anti-theatricality (private / public)

 J'en ai marre* with your theatrics; your acting's a drag

It's ok on TV, but you can turn it off

Your marriage is a tragedy, but it's not my concern

I'm very superficial, I hate everything official


Your private life drama, baby, leave me out


Sentimental gestures only bore me to death

You've made a desperate appeal, now save your breath

Attachment to obligation, regret shit that's so wet

And your sex life complications are not my fascinations


Your private life drama, baby, leave me out

Oh!





* j'en ai marre = I've have it up to here.
