Chloe940 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) New song, yesterday in Paris: A animated lyric video for J’ai Pas Envie was posted on MIKA VEVO, but the video is not avaiable outside France =/ That's because it is the new French single from No Place in Heaven, but now you can watch it https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Byz74GhgJpv0QWRKSnQ4MnhiOFU/view I don't understand all the lyrics... Tu m'as offert des roses, Je t'ai envoyé dessus T'as voulu faire une pause, J'ai dit on continu T'as voulu la campagne, On habite à Paris Tu dis non, Moi je dis oui T'as voulu du Gaisbourg, Je t'ai mis Booba T'as voulu faire l'amour, On a fait la zumba T'as voulu un garçon, On l'a appelé Susie Tu dis non, Je dis oui Dire "je t'aime", c'est pas ça le problème Ecoute moi quand j'te dis, que j'ai pas envie J'ai pas envie (non j'ai pas envie) Comme les maris, qui disent oui J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie de te faire plaisir J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie, si tu m'aimes viens me le dire En chantant, Tu dis l'amour c'est pas ça mais tu vois Je suis pas le con que tu crois, cette chanson elle est pour toi T'as voulu le Pérou, t'as eu que le bonnet T'as voulu la grande roue, t'as eu le tourniquet T'as voulu un amant, j'ai dis c'est ce qu'on va voir Tu dis blanc, moi je dis noir Dis je t'aime, c'est pas ça le problème Ecoute moi quand j'te dis, que j'ai pas envie J'ai pas envie (non j'ai pas envie) De faire comme ci, comme les maris qui disent oui J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie de te faire plaisir J'ai pas envie, j'ai pas envie, si tu m'aimes viens me le dire En chantant, Tu dis l'amour c'est pas ça mais tu vois Je suis pas le con que tu crois, cette chanson elle est pour toi T'as voulu la passion, t'as eu les Mon chérie T'as voulu l'évasion, je t'ai acheté des Kiwi T'as voulu voir la mer, et on a vu la mienne Tu dis Rome, je dis Vienne Parce que j'ai pas envie...

Menthe Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 This is a nice funny song. I like MIka's voice in it: you can hear him smiling while singing. The lyrics aren't so deep or even witty all the time, but it's ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pupaclaudia Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I also like this son a lot, it sounds mischievious to my ears, but I can't understand French, so I could have misread (or misheard?) it, could anybody translate it please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyara Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) Apparently this song appeals to almost nobody, as this thread got only 8 replies. Whatever, I like it. It makes me feel bitchy while singing it. Not that you needed a song to be bitchy I like it too, by the way I also like this son a lot, it sounds mischievious to my ears, but I can't understand French, so I could have misread (or misheard?) it, could anybody translate it please? I think the lyrics on the album are a bit different and I'm not a native French speaker (corrections are welcome) but I'll try to translate it anyway, so you can get an idea. Let's see... You gave me roses, I sent you upstairs You wanted to take a break, I said "let's go on" You wanted the countryside, we live in Paris You say no, I say yes You wanted Gaisbourg, I put on Booba You wanted to make love, we made Zumba You wanted a boy, we called him Susie You say no, I say yes Saying "I love you", that's not the problem Hear me when I tell you, I don't want to I don't want to (no I don't want to) As husbands who say yes I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to please you I don't want to, I don't want to, if you love me, just tell me Singing, you say "this isn't love", but you see I'm not the moron you think I am, this song's for you You wanted Peru, you only got the hat You wanted the Ferris wheel, you got the roundabout You want a lover, I said "we'll see" You say white, I say black Saying "I love you", that's not the problem Hear me when I tell you, I don't want to I don't want to (no I don't want to) Do like this, like husbands who say yes I don't want to, I don't want to please you I don't want to, I don't want to, if you love me, just tell me Singing, You say "this isn't love", but you see I'm not the moron you think I am, this song's for you You wanted passion, you got Mon Chérie You wanted to escape, I bought some kiwis You've wanted to see mum, we saw mine [i'm not sure if he says 'mum 'or 'sea' here. I'm going for 'mum', since he then says 'mine'. Or maybe it's a pun and I have no idea how to translate that in English] You say Rome, I say Vienna Because I don't want to.

It is a pun, he's just playing with words. You wanted to see the sea (la mer), we saw (my) mother (la mère), since the two words sound the same in French.

Yes it occurred to me that it probably was a clever pun, but as I said, I didn't have the slightest idea about how to convey that in English.

kreacher Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) "You wanted Gainsbourg, I put on Booba" Is "booba" how it's spelled on the official lyrics? Booba is the name of a French rapper, do you think Mika meant him? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booba I immediately thought of this Boobah https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boohbah Either would work Edited July 8, 2015 by kreacher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chloe940 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) The song is only on the Francophone version of No Place in Heaven, I think this is the reason why not a lot of people know about it...

nuri Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) thanks a million for translating as always It was really helpful!! It's really fabulous song unfortunately I can't understand french directly so I looked up some words I thought l'evasion is restaurant http://www.restaurant-levasion.com/ because he bought Kiwi but I still can't understand. has Kiwi some nuance? like cheap or shabby?
