You won't ever amount to much
You won't be anyone
Now tell me what you were thinking of,
How could you think you would be enough

It's not that you have stayed too long
And it's not that you've done something wrong
It's not your fault
That you embarrass us all

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

You've been used by an army of kings
You've been touched by the lips of a queen
Now we've all made good use of you
But you won't be needed again

So why don't you move and let someone else in
And make some room for a new harlequin
'Cause you never know when
You'll disappoint us again

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proud

Now you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and look like you should
But you could never make us proud
Hand me down

Now look at you
With your worn out shoes
Living proof evolution's through
We're stuck with you
This revolution's doomed

'Cause you're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you could never make us proud

You're a hand me down
It's better when you're not around
You feel good and you look like you should
But you won't ever make us proudSur les passerelles à l'embarquement
Populaires ou premières, derrière ou devant
On monte les malles, des quais sur le pont
On charge dans les cales de l'acier, des jurons
Ne manque plus qu'un signe, du capitaine un mot
Des cabines aux cuisines
sur le même bateau
Un doigt de champagne, un toast au départ
Dans les soutes le bagne et les heures de quart
Des soirées mondaines, des valses ou tangos
Aux ombres, à la peine, un mauvais tord boyau
En attendant l'escale, Athènes ou Macao
Sous les mêmes étoiles
Sur le même bateau
Au feu des machines, souffre matelot
Près de la piscine, les belles et les beaux
Des salles de moteurs, des salons joyaux
Ici la sueur, le plus grand luxe en haut
Mais vienne une tempête, une lame en sursaut
Toutes les âmes s'inquiètent
Sur le même bateau
Quand les astres s'en mêlent sur l'immense océan
Quand tout devient si frêle face aux éléments
Plus de rang plus de classe, plus de bagne ou de beau
Chacun la même angoisse
Sur le même bateau
