Paroles et traduction Michel Delpech - Comme on s'traite

Comme on s'traite

Comme on s′traite! Hou la la! Comme on s'traite!
C′est peu de dire, on s'traite, on n'ose même plus se demander l′heure
Comme on s′traite! Hou la la! Comme on s'traite!
Même entre amis, qu′on s'invite ou qu′on s'fête
C′est à peine si on regarde nos fleurs
Comme on s'traite! Hou la la! Comme on s'traite!
À coups d′Klaxon, de formules incorrectes
On s′acharne à blesser nos p'tits curs
On s′traite même dans les salons, toi, touche-moi pas, tu me salis!
Eh ben alors, casse-toi, pauvre con! Tout ça n'est pas joli, joli
J′te prends la place et puis j'te traite
Je fais c′que j'veux, j'te connais pas!
T′es pas heureux? Ben va t′faire mettre!
C'est pas d′la haine, c'est du rata
Comme on s′traite! Hou la la! Comme on s'traite!
C′est peu de dire, on s'traite, on peut même plus se demander l'heure
Comme on s′traite! Hou la la! Comme on s′traite!
Ah! Le venin qu'on se jette alors qu′il nous faudrait des douceurs.

How We Treat Each Other

How we treat each other! My, oh my! How we treat each other!
It's an understatement to say we mistreat each other, we don't even dare to ask for the time of day.
How we treat each other! My, oh my! How we treat each other!
Even among friends, whether we're inviting or being invited,
We barely even notice each other's kindness.
How we treat each other! My, oh my! How we treat each other!
With the honking of horns and impolite phrases,
We wound each other's hearts with such ferocity.
We mistreat each other even in polite society. Don't touch me, you're dirty!
Well in that case, get lost, you idiot! None of this is pretty, pretty.
I take your spot and then mistreat you,
I do what I want, I don't know you!
You're not happy? Then go to hell!
It's not hate, it's just spite!
How we treat each other! My, oh my! How we treat each other!
It's an understatement to say we mistreat each other, we can't even ask for the time of day.
How we treat each other! My, oh my! How we treat each other!
Oh! The venom we spew at each other when we should be offering kindness.
