Papa, why do you play all the same old songs
Why do you sing with the melody
Cause down on the street somethings 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 jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
need to disobey

N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
need to disagree [bad word] get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

Mamma, why do you dance to the same old songs
Why do you sing only the harmony
Down on the street something's goin' on
There's a new beat and a brand new song

She said
In my heart there's a young girl's passion
For a life long duet
Someday soon someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song and never forget

N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
need to disobey

N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
need to disagree [bad word] get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

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
I'm not sure

N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
need to disobey

N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
need to disagree [bad word] get in the way
N'oubliez jamais
