Tu T'Laisses Aller

You Let Yourself Go

It's funny how funny you are to watch
You're there, waiting, sulking
And I feel like laughing
It's the alcohol rising in my head
All the alcohol I've had tonight

To draw the courage from it
To confess that I'm fed up
With you and your gossip
With your body that keeps me wise
And takes away all hope

I've had enough, I have to tell you
You exasperate me, you tyrannize me
I endure your nasty character
Without daring to say you're exaggerating
Yes, you're exaggerating, you know it now
Sometimes I want to strangle you
God, how you've changed in five years
You let yourself go, you let yourself go

Ah! you are beautiful to watch
Your stockings falling on your shoes
And your old bathrobe poorly closed

And your curlers, what a look
I wonder every day
How did you manage to attract me
How did I court you
And alienate my whole life
Like this you resemble your mother
Who has nothing to inspire love

In front of my friends, what a disaster
You contradict me, you apostrophize me
With your venom and your spite
You could move mountains
Ah! I hit the jackpot
The day I met you
If you kept quiet, it would be too good
You let yourself go, you let yourself go

You are a brute and a tyrant
You have no heart and no soul
Yet I often think
That despite everything you are my wife
If you wanted to make an effort
Everything could fall back into place
To lose weight, do some sports
Fix yourself in front of your mirror
Put a smile on your face
Make up your heart and your body

Instead of thinking that I hate you
And avoiding me like the plague
Try to show yourself kind
Become the little girl again
Who gave me so much happiness
And sometimes like in the past
I wish that close to my heart
You let yourself go, you let yourself go
