Flipper - Live 1980

On te donne trois balles, on te donne trois balles
On te donne trois balles, la première t′es un môme
Un môme, un môme
So childly, very little one
Tu prends la cadence, tu entres dans la danse
Dans la violence dans chocs, tu comprends ta chance
Dit-moi
Tu sais maintenant comment, tu sais maintenant comment
Tu sais maintenant comment, ton histoire commence

On joue sa vie comme on joue au flipper
Déjà tout môme on flippe de bumper en bumper
On gagne on perd, et toujours on espère
Pouvoir s'en refaire une petite
Gratuite, gratuite, gratuite

On te donne trois balles, on te donne trois balles
On te donne trois balles, la deuxième t′es un grand
Un homme, un homme, un homme, un homme, un homme
I'm a man, I'm a man, very strong yeah
Il faut te démerder, tu commences a ruser
Il faut te démerder, tu commences a ruser
Tu cherche un abri et quand tu l′as trouvé
Tu te vois éjecter, à vitesse grand V
Vers le bumper d′en face, qui t'attend dans l′impasse
Vers le bumper d'en face, qui t′attend dans l'impasse

On joue sa vie comme on joue au flipper
Déjà tout môme on flippe de bumper en bumper
On gagne on perd, et toujours on espère
Pouvoir s′en refaire une petite
Gratuite, gratuite

Flipper - Live 1980

They give you three balls, they give you three balls
They give you three balls, the first you're a kid
A kid, a kid
So childly, very little one
You get the rhythm, you enter the dance
In the violence of shocks, you understand your luck
Tell me
You know how now, you know how now
You know how now, your story begins

You play your life like you play pinball
Already as a kid you flip from bumper to bumper
You win, you lose, and you always hope
To be able to get a little more
Free, free, free

They give you three balls, they give you three balls
They give you three balls, the second you're an adult
A man, a man, a man, a man, a man
I'm a man, I'm a man, very strong yeah
You have to manage, you start to get clever
You have to manage, you start to get clever
You look for shelter and when you find it
You see yourself ejected, at high speed
To the bumper opposite, which awaits you in the impasse
To the bumper opposite, which awaits you in the impasse

You play your life like you play pinball
Already as a kid you flip from bumper to bumper
You win, you lose, and you always hope
To be able to get a little more
Free, free

Watch out for the tilt

Watch out for the
For studies
No, we're cooler, alright
Tilt

Hey, that was my ball, man
Go easy
Louis, Louis
You've lost your mind, haven't you?
Yes

No, I haven't lost my mind
You're the one who killed it

They give you three balls, they give you three balls
They give you three balls, the third you're old
Old, old, old, old, old, old, old
Too old, too old, too old, too old

You're very tired, you want to rest
You're very tired, you want to rest
You shake the machine, you bow your back
Then the last bumper sends you into the last hole
The last bumper sends you into the last hole
On your grave it says
On your grave it says
On your grave it says
It's more fun to compete, It's more fun to compete
It′s more fun to compete, It′s more fun to compete
It's more fun to compete, It′s more fun to compete
It's more fun to compete, It′s more fun to compete

You play your life like you play pinball
Already as a kid you flip from bumper to bumper
You win, you lose, and you always hope
To be able to get a little more
I say little, oh no no little
Heiiiin free, free, free
Free, free, free, free
