Je Ne Veux Pas Travailler

Édith Piaf Édith Piaf

I Don't Want to Work

My room is shaped like a cage
The sun reaches its arm through the window
Hunters at my door
Like little soldiers
Who want to take me

I don't want to work
I don't want to have lunch
I just want to forget
And then I smoke

I've already known the scent of love
A million roses
Would not smell as much
Now just one flower
In my surroundings
Makes me sick

I don't want to work
I don't want to have lunch
I just want to forget
And then I smoke

I'm not proud of it
Life that wants to kill me
It's magnificent
To be nice
But I never know it

I don't want to work
I don't want to have lunch
I just want to forget
And then I smoke

I'm not proud of it
Life that wants to kill me
It's magnificent
To be nice
But I never know it
