Genius English Translations
Maître Gims - Le Pire (English Translation)
[Chorus]
The wort part, it's not mankind’s meanness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids are asking me :
“Why is the sea water salty ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done

[Verse 1]
I’m posted up on my divan, I’m watching the TV
Explain to me what’s going on, it’s just as if I was 10 years old
Dark is my vision, yet the sun is still around
All those people lecturing you with their mink coat
Or maybe it’s simply that we’ve lost our minds
Life : a slippery road, but what kind of world are we living in ?
Stop and, actually, the harm has been done
But stop, stop, stop because, actually, the harm has been done

[Chorus]
The worst, isn’t mankind’s meanness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salty ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done

[Verse 2]
I sit back down on the divan, still the TV
I just have to squint my eyes, nothing at the horizon
I’ll explain my problems to people who are living lavish
They’ll only take me seriously only if I pour gas over myself
Or maybe that, simply
Not much people are interested in me
I’m maybe nothing but a market value
In the eyes of a few passer byers
Stop and, actually, the harm has been done
But stop, stop, stop because, the harm has been done

[Chorus]
The worst, it's not mankind’s meanness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids are asking me :
“Why is the sea water salty ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done

[Bridge]
The worst, is not making the most out of the time we have left to live
The worst, is to not realize what is happening to us
The worst, is not making the most out of the time we have left to live
The worst, is to not realize what is happening to us

[Outro]
The worst part, isn’t mankind’s meanness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salty ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
The wort part, isn’t mankind’s meanness
But the silence from the other people who act like they’re hesitating
And whenever the kids ask me :
“Why is the sea water salty ?”
I’m forced to answer that the fishes cried too much
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
Eh eh eh eh
Tell me what have we done
