One day I asked to read it and...
1:26:03
found out she'd sold it
1:26:07
Your parents say you always lie
1:26:11
I lie... once in a while
1:26:14
At times, if I told the truth
they wouldn't believe me!

1:26:17
So I tell lies
1:26:19
Why don't you love your mother?
1:26:22
At first I was placed
with a foster mother

1:26:24
When the money ran out,
I went to Grandma's

1:26:28
Then she got old
and couldn't keep me so...

1:26:31
I went to live with my folks
but I was already 8

1:26:35
I realized Mom didn't like me much
1:26:38
She'd nag at me
for little insignificant things

1:26:45
Then there were fights at home
1:26:48
I heard...
1:26:52
that when my mother had me
she was a bachelor mother

1:26:58
Once she fought with Grandma
and I found out...

1:27:02
she wanted an abortion
1:27:05
So I was born thanks to Grandma
1:27:08
Have you ever slept with a girl?
1:27:14
No, but I know some pals
who have and they said...

1:27:18
if I really wanted to,
I should go to rue St-Denis

1:27:21
So I went and...
1:27:24
asked a few girls
and they gave me hell

1:27:27
I got scared and left
1:27:29
But I went back a few times
1:27:31
A guy noticed me in the street
and said What're you doin' here?

1:27:35
He was a North African. I explained
and he said he knew one who'd go...

1:27:42
with young guys and all that
1:27:49
He took me to her hotel...
1:27:51
but she wasn't there that day
1:27:53
We waited an hour or 2...
then I left
