Nou Barris [English translation]
Nou Barris [English translation]
Do you remember when we lived in Nou Barris1in an apartment above the bakery,
In the armpit of the world?
And it was a shithole but we thought it had a certain charm
As strange at it sounds
And we went out every weeknight even though
We didn't have any money to spend
The world at our feet, the night is ours
The world at our feet, the night is ours
And when they cut off the electricity and the water because we always paid late
And we survived on pizza and ramen noodles
And we'd catch the last metro to Llucmajor on Line 4
Without really knowing where we'd end up
The world at our feet, the night is ours
The world at our feet, the night is ours
Isn't nostalgia funny, how it makes us think fondly of
An apartment infested with cockroaches the size of dinosaurs
And looking back, those drunken nights
A quick stop at Marsella2, then to the Fellini or the Apolo 3or anywhere
The Rambla4was ours from Canaletes to the sea
The night seemed to last forever and the future was bright
The world at our feet, the night is ours
The world at our feet, the night is ours
