Le Jour Et La Nuit
Alain Souchon
The Day And The Night
There is the day, there is the night
There is the day and the night
Bis
During the day, they stick me to school
And... I go to the little college
Everything the teacher has in his head
Will be put into mine, Napoleon
The ancestors of Cro-Magnon,
Declensions, conjugation,
The words and their endings,
Addition, subtraction,
After a while, we get bored
And the night... the night
A big bird capable
Takes me on its blue back
We fly in the blue sky
Ah, all the planes we pass
We fly with the wind
We fly dreaming
Like Superman and Peter Pan
Jumbo the flying elephant
We jump into the void
At night, it's me who decides
During the day, would you be quiet
During the day, pack up your things
You have your homework to do
It's Voltaire's fault
Afterwards, you run in the yard
