Dégénérations lyrics
Original French lyrics	English translation	Vulgar Moricounien Latin	Articulate Moricounien Latin
Ton arrière-arrière-grand-père il a défriché la terre
Ton arrière-grand-père il a labouré la terre
Et pis ton grand-père a rentabilisé la terre
Pis ton père il l'a vendue, pour devenir fonctionnaire
Et pis toi mon p'tit gars tu sais pus c'que tu vas faire
Dans ton p'tit trois et d'mie, ben trop cher fret en hiver
Il te vient des envies de dev'nir propriétaire
Et tu rêves la nuit d'avoir ton petit lopin d'terre.	Your great-great-grandfather, he cleared the land
Your great-grandfather, he worked the land
And your grandfather made the land profitable
And your father sold it to become a civil servant
As for you, my boy, you don't know what you're gonna do
In your small one-bedroom way too expensive, cold in the winter
Wishes come to you of becoming a land owner
And you dream at night of owning a small plot of land.	Tui major-major-grandpater: habui purgatus la terra
Tui major grandpater: habui laboratus la terra
Et tunc tui grandpater progressus est cum la terra
Tunc tui pater la vendidi, pr'es' functionarius
Pro tu, meus homo, ne scis pro quid ad facere
In tui parvus tenemens tal expensivus et frigus in hiems
Desideria te propinquant d'esse proprietarius
Et somnias in nox d'abere un parvus agellus	
Ton arrière-arrière-grand-mère elle a eu quatorze enfants
Ton arrière-grand-mère en a eu quasiment autant
Et pis ta grand-mère en a eu trois c'tait suffisant
Pis ta mère en voulait pas, toi t'étais un accident
Et puis toi, ma p'tite fille, tu changes de partenaire tout l'temps
Quand tu fais des conn'ries, tu t'en sors en avortant
Mais y a des matins, tu te réveilles en pleurant
Quand tu rêves la nuit, d'une grand' table entourée d'enfants	Your great-great-grandmother, she had fourteen children
Your great-grandmother had almost as many
And your grandmother had three; it was enough
And your mother didn't want any; you were an accident
As for you, my girl, you change partners all the time
When you do something stupid, you get out of it with an abortion
But there are mornings, when you wake up crying
When you dream at night of a big table surrounded by kids	 	
Ton arrière-arrière-grand-père a vécu la grosse misère
Ton arrière-grand-père il ramassait les cennes noires
Et pis ton grand-père, miracle, y est devenu millionnaire
Ton père en a hérité il a tout' mis dans ses RÉER
Et pis toi p'tite jeunesse tu dois ton cul au ministère
Pas moyen d'avoir un prêt dans une institution bancaire
Pour calmer tes envies de "hold-uper" la caissière
Tu lis des livres qui parlent de simplicité volontaire	Your great-great-grandfather lived through the Great Depression
Your great-grandfather held onto dirty money
And your grandfather: miracle - became a millionaire
Your father inherited it and put all of it into his retirement fund
And you, youngling, you owe your ass to the government
With no means of getting a loan from a bank
To calm your desires to stick up a cashier
You read books about voluntary simplicity	 	
Tes arrière-arrière-grands-parents ils savaient comment fêter
Tes arrière-grands-parents ça swinguait fort dans les veillées
Pis tes grands-parents ont connu l'époque yé-yé
Tes parents c'tait les discos c'est là qu'ils se sont rencontrés
Et pis toi mon ami qu'est-ce que tu fais de ta soirée ?
Éteins donc ta TV faut pas rester encabané
Heureus'ment que dans vie certaines choses refusent de changer
Enfile tes plus beaux habits car nous allons ce soir danser	Your great-great-grandparents knew how to feast
Your great-grandparents swinged hard at parties
And your grandparents knew pop, yay-yay!
T'was in a disco that your parents came to know each other
And you my friend, what are you gon do this night?
Turn off then the TV; don't shut yourself in
Fortunately in life some things refuse to change
Wear your best clothes, because we'll be dancing all night
