Eh toi, dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Même si c'est un mensonge
Et qu'on n'a pas une chance
La vie est si triste
Dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Tous les jours sont les mêmes
J'ai besoin de romance

Un peu de beauté plastique
Pour effacer nos cernes
De plaisir chimique
Pour nos cerveaux trop ternes
Que nos vies aient l'air
D'un film parfait!

Eh toi dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Même si c'est un mensonge
Puisque je sais que tu mens
La vie est si triste
Dis-moi que tu m'aimes
Oublions tout nous-mêmes
Ce que nous sommes vraiment

Amoureux solitaires
Dans une ville morte
Amoureux imaginaires
Après tout qu'importe!
Que nos vies aient l'air
D'un film parfait!
