Translation of the song On sait que tu vas vite artist Gérard Manset
On sait que tu vas vite
We know that you are going fast
On l'a maquillée, on l'a habillée
She was given make-up, she was dressed up
On l'a fait briller, tu vas l'essayer
She was made to glow, you are going to try her out
Mais tu n’as pas de quoi la payer
But you have nothing to pay for it
Demande le fric à ton vieux
Ask your old man for money
Et tire toi d'ici
And get out of here
Ailleurs si c'est pas mieux
Elsewhere if it’s not better
Alors tant pis
Then too bad
Même si la route est mouillée
Even if the road is wet
Mets ton ciré verni
Put on your wax coat
Paye pas ton demi
Don’t pay for your demi
Va-t-en sans dire merci
Go away without saying thank you
Et roule dans la nuit
And drive in the night
Pourtant comme on sait que tu vas vite
Yet, how we know that you are going fast
On sait que tu vas vite
We know that you are going fast
On sait que tu vas vite
We know that you are going fast
On sait que tu vas vite

Comme on sait que tu vas vite

On te guette si on t'attrape on est quitte
We are looking out for you, if we catch you we are square
On te guette si on t'attrape on est quitte
