Nou Barris [English translation]

Do you remember when we lived in Nou Barris1in an apartment above the bakery,

In the armpit of the world?

And it was a shithole but we thought it had a certain charm

As strange at it sounds

And we went out every weeknight even though

We didn't have any money to spend

The world at our feet, the night is ours

The world at our feet, the night is ours

And when they cut off the electricity and the water because we always paid late

And we survived on pizza and ramen noodles

And we'd catch the last metro to Llucmajor on Line 4

Without really knowing where we'd end up

The world at our feet, the night is ours

The world at our feet, the night is ours

Isn't nostalgia funny, how it makes us think fondly of

An apartment infested with cockroaches the size of dinosaurs

And looking back, those drunken nights

A quick stop at Marsella2, then to the Fellini or the Apolo 3or anywhere

The Rambla4was ours from Canaletes to the sea

The night seemed to last forever and the future was bright

The world at our feet, the night is ours

The world at our feet, the night is ours
