La fille de la bande [English translation]

Girls are just cry babies

And we would prefer to live as a band

For little half-assed excursions

In the shopping malls

She admired our little world

That look that says I'm not even scared

We got off with one of those blonds

That we smoke like Gary Cooper

Like Gary Cooper

I don't know which of us whistled at her

But I'll never forget her response

Three steps towards as and a slap

Without so much as a warning shot

We looked down

Having never seen a naked woman

New blood in our veins

And like that she became

The Girl in the Band

The Girl in the Band

But a band of happy,

and infatuated of course, idiots

The city, which is huge,

has become our playground

And of course it's dangerous too

But girls are far from cry babies

And we, the little shopping basket poachers

Hot-headed but happy,

Have slipped on these tights

It was the time of Place Vendôme1

And of the scrap merchant's union

Of what to give our girl2

A Goldwyn Mayer life

Goldwyn Mayer3

The Girl in the Band

But a band of happy,

and infatuated of course, idiots

The city, which is huge,

has become our playground

And of course it's dangerous too

We should have seen the gold leaf

Clinging onto her mink coat

Making the sound of locks

That secure prisons

Of course the cell is grim

But we have this cover girl

Who looks at us from her poster

But is she really Katharine Hepburn

Or the The Girl in the Band

The Girl in the Band

But a band of happy,

and infatuated of course, idiots

The city, which is huge,

has become our playground

And of course it's dangerous too

The Girl in the Band

But a band of happy,

and infatuated of course, idiots

The city, which is huge,

has become our playground

And of course it's dangerous too

1. A square in the 1st arrondissement in Paris2. La Môme is a sort of nickname for Edith Piaf, I don't think this is meant as a reference to that, but I thought it might be worth mentioning3. Pressumably a reference to MGM, the American media company
