Mes Défauts Lyrics in English Superbus

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mes Défauts by Superbus from French to English.
Thinking about getting up earlier
I don't have the time
Thinking about telling you that you're handsome
I don't have the time
Loving, giving too much
I don't have the time
Doing everything right
Thinking about folding everything faster
I don't have the time
Thinking about telling you 'I'm leaving'
A little less often
Flirting, being seduced
I don't have the time
Playing music
Yes, I have the time
These are my flaws
I'm not available
A little liar, a little megalomaniac
All my flaws
I'm personal
I have an ego, it drives me crazy
Thinking about talking to you about me
I don't have the time
Fitting you into my schedule
In my timetable
Spending time with you
Killing time
Going to the movies
Thinking about going on vacation
I don't have the time
And getting into finance
I don't have the time
Sexy when I dance
I don't have the time
Playing all over France
Yes, I have the time
These are my flaws
I'm not available
A little liar, a little megalomaniac
All my flaws
I'm personal
I have an ego, it drives me crazy
And then I leave and I come back
And I call you
Only when I'm not doing well
And then I leave and I come back
And I call you
Only when I need
These are my flaws
I'm not available
A little liar, a little megalomaniac
All my flaws
I'm personal
I have an ego, it drives me crazy

SONG MEANING

Ever feel like your planner is bursting at the seams? In Mes Défauts ("My Flaws"), Superbus turns that chaotic energy into a playful confession. The singer rattles off everything she "doesn’t have time" for: waking up early, folding clothes, watching movies, even saying "I love you." Instead, she gleefully admits she would rather make music, tour the country, and dance. With a wink, she lists her faults—being unavailable, a bit of a mytho (fibber), slightly megalomaniac—yet owns them with catchy hooks and irresistible confidence.

Beneath the bubbly pop-rock beat lies a relatable message: we all juggle priorities and sometimes let ego or ambition take the driver’s seat. The song playfully reminds listeners that acknowledging imperfections is the first step toward self-acceptance. It’s a cheeky anthem for anyone who has ever said, “Sorry, I can’t… I’m busy being me!”
