Papa, why do you play all the same old songs
Why do you sing with the melody
'Cause down on the street something' goin' on
There's a brand new beat and a brand new songIn 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 forgetN'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation ha 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 jamaisMama, why do you dance to the same old songs
Why do you sing only harmony
'Cause down on the street something's goin' on
There's a brand new beat and a brand new songIn my heart there's a young girls passion
For a life long duet
Someday soon someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song and never forgetN'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation ha 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 jamaisWhat is this game
Searching for love or fame
That's all the same
One of this days
You say that
Love will be the cure
I'm not so sureN'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation ha 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
