Charlie [English translation]

His shadow slips and the sole of his shoes slams

Charlie is caressing the sidewalk

He is only bones, mind and skin

Charlie is going to dance tonight

Come one Charlie,

Stand up straight

How beautiful it is

When it flows,

Your river of warm blood

There, they're standing at the back

Time and sound

For life, sweet little blues

Hang on to the folds

Of the melody

That doesn't know who it is following

Charlie, Charlie

Girls are melting

Old bastard

There, it flows,

The river of warm blood

His heart beating in his temples

A storm inside his stomach

Charlie goes out and gets lost

In the maze if the streets

Where a taxicab takes him

Onto its silver hood

Now in the dirty water,

She drags her pale mouth

Down in the gutter

Where it flows, where it flows

Where it flows, where it flows

The river of warm blood
