[English]

Bébé comme un enfant qu'on déguise

Tu pleures et pleure encore

La rigueur est de mise

Un souffle au coeur encore

Oh j'aime

J'aime pas quand tu files

Quand tu t'habilles en 4secondes

Retourne le vinyle

Eteins ta dernière blonde

Kiss, me forever

Ecris au lipstick

Kiss, me forever

Au rouge métallique

Toujours tu pars

Sans laisser de mot

C'est comme une signature

Agrafé dans le dos

Cicatrices et morsures

J'ai, les clefs de la punto

L"amour est dans le coffre

Y a mon disque de Renaud

Tiens d'ailleurs je te l'offre

Kiss, me forever

Ecris au lipstick

Kiss, me forever

Au rouge métallique

Kiss, me forever

Kiss, me forever

Kiss, me forever

Ecris au lipstick

Kiss, me forever

Au rouge métallique

Kiss, me forever

Ecris au lipstick

Kiss, me forever

Au rouge métallique

Kiss!
