Polichinelle

Pull the stringsTire les ficelles
Pull the stringsTire les ficelles
Your PunchinelloTon polichinelle
Will reach out his arms to youTe tendra les bras

Turn the wandTourne la baguette
And your puppetEt ta marionnette
Will tilt his headPenchera la tête
And will smile at youEt te sourira

As long as your nimble fingersTant que tes doigts lestes
Command my gesturesCommandent mes gestes
You don't care about the restTu te fous du reste
It doesn't countÇa ne compte pas

Pull the stringsTire les ficelles
And PunchinelloEt polichinelle
Will do as soon as possibleAussitôt fera
What you wantCe que tu voudras

Pull the stringsTire les ficelles

Your PunchinelloTon polichinelle
Will do a thousand turnsFera mille tours

Will tell you: I love youTe dira: Je t'aime
Will hide his sorrowsCachera ses peines
Will hide his hatredCachera sa haine
Under the words of loveSous les mots d'amour

I will go into the worldJ'irai dans le monde
So that you in the shadowsPour que toi dans l'ombre
You have the triumphTu aies le triomphe
To which you are entitledAuquel tu as droit

Your PunchinelloTon polichinelle
Will be so zealousFera tant de zèle
As soon as we are seenQue dès qu'on nous verra
We will applaud youOn t'applaudira

Do you even knowSais-tu seulement
Do I have a heart?Si j'ai un cœur?
Do you even knowSais-tu seulement
Do I have a soul?Si j'ai une âme?

It's not plannedC'est pas prévu
In your programDans ton programme
Of magicianDe prestidigitateur

Pull the stringsTire les ficelles
Pull the stringsTire les ficelles
PunchinelloDe polichinelle
But be carefulMais prends garde à toi

Because it is possibleCar il est possible
That I free myselfQue je me délivre
Invisible threadsDes fils invisibles
Which bind me to youQui m'attachent à toi

Breaking the spellEn brisant le charme
I find a soulJe retrouve une âme
I become a woman againJe redeviens femme
I'm becoming me againJe redeviens moi

You have to take advantage of itFaut que t'en profites
We get tired quicklyOn se lasse vite
And the day will comeEt le jour viendra
Where it will breakOù ça cassera
Where it will breakOù ça cassera
Where it will breakOù ça cassera
