Electric Cité [English translation]

Shadows of love and faces.

Saw your blue eyes in a café

Just a gesture, you do the rest

Drank your green eyes in a black cofee

We used to dance on machines

We used to sing in clubs

Giving the best we got

Turning our bodies int watchers1

City, I have a right to be here2

City, your electricity

makes me all excited!

That's what density is.

Dance, dance, dance.

Let's look for shape amidst the puzzle

Let's change shape

We won't ever be alone again

The animal under your skin

hurts a little less.

We used to dance on machines

Dancing, dancing.

We used to sing in clubs

Singing, singing

made us give our best

Giving, giving

took us, took us, took us... some place else!

City, I have a right to be there

City, your electricity

makes me all excited!

City, and that's density

City, your elasticity

City, your electricity

only incites me.

City, that's the dance city3

City, conniving,

City, complex

City, capacity

Elasticity, ferocity, simplicity, necessity

Viva, viva city4

Viva... (x4)

City

Viva... (x4)

City, your electricity, city

City, that's density, city

Dance... (x4)
