Les plaisirs démodés [English translation]

In the familiar noise of the popular nightclub

With the psychedelic glow with the weird decorum

We discover sitting on uncomfortable chairs

The last pop discs, pushed to the max

That's where we met amongst people our age

You were dressed as an Indian woman an me in a Mao suit

Since then we come back as if on a pilgrimage

To dance in a smoke you can cut with a knife

Come let's discover you and me the old-fashion pleasures

Your heart against mine in spite of the crazy beats

I want to feel my body embraced by yours

Let's dance cheek to cheek x2

Come drowned in the crowd, but separated from the noise

As if we were the only ones on Earth

Let's glide eyes half closed until the night's end

Let's dance cheek to cheek x2

On the crowded floor it's a rare show

The dancers are in a trance and the music helping

They seem sacrified to barbarian rhythms

On today's tune often as old as time

Strangers to each other but dancing together

Couples exert themselves it seems that for them

Music and love do not go together

In this darkness favorable to lovers
