City (original)City (translation)
Le pays pardonné The Forgiven Land
Explose de fleurs blanches Explodes of white flowers
Les gratte-ciel dorés golden skyscrapers
S’inclinent vers les branches Bow to the branches
La vapeur azurée crachée par les moteurs fait rire et rêver The azure steam spewed by the engines makes laugh and dream
Près des parcs en chaleur Close to hot parks
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Des barbus impudiques Immodest bearded men
Au fourreau lamé vert In green lamé scabbard
Jouent les statues antiques Play the ancient statues
Montés sur des rollers Mounted on rollerblades
Des assassins candides candid killers
Aux tee-shirts maculés To stained t-shirts
Aux braguettes splendides With splendid flies
Font craquer les pédés Make the fags crack
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
La poudre vanillée vanilla powder
Au fort piment qui grise With hot pepper that intoxicates
Effleure les mosquées Touch the mosques
Et les coupoles grises And the gray cupolas
Un grand jardin d’enfants A large kindergarten
Qui font ce qui leur plait Who do what pleases them
Côtoie des bâtiments Next to buildings
Où roule la monnaie Where the currency rolls
Four roses dans le nez Four roses in the nose
Un Black sur le trottoir A Black on the sidewalk
Songe au milieu des pieds Think in the middle of the feet
Blancs jaunes rouges noirs white yellow red black

Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Cité c’est cité Quoted is quoted
Le printemps frais saoulant Drunk Fresh Spring
Tout grouillant d'écureuils All swarming with squirrels
Comme des chiens gourmands Like greedy dogs
Marque la fin du deuil Marks the end of mourning
Orientale écaillée Scaled Oriental
L'énorme messe en Si The Huge Mass in B
Est reine de beauté Is a beauty queen
Du continent maudit From the cursed continent
