Coton Ouaté Lyrics in English Bleu Jeans Bleu

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Coton Ouaté by Bleu Jeans Bleu from French to English.
Hey! Is it cold?
You comfy in your sweatshirt?
Hey! Looks like it's cold
You comfy in your sweatshirt?
If it's nice out
But it sure doesn't look warm
I stand in front of my bay window
To figure out if it's a day
For a sweater or a K-Way
I trust the least-dressed passerby
That's when I open my window, no shame
I ask him like he's my buddy, I say
Hey! Is it cold?
Are we good with just a sweatshirt?
Hey! Looks like it's cold
You comfy in your sweatshirt?
When you're unsure about your outfit
Watch people walk down the street
A V-neck or turtleneck, tank top or lined coat
Is it a good day to go out in a bustier
Capris or pants, thick long johns or nylon tights
A good pair of Kodiaks or white socks in your sandals
We let ourselves be swayed by how folks dress
But why spy in secret, there's no shame in being a sneaky weasel, just say
Hey! Is it cold?
Are we good with just a sweatshirt?
Hey! Looks like it's cold
You comfy in your sweatshirt?
Hey! Is it cold?
Are we good with just a sweatshirt?
Hey! Looks like it's cold
You comfy in your sweatshirt?

SONG MEANING

Ever stand in front of the window, coffee in hand, torn between a sweater and a rain jacket? That is exactly where Coton Ouaté plants us. With a playful shout of “Heille! Fait-il frette?” the singer checks in with random passers-by to find out if a simple cotton hoodie will do the trick. Instead of opening a weather app, he opens the window and turns the sidewalk into his personal forecast, judging the temperature by whoever looks the least bundled up.

The song celebrates those funny little moments when we crowd-source fashion and comfort. Should it be a V-neck, a turtle-neck, Kodiak boots or sandals with socks? Bleu Jeans Bleu turns this everyday dilemma into a catchy, call-and-response anthem that invites you to join the street-level weather report. It is a reminder that feeling good in your clothes can be as easy as asking, with a grin, “T’es-tu ben dans ton coton ouaté?”
