Le jazz et la java [English translation]

When jazz is

when jazz is here

java goes a-

java goes away

There is a storm coming

There is trouble bre-

wing between jazz and java

Every day a bit more here's jazz settling

So, in a rage, java clears off

Her small ass all rustled under her slit skirt

She squeezes her gauloise and walks out in the street

When jazz is

when jazz is here

java goes a-

java goes away

There is a storm coming

There is trouble bre-

wing between jazz and java

When I listen to a percussion solo

Her's java grumbling in the name of motherland

But when I shout kudos to the accordeonist

Here's jazz giving me a roasting and calling me a racist

When jazz is

when jazz is here

java goes a-

java goes away

There is a storm coming

There is trouble bre-

wing between jazz and java

For me jazz and java this is all same difference

I get drunk in la Bastille and get fried in Harlem

For me jazz and java are basically just alike

When jazz says : Vas-y mec, java says : Rentre chez toi !

When jazz is

when jazz is here

java goes a-

java goes away

There is a storm coming

There is trouble bre-

wing between jazz and java

Jazz and java pals, that must be possible

To achieve this, so, I share as a brother

I give jazz my feet to beat his time

And I give java my hands for the bottom of her back.
