Elle avait sorti son arme avant lui
Un couteau de cuisine
Les enfants étaient endormis
Plus de colère
Plus un bruit
À peine un instant de sursis
Une sirène au loin retentit
Savourant ce noble silence
Sur la piste de danse
Seule face au vertige infini
Plus de colère
Plus un bruit
À peine un instant de sursis
Une sirène au loin retentit
Fais toi belle l'ouverture du grand bal c'est aujourd'hui
Dansons mes enfants car papa est au paradis
Bientôt un prince charmant viendra
Chercher maman
Le disque a fini de tourner
Le beau prince a sonné
S'approchant tout près de maman
Passe à son poignet
Un bracelet
Enchaînée au bras du marquis
C'est le plus beau jour de sa vie
Looking for mom
She had pulled out her gun before him
A kitchen knife
Children were asleep
No more anger
No more noise
Barely a moment's reprieve
A siren in the distance sounds
Savoring this noble silence
On the dance floor
Alone in the face of infinite vertigo
No more anger
More noise
Barely a moment's reprieve
In the distance a siren sounds
Make yourself beautiful, today is the opening of the grand ball
Let's dance my children because dad is in paradise
Soon a charming prince will come
Looking for mom
The record has finished spinning
The handsome prince has rang
Approaching close to mom
Passing on her wrist
A bracelet
Chained to the Marquis's arm
It's the happiest day of her life
