Quand on arrive en ville [English translation]
Quand on arrive en ville [English translation]
When everyone is soundly asleep
In the city suburbs
It’s time for the zonards1
To get downtown
Who is raping the girls
In the car parks at night?
Who sets fire to the buildings?
It’s always the zonards
So panic fills the boulevards
When we get into town
When we get into town
Everybody switches sidewalks
We may not look manly
But we are scary to see
Men in makeup
They may make people laugh
But when they see blood
On our razor blades
It’s like a lightning bolt in the fog
When we get into town
Chorus:
The only thing we want
Is to be happy
Be happy before getting old
We don’t have time to wait for our thirtieth year
The only thing we want
Is to be happy
Be happy before getting old
We’re taking all we can take in the meantime
When we get into town
We come from nowhere
We live homeless
We sleep in sheds
During the day we’re quiet
Nobody notices us
At night we change skin
And we hit randomly
So get ready for the fight
When we get into town
When the underground city
Is engulfed in darkness
People wandering there
Come out on stretchers
We act without reason
It may seem strange to you
It may be that we are stupid
It may be that we are desperate
At least that’s what the evening newspapers say
When we get into town
The only thing we want
Is to be happy
Be happy before getting old
We don’t have time to wait for our thirtieth year
The only thing we want
Is to be happy
Be happy before getting old
We’re taking all we can take in the meantime
When the year 2000 comes
We’ll be 40 years old
If we don’t live now
Tomorrow will be too late
What should we do tonight ?
We might destroy everything
If you go out to dance
Don’t go home too late
We might scratch your Jaguars
Get ready for the fight
Panic is on the boulevards!
When we get into town
