La fête continue [English translation]

The party's in full blast, music and roundabouts,

Candies, shotguns, fortune tellers, naked ladies,

From the morning to the evening, it's long parade:

Songs and swings, the party goes on..

Downstairs, kids are whining.

Daddy's sick, Mommy's gone.

He beats the hell out them

But the noise of the party cover their cries.

Upstairs, two young ones. You should see how much they're in love,

Yes, but their parents won't hear of it.

They decided to love one another all the same

And that they'll kill themselves..and it's for tonight...

The party's in full blast, music and roundabouts,

Candies, shotguns, fortune tellers, naked ladies,

From the morning to the evening, it's long parade:

Songs and swings, the party goes on..

Further up, it's a widow. Nothing interests her any more.

He had only one son, he was all her life.

He disappeared, with the register.

Since then, she cries, night and day.

The little boy who's coming back from school

Got an F, he will be punished.

And next Sunday, that's what saddens him,

Instead of going to the party, he will stay home.

The party's in full blast, music and roundabouts,

Candies, shotguns, fortune tellers, naked ladies,

From the morning to the evening, it's long parade:

Songs and swings, the party goes on..

Across the street, an old couple, very friendly,

has lost there daughter twenty five years ago.

They have only one hobby, table-turning.

Spirit, are you there?..And they're happy.

And I, like everyone else, I witness these sad stories,

And I close my eyes, I think of my happiness.

We gave ourselves to each other, body and soul.

We're much to happy to care.

The party's in full blast, music and roundabouts,

Candies, shotguns, fortune tellers, naked ladies,

From the morning to the evening, it's long parade:

Songs and swings, the party goes on..
