Downtown there will always be a corner of the wall,
for the exile of radiant children.
Downtown there will always be a piece of grey wall,
for all those who like you are rebels and clandestine.
Un taxi jaune éventre la nuit et l'Etrangère en surgit.
Le mascara coule de ses yeux gris et se mélange à la pluie.
Dans les rues,
Elle ressent l'énergie,
bouleversante odeur de vie.
Le taxi la dépose au Chelsea,
où elle venait avec Lui.
A la radio Call me de Blondie,
contagieuse mélodie, congédie sa mélancolie.
Downtown il y aura toujours un coin de mur bleu,
pour y adosser l'exil des enfants radieux.
Downtown il y aura toujours un bout de mur gris,
pour tous ceux-là qui comme toi, ne sont pas d'ici.
Et dont le destin est d'être clandestin.
Carnet de poèmes et croquis,
pour qui entendra son cri.
Champagne et comatose aux barbis et leur douce anesthésie.
A la radio Call me de Blondie,
contagieuse mélodie, congédie sa mélancolie.
Downtown il y aura toujours un coin de mur bleu,
pour y adosser l'exil des enfants radieux.
Downtown il y aura toujours un bout de mur gris,
pour tous ceux-là qui comme toi sont des insoumis.
Et dont le destin est d'être clandestin.
Downtown il y aura toujours un bout de mur gris,
pour tous ceux-là qui comme toi ne sont pas d'ici
et dont le destin est d'être clandestin.
Downtown there will always be a corner of the wall,
for the exile of the radiant children to lean.
Downtown there will always be a piece of grey wall,
for all those who like you are rebels and clandestine.
