I’ve never been like this, no, no Never been like this before Never been like this
I’ve never been like this, no, no Never been like this before Never been like this
This is, sometimes this is all I know
Sometimes this is all I’ve got
But it is, all that I will ever need
Someone who will stand beside me
Someone who loves me better than I do myself
And I know
I know, I know, I know, you know, I know You will never leave
Your hand upon my head
My heart upon your sleeve
I’ve never been like this, no, no Never been like this before Never been like this
And you come in close
I’ve never been like this, no, no And you close each eye
Never been like this before Never been like this
Fixes, where the pieces have become
Sometimes irretrievable
But you walk and touch with supernatural
Someone who will stand beside me
Someone who calls out of me the better life, better life, better life
And I know
I know, I know, you know, I know, I know You will never leave
Your hand upon my head
My heart upon your sleeve
And I know
I know, I know, I know, you know, I know You will never leave
Your hand upon my head
My heart upon your sleeve
I’ve never been like this, no, no Never been like this before Never been like this
And you come in close
I’ve never been like this, no, no And you close each eye
Never been like this before And you come in close
Never been like this Colour up my mind
Realise it’s one day at a time Holding your hand along the way
I know somedays I get it so wrong But I’ve not found a fuller love
In truth you found me before
So oh hey!
I’ve never been like this, no, no Never been like this before Never been like this
And you come in close
I’ve never been like this, no, no And you close each eye
Never been like this before And you come in close
Never been like this Colour up my mind
And you come in close And you close each eye And you come in close Colour up my mind

Que mon corps casque et me trahisseQue le temps passe et me flétrisse
Que ma vue perde l'horizon
Que je te laisse sans réaction
Que ma langue manque de salive
Sur tes seins en forme d'olive
Que tu me saches moins viril
Que mon cœur lâche sur ton nombril

Toi tu seras toujours

Chair et canon
Chair et canon

Quand je ne ferai plus le caniche
Que je ne te toucherai plus ma biche
Quand je ne serai plus le patron
Que je ne serai plus qu'un vieux con
Quand je serai au bord de la ruine
Et qu'on me mettra sous morphine
Quand je tomberai pour de bon
Dans un coma aussi profond

Toi tu seras toujours

Chair et canon
Chair et canon

Que mon corps casque et me trahisse
Que le temps passe et me flétrisse
Que ma vue perde l'horizon
Que tu me laisses sans érection
Que tu me saches moins viril
Que mon coeur lâche sur mon nombril

Toi tu seras toujours
Chair et canon
Chair et canon

English translation :

CANNON FODDER
May my body wither and betray me
May time pass and wilt me
May my vision lose the horizon
May I leave you without response
May my tongue lack saliva
On your olive-shaped breasts
May you know me less virile
May my heart break on your navel

You will always be
Cannon fodder
Cannon fodder

When I won’t be poodle anymore
When I won’t touch you any more my little deer
When I won’t be the boss anymore
When I will be just an old fool
When I'm on the verge of ruin
And when they put me under morphine
When I fall for good
Into a coma so deep

You will always be
Cannon fodder
Cannon fodder

May my body wither and betray me
May time pass and wilt me
May my vision lose the horizon
May you leave me without erection
May you know me less virile
May my heart break on your navel

You will always be
Cannon fodder
Cannon fodder
