Letra:

[Français]

[English]

200 Watts, en paire de bottes

200 Watts, in a pair of boots

Délicate et désinvolte

Delicate and nonchalant

C'est pas des crack, quand elle me sourit

She’s not on crack, when she smiles at me

J'me détraque à coups d'insomnie

I go crazy from insomnia

Tu me plaques comme une affiche au mur

You slap me like a poster on the wall

J'porte plainte pour coups et blessures

I press charges for hits and injuries

J'étais à deux doigts de finir fou de toi

I was almost going crazy for you

Fou de toi

Crazy for you

200 Watts, en paire de bottes

200 Watts, in a pair of boots

Délicate et désinvolte

Delicate and nonchalant

Les yeux flous, elle semble si loin de tout

Her eyes are blurred, she seems so far from everything

Quand elle me fait la moue

When she pouts at me

C'est tout mon cœur qui bout

My whole heart is boiling

Cou-cou

Hi-hi

Tu me plaques comme une affiche au mur

You slap me like a poster on the wall

J'porte plainte pour coups et blessures

I press charges for hits and injuries

J'étais à deux doigts, de finir fou de toi

I was almost ready to lose myself for you

Fou de toi

Crazy for you

Tu me traques et surplombes

You track me and overshadow me

De Paris à Hong Kong

From Paris to Hong Kong

Tu m'attaques et je tombe l'honneur blessé

You attack me and I fall, wounded in honor

Tu me plaques comme une affiche au mur

You slap me like a poster on the wall

J'porte plainte, j'vais l'payer c'est sûr

I press charges, I know I’ll pay for it for sure

J'étais à deux doigts, d'y laisser tout mon bras

I was so close to losing my entire arm

Tout mon bras

My entire arm
