Papa, why do you play
all the same old songs
Why do you sing
with the melody
Cause down the street
something's goin' on
There's a new beat
and a brand new song
He said
In my life, there was so much anger
Still I have no regrets
Just like you, I was such a rebel
So dance your own dance, and never forget
N'oubliez jamiais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
a need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
a need to disagree
when rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais
Mama, why do you dance
to the same old songs
What is this game
searching for love or fame, it's all the same
one of these days you say that love will be the cure
F
