I Shouldn’t Care (Je m’en fous pas mal) Songtext
von Édith Piaf

I shouldnt care
What if he tells me that were through
I shouldnt care
Ill get along, I always do
Why should I care
Why beat my head against the wall
I shouldnt care at all

This was supposed to be clever
Carefree and carelessly wild
Now when he tells me its over
I fall in love like a child


I didnt care
Until the flame began to cool
I didnt care
But now Im falling like a fool
It isnt fair
And I keep saying as I fall
I shouldnt care at all

I have to work for a living
Im no Marie-Antoinette
People who work for a living
Cant run away to forget

So here I am
Not even dreams left on my shelf
How near I am
To going mad here by myself
Why did I dare
Right from the start, I swear I knew
I shouldnt care, but I do
