J'aime plus Paris [English translation]

I refuel the car

I think of vacations

I am a big-shot (1)

and I'm not alone

The sky is grey

The people embittered

I'm in a hurry

I'm stressed

I don't like Paris anymore

As we run throughout the city, it gets boring

I see too many people,

I don't care about their lives

I haven't got the time

I'm much happier in bed

Delanoë has prepared an ark (2)

that we want to steer

Even the golden Paris is dead

He's five out, Paris is lulled to sleep (3)

I feel as if I'm choking

I run out of breath

I'm very pale

sitting on a small ottoman

I like Paris more

but it's not like one begins to (like it)

I want to see someone

cut the phone line

and live like nuns.

I speak not of John. (4)

I don't like Paris anymore

Past the ring-road (5)

The poor devils

didn't have the sensibility to become millionaires

For these outcasts,

The City of Light is at the end of the RER (6)

There's more than just hot girls, there's pussies (7)

The city beneath the bells, it belongs to the paupers

It's finished, the Paris of Audiard (8)

But today, you see Hédiard's version (9)

I don't like Paris anymore

but it's not like one begins (to like it)

I see too many people

I don't care about their lives

I haven't got the time

I'm much happier in bed

I'd be fine, look at the ocean

Everybody, shut up

I'll go drink a beer

and walk the earth

I don't like Paris anymore

but it's not like one begins (to like it)

I see too many people

I don't care about their lives

I haven't got the time

I'm much happier in bed

But Paris is my life

I bet it's the most beautiful city

shrouded in boredom

I don't like Paris anymore
