Paroles et traduction Michel Delpech - Mon ami est ridicule

Mon ami est ridicule

Mon ami ne veut plus qu′on l'appelle monsieur
Ça lui donne envie de se faire teindre
Mon ami dit que le monde se divise en deux
Se divise en jeunes et en vieux
"Je suis enfin moi-même
Et c′est comme ça qu'elle m'aime"
Il parle évidemment
De cette fille de vingt ans
Qui klaxonne au volant
D′une voiture qui le ruine forcément
"Je suis enfin moi-même
Et c′est comme ça qu'elle m′aime"
Il parle sexuellement d'elle
Et c′en est gênant
Inventer, mentir, me vanter
Il voudrait que j' le suive
Pour me trouver marrant
Je ris en sa présence
Mon ami est ridicule
Je manque d′indulgence
Mon ami est si crédule
Mon ami ne veut plus qu'on l'appelle monsieur
Il est si sûr de lui
Que son gourou c′est lui
Il est toujours joignable
À portée des portables
Son régime
Son retour à la gym
Il voudrait que j′ le suive
Que je montre les dents
Je ris en sa présence
Mon ami est ridicule
Je manque d'indulgence
Mon ami est si crédule
Mon ami ne veut plus qu′on l'appelle monsieur

My Friend Is Ridiculous

My friend doesn't want to be called "sir" anymore
It makes him want to dye his hair
My friend says the world is divided into two
Divided into the young and the old
"I'm finally myself
And that's how she loves me"
He's obviously talking about
That twenty-year-old girl
Who honks the horn at the wheel
Of a car that's ruining him financially
"I'm finally myself
And that's how she loves me"
He talks about her sexually
And it's embarrassing
Inventing, lying, bragging
He wants me to follow him
So I'll find him funny
I laugh in his presence
My friend is ridiculous
I'm lacking in indulgence
My friend is so gullible
My friend doesn't want to be called "sir" anymore
He's so sure of himself
That his guru is himself
He's always reachable
Within reach of cell phones
His diet
His return to the gym
He wants me to follow him
To show my teeth
I laugh in his presence
My friend is ridiculous
I'm lacking in indulgence
My friend is so gullible
My friend doesn't want to be called "sir" anymore
