La ballade de Jim [English translation]

As she left, Jim becomes nervous

Jimmy is drinking gin from its Chrysler

The peninsula, the boulevard from the sea is bloody

As she left, attention: Jimmy turns around

Last night, his heroine

It is hard to say 'Jim'

She was his soother, his heavy alcohol

As she left, attention: Jimmy did not turn around

Jimmy, you're strong, but you cry

The leather of your Chrysler

Over there, the sun collapses into the sea

Jimmy, the girls for the heart

Such as alcohol and revolvers

This is jumping in the air

Fall on the ground

Boom!

For two years, of course, Jim was working hard

For his starlet bronze speedboat

With that, he wanted a baby, without laughing

As she left, attention: Jimmy wants to die

Jimmy, you're strong, but you cry

The leather of your Chrysler

Over there, the sun collapses into the sea

Jimmy, the girls for the heart

Such as alcohol and revolvers

This is jumping in the air

Fall on the ground

Boom!

Jimmy goes too fast, Jimmy whines

He smells her perfume on the cornice

The laces, gravel, and in the evening air

The Chrysler flew into the ferns and the lilies

Jimmy wakes up in the ideal air

The bright paradise in a hospital room

The nurse is an angel and her eyes are green

As she smiled, attention: Jimmy wants to please her
