    [Couplet 1]
    Est-ce que tu m’passerais une cigarette
    J’avoue je fume pas mais je peux le faire pour toi
    C’est mal, c’est mal j’irais sûrement en enfer
    J’sais plus quoi faire pour être la plus stylée ce soir

    [Refrain]
    J’ai enfilé une peau en plastique
    Pour éviter de tout casser encore
    Une fois
    J’ai enfilé une peau en plastique pour pouvoir la jeter jеter au sol mille fois

    [Couplet 2]
    Est-ce quе toi tu reconnais la silhouette?
    J’change de forme vite, vite pour ressembler à qui?
    Un jour blonde un jour brune un jour populaire
    Un jour les traits de mon visage seront ils symétriques
    Je rêve de vivre d’amour et de cueillette moi
    Ah, je vis la vie d’une autre fille c’est dommage
    Ah, je rêve de vivre d’amour et de cueillette moi
    Ah, je vis la vie d’une autre fille c’est dommage

    [Refrain]
    J’ai enfilé une peau en plastique
    Pour éviter de tout casser encore
    Une fois
    J’ai enfilé une peau en plastique pour pouvoir la jeter jeter au sol mille fois

    [Verse 1] 
    Would you pass me a cigarette 
    I admit I don’t smoke but I can do it for you 
    It’s wrong, it’s wrong I’ll probably go to hell 
    I don’t know what to do anymore to be the most stylish tonight 

    [Chorus] 
    I put on a plastic skin 
    To avoid breaking everything again 
    One time 
    I put on a plastic skin so I can throw it on the ground a thousand times 

    [Verse 2] 
    Do you recognize the silhouette? 
    I change shape quickly, quickly to look like who? 
    One day blonde one day brunette one day popular 
    One day will the features of my face be symmetrical 
    I dream of living on love and picking me 
    Ah, I live the life of another girl it’s a shame 
    Ah, I dream of living on love and picking me 
    Ah, I live the life of another girl it’s a shame 

    [Chorus] 
    I put on a plastic skin 
    To avoid breaking everything again 
    Once 
    I put on a plastic skin to be able to throw it to the ground a thousand times

    Camille Yembe is a new artist in her mid-twenties born to a Belgian mother and a Congolese father, according to a Sofar Sounds article.

    Freeze-framing an aggressively windy day, the new French-speaking singer Camille Yembe seems to place the voices in her head on an undeserving pedestal… making her astonishingly relatable and vulnerable in her debut solo track ‘Plastique’.

    “She’s striking!”, I thought. “How could she not see what I see?”

    The truth is, sometimes, we can’t see what others see. If you don’t speak French and cannot understand what the song is about, I’ve got you covered. You can read the French and English lyrics in this article.

    Yembe has been featured on other recording artists’ songs as a feature (See ‘4 Saisons’ by GAN) officiating her plunge into the music business in 2015. However, the Brussels-born singer-songwriter appears to have one solo release, ‘Plastique’, seemingly taking a chance to become an artist in her own right.
