All Songs

Don't wanna be that kind of guy

Walking imaginary lines

Setting fires in paradise

 

Shoving papers off the desk

T'étais fou, t'étais fou

(You were crazy, you were crazy)

A baseball bat to the hornets' nest

T'étais fou, t'étais fou

(You were crazy, you were crazy)

Waiting around for what comes next

 

J'étais après boire

(I was drinking)

Chaque soir

(Every night)

Après jongler à vaurienne toi

(Stewing over worthless you)

T'étais ma belle tu t'rappelle?

(You were my lady, you remember?)

Mais aujourd'hui

(But today)

J'va boire pour moi

(I'm drinking for me)

 

Like red wine and candle wax

Mais tu m'as dit, tu m'as dit…

(But you told me, you told me…)

And chewing gum between the cracks

Mais tu m'as dit, tu m'as dit…

(But you told me, you told me…)

You can't avoid the simple facts

 

J'étais après boire

Chaque soir

Après jongler à vaurienne toi

T'étais ma belle tu t'rappelle?

Mais aujourd'hui

j'va boire pour moi

 

Don't wanna be that kind of guy

Walking imaginary lines

Or the girl you learn to despise?

 

J'étais après boire

Chaque soir

Après jongler à vaurienne toi

T'étais ma belle tu t'rappelle?

Mais aujourd'hui

j'va boire pour moi

 

We were in it from the beginning,

We had it all

In the midst of the muggy morning

We heard the call

Coming through to my canoe:

There was time

 

You fell asleep like a spoiled child.

I paddled on throughout the night despite my tired eyes.

The moon was gone,

Nothing to hide from.

You were mine

 

I'm gonna make it my mission

To break with tradition

And sail upstream...
