Lyrics and translation The Rat Pack - Glad to Be Unhappy

Glad to Be Unhappy

Heureux d'être malheureux

Look at yourself, if you had a sense of humor

Regarde-toi, si tu avais le sens de l'humour

You would laugh to beat the band

Tu rirais à en crever

Look at yourself, do you still believe the rumor

Regarde-toi, crois-tu toujours à la rumeur

That romance is simply grand?

Que la romance est tout simplement grandiose?

Since you took it right on the chin

Depuis que tu as pris ça en pleine figure

You have lost that bright toothpaste grin

Tu as perdu ce sourire éclatant de dentifrice

My mental state is all a-jumble

Mon état mental est complètement chamboulé

I sit around and sadly mumble

Je reste assis et je marmonne tristement

Fools rush in, so here I am

Les fous s'y précipitent, alors me voilà

Very glad to be unhappy

Très heureux d'être malheureux

I can't win, but here I am

Je ne peux pas gagner, mais me voilà

More than glad to be unhappy

Plus que jamais heureux d'être malheureux

Unrequited love's a bore

L'amour non partagé est une corvée

And I've got it pretty bad

Et je le ressens très mal

But for someone you adore

Mais pour quelqu'un que tu adores

It's a pleasure to be sad

C'est un plaisir d'être triste

Like a straying baby lamb

Comme un agneau errant

With no mammy and no pappy

Sans maman ni papa

I'm so unhappy

Je suis tellement malheureux

But oh, so glad!

Mais oh, tellement heureux!
