Default "I'm Not Twenty!" by Jazzmin

It isn't actually a translation... More my own, Alizée-inspired graphomania. But I just felt it belonged to this forum cathegory the most.

I'm not twenty!

It's not a one day tale
Rhyming with the "Love Grail"
Yet it's a longer sail
But not forever will it revail
I don't want a "lifetime"
Leading to paradise dime
All ahead of me!
It's a compromise and I'm
Like rainwater that might
Turn an ocean of glee
It's no hell anyway
You get used to that wale
If it's no lifetime, nevermind
So don't ask why

A habit is my wale!
Durance's my travail!
I'm not twenty...
My attitude's pale...
Though my manner's bare
I'm not twenty...
And her heels are high
A girl's talent to unwind
Alizé's melody
I change as I rhyme
In a yayo style
You get old at twenty...
All ahead of me!

It's not a love tale
Flowing like Adour in its vale
Yet it's an air current
Entring your place en passant
I need more, I'm attached
To it that has me stratched
All ahead of me!
Yet it's an audacious blow
Where I am, must love me and so
Even wait there for me!
