Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Papa, why do you play all the same old songs?
Why do you sing with the melody?
'Cause down on the street, something's goin' on
There's a brand new beat and a brand new song
[Verse 2]
(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 (Never forget)
[Verse 3]
"N'Oubliez Jamais", I heard my father say
Every generation has 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
[Verse 4]
Mama, 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 song
[Verse 5]
(She said) In my heart, there's a young girl's passion
For a life long duet
And someday soon, someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song, and never forget (Never forget)
[Verse 6]
"N'Oubliez Jamais", I heard my father say
Every generation has 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
[Verse 7]
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 so sure
[Verse 8]
"N'Oubliez Jamais", I heard my father say
Every generation has 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
[Verse 9]
Don't you ever forget, my love (N'Oubliez Jamais)
Every generation has its own way to go (N'Oubliez Jamais)
In its own, N'Oubliez Jamais (N'Oubliez Jamais)
Don't you ever, ever, ever forget (N'Oubliez Jamais)
