Côté passager [English translation]

The asphalt flies by

Her body shakes, the backround changes, she feels free

Pictures slide by, movies from the 70's

For a soundtrack I browse through a box of LPs

Marylin for an heroin, Ford Mustang on the concrete

A heartless James Dean on the driver side

A bewitched girl on the passenger side

Living to the full1, last hours of freedom

A heartless James Dean on the driver side

A bewitched girl on the passenger side

Living to the full, last hours of freedom

For his stone heart she'll follow him anywhere

For his years as a gangster, his bad boy stare

She powders her nose2, he draws his weapon3

Her grants her a kiss, that always disarms her

A heartless James Dean on the driver side

A bewitched girl on the passenger side

Living to the full, last hours of freedom

A heartless James Dean on the driver side

A bewitched girl on the passenger side

Living to the full, last hours of freedom

And since he's never afraid of anyone

she surrenders herself to him, surrenders

dreaming of mad love while he doesn't care for anything

A heartless James Dean on the driver side

A bewitched girl on the passenger side

Living to the full, last hours of freedom

A heartless James Dean on the driver side

A bewitched girl on the passenger side

Living to the full, last hours of freedom
