island,
I would have what I want, and peace of mind
I'd do things slowly
Life would have a sweet taste
A song or two, a ukulélé
No stress, I'd let everything go
By the wind

Why do you run run run, never stop?
Too committed, you aim for the jackpot,
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job,
But you'll end up lonely, you're only, so lonely
Cause you run run run run, never stop
Too committed, you aim for the jackpot,
Ready to sacrifice everything for your job,
But you'll end up lonely, you're lonely, so lonely
